Advanced Abdominoplasty in Englewood, NJ | Norberto L Soto, MD

Understanding Tummy Tuck Procedures

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to improve abdominal aesthetics by removing excess fat and skin. The procedure can restore weakened abdominal muscles, resulting in a firmer, more contoured profile.

Types of Tummy Tuck Procedures

Dr. Soto offers multiple tummy tuck approaches tailored to individual body contouring goals:

• Full tummy tuck: Comprehensive muscle tightening above and below the belly button
• Mini tummy tuck: Targeting skin and muscle below the belly button with minimal incision
• Modified tummy tuck: Addressing specific skin or muscle concerns
• Extended tummy tuck: Addressing flanks and love handles
• High tension tummy tuck: Creating an enhanced hourglass figure

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck

Most healthy adult men and women are potential tummy tuck candidates. Ideal patients seek to tighten their abdomen after pregnancy, significant weight loss, or struggle with stubborn belly fat resistant to diet and exercise.

Mommy Makeover Considerations

For mothers whose family is complete, a comprehensive Mommy Makeover can address multiple body contouring needs. Potential procedures may include:

• Breast lift
• Breast augmentation
• Breast reduction
• Liposuction
• Various tummy tuck techniques

Patient Evaluation and Consultation

Dr. Soto recommends a personalized procedure based on individual needs and aesthetic goals. Patients should avoid scheduling a tummy tuck if planning future pregnancies or anticipating significant weight loss.
