Abdominoplasty Quincy, MD | Dr. Fouad J. Samaha

Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to reshape and contour the abdominal area. After significant weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or aging, the skin and muscles of the abdomen can stretch, creating an undesirable appearance that diet and exercise cannot resolve.

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck

Boston Plastic Surgery identifies ideal tummy tuck candidates through comprehensive evaluations. Potential patients typically exhibit:

• Stable body weight with protruding midsection
• Excess subcutaneous abdominal fat
• Difficulty reducing abdominal size through traditional methods
• Loose or sagging skin from weight loss or pregnancy
• Overall good health with no underlying surgical contraindications

Surgical Technique

Dr. Fouad Samaha tailors each abdominoplasty procedure to the individual's unique anatomical requirements. The surgical approach involves removing excess fat and skin while strategically tightening underlying abdominal muscles. Procedures are typically performed under general anesthesia with precision and expertise.

Tummy Tuck Procedure Details

The abdominoplasty procedure involves carefully planned incisions strategically placed below the bikini line to minimize visible scarring. Surgeons meticulously remove excess skin, redistribute fat, and reconstruct abdominal muscles to create a smoother, more contoured profile.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery timelines vary based on individual healing capabilities and surgical complexity. Patients can typically expect a gradual return to normal activities over several weeks, with comprehensive post-operative instructions provided to ensure optimal healing.

Complementary Procedures

Tummy tucks can be effectively combined with complementary body contouring procedures such as liposuction to enhance overall aesthetic outcomes. During consultation, Dr. Samaha will discuss potential comprehensive treatment strategies.
