Abdominoplasty Frisco, TX | Geo N. Tabbal M.D.

Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery

Tummy tuck surgery, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative procedure designed to address aesthetic concerns in the abdominal region. Many patients struggle with excess skin, weakened muscles, and stubborn fat that cannot be resolved through diet and exercise alone.

Key Benefits of Abdominoplasty

• Remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen
• Tighten weakened or separated abdominal muscles
• Create a smoother, firmer abdominal contour
• Potentially improve posture and alleviate certain back pain
• Enhance self-confidence and body image

Tummy Tuck Procedure Options

Dr. Tabbal offers two primary tummy tuck approaches: full abdominoplasty and mini tummy tuck. The appropriate technique depends on individual patient needs and aesthetic goals.

Full Tummy Tuck Procedure

In a full tummy tuck, Dr. Tabbal makes an incision below the bikini line, removes excess skin, sutures abdominal muscles, and repositions remaining skin for a more contoured appearance. Liposuction may be incorporated to further enhance results.

Mini Tummy Tuck Procedure

For patients with minimal excess skin centrally located below the navel, a smaller incision can be made, focusing on targeted abdominal contouring.

Ideal Candidates

Candidates for tummy tuck surgery are generally healthy individuals with persistent abdominal skin laxity, weakened muscles, or disproportionate abdominal contours. Typical candidates include post-pregnancy women and individuals who have experienced significant weight loss.

Recovery and Results

Recovery involves temporary activity restrictions and close monitoring by Dr. Tabbal. Patients can expect a gradual return to normal activities, with full results becoming visible as swelling subsides.
