5/11/2023 0 Comments Tummy tuck near me![]() The Gillian Institute’s technique for the abdominal contouring is aggressive in terms of muscle wall tightening. ![]() The tummy tuck procedure is long lasting and typically a tummy tuck with muscle wall tightening is only recommended if future pregnancies are not desired*. Our doctors will recommend a specific approach at the consultation. We perform mini tummy tucks, standard tummy tucks, skin excision only tummy tucks and extended tummy tucks based on the amount of excess skin and/or stretch marks to be removed, the degree of abdominal wall looseness or separation of muscles and the patients’ desired improvements*. The incision is well concealed along the pubic area and will extend laterally but will be hidden even in a bathing suit. Liposuction may also be performed for contouring purposes to the pubic area and along the waistline in surgery during the tummy tuck procedure. A small new opening is made in the abdominal skin to bring the navel or belly button through the skin. The abdominal skin is released and pulled downward, and the excess skin is removed. The tummy tuck or abdominoplasty procedure allows our doctors to tighten the abdominal wall by using permanent sutures to bring the underlying tissue and muscle together. If you have only an extra layer of fatty tissue but no loose skin and you are not concerned with improving stretch marks or tightening the abdominal muscles then you may achieve a very nice result with liposuction alone*. Liposuction alone will not tighten the abdominal muscles and will only make stretched, loose skin overhang more after surgery. Liposuction alone for a patient who is a better candidate for a tummy tuck will not achieve an optimal result. Typically, weight loss and exercise will make the appearance of loose skin less desirable and more noticeable. ![]() It is important to realize that no amount of weight loss, weight lifting, or exercise programs will improve the appearance of excess or loose skin or separated or relaxed abdominal rectus muscles. The abdominoplasty or tummy tuck will remove stretch marks, improve excess skin or overhanging skin by tightening the skin, improve looseness of the abdominal wall or stretching of the abdominal muscle by tightening the abdominal wall, with incorporating liposuction for contouring purposes*.
