    Tummy Tuck is the best procedure to achieve a flat belly and small waist. This surgery starts with muscle repair due to multiple pregnancies and/or weight loss. It continues with pulling down and removing all excess skin. Then, the belly button is readjusted to its natural shape and location, and the surgery is concluded with two areas of Lipo in the waist and flanks. At Miami Life Plastic Surgery, patients feel more confident and ready to show off at Miami Beach once completely healed with your brand new Tummy Tuck.

    Why get a
    tummy tuck?

    A tummy tuck, which is the commonly known term for abdominoplasty, is  a surgical procedure that targets excess skin on the abdomen and the weakened lower abdominal wall. It is performed for cosmetic reasons to improve the shape and appearance of the abdomen, but also for medical reasons when extreme weight-loss or pregnancy have left excess tissue that causes discomfort or even pain while performing daily activities.Loose skin after pregnancy is one of the most common concerns and insecurities among women whose body has gone through multiple changes. Also, patients who have undergone weight-loss surgery, such as a gastric sleeve or bypass and have lost significant weight in a short period of time are left with the skin in the abdomen that doesn’t retract.
    During the procedure the patient will undergo general anesthesia and the incision will be above the pubic area. The surgeon will also reposition the skin around the belly button. A tummy tucks are for some patients the best solution since it removes loose skin, excess skin, excess fat, stretch marks below the belly button and weakened fascia. it is often performed alongside other body contouring procedures such as liposuction.

    commonly asked about Tummy Tuck

    Tummy tuck surgery or Abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that improves abdominal contours by removing excess skin and fat, but also tightens the underlying abdominal muscles. The surgeon will mark the skin from the area underneath the belly button and above the pubis, making the incisions and removing the sagging skin, repositioning the belly button and creating a flat abdomen. This procedure is popular among women who’ve been through multiple pregnancies and whose skin did not retract, and who’ve been left with muscle laxity in their abdomen. But this procedure is also suitable for people -men and women- who have undergone massive weightloss and have excess skin that needs to be removed.
    It is common to combine a Tummy Tuck with muscle repair, where the surgeon will reattach the abdominal muscles to the abdominal wall and the muscles are pulled together. Sometimes a hernia repair can be performed during a Tummy Tuck, but depending on the size and type of hernia, it will have to be done by a general surgeon.
    If you travel from out of state to have a tummy tuck procedure at Miami Life Plastic Surgery, you’ll have to stay in Miami for at least 7 days. Plan on at least two weeks of downtime before you go back to work, and at least 6 weeks before you can resume your normal activities. Take as much time off as possible, you won’t be in too much pain after the initial 2 weeks, but discomfort is common.

    In a traditional Tummy Tuck, there is Space left between the fat and the muscle, which is where fluid collects, therefore it requires drains. Usually 2 drains are placed to remove fluid that collects.

    The drain (which is a tube) is brought out through the skin, the drains have to be emptied  several times a day. Drains can be needed between 7 and 10 days (on average). They can be uncomfortable and a potential site of infection.

    With the drainless tummy Tuck no drains are used. The space for fluid to accumulate is eliminated.  After excess skinned fat is removed and the muscle is tightened (with the Corset technique) the remaining skin is attached to the muscle with sutures that dissolve within 30 days. This closes the space and leaves no room for fluid to accumulate.

    This technique also allows for the removal of additional skin which makes you flatter and tighter. Walk straight away. Less Pain, faster recovery and better results!
