DO YOU HAVE A BELLY POOCH?
It's normal to feel self-conscious about your stomach. Fat may accumulate around the middle, creating an unflattering “pooch” that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. Loose skin also gives the appearance of extra fat, even if you’re not overweight. Finally, weakened or separated abdominal muscles contribute to health issues like poor posture and urinary stress incontinence.
Fortunately, a tummy tuck can address all these issues at the same time – leaving you with a toned, tight midsection that looks amazing and feels great.
WHAT KIND OF TUMMY TUCK SHOULD I GET?
Dr. Schwartz is committed to providing personalized care, which is why a consultation is necessary before we recommend any cosmetic surgery. During this appointment, we review your medical history, discuss your desired outcomes, and perform an examination to determine the best way to move forward.
You’ll also receive detailed instructions about what to expect before and after a tummy tuck in Beverly Hills, CA – including any medications you should avoid and activities that may be restricted. Dr. Schwartz can provide before-and-after photos of previous tummy tucks to give you a realistic idea of what to expect.
HOW DOES A TUMMY TUCK WORK?
A traditional tummy tuck begins with an incision near the lower abdomen. This allows Dr. Schwartz to remove fat deposits and excess skin, tighten the underlying abdominal muscles, and contour your stomach area as needed. Liposuction techniques may be used to refine your results even further.
Incisions are usually made in areas that can be covered by a bikini bottom or underwear, making the scars less noticeable. Rest assured, Dr. Schwartz is a skilled surgeon and will do his best to minimize scarring.
WHAT DO RESULTS LOOK LIKE AFTER A TUMMY TUCK?
Tummy tuck recovery takes several weeks, and you’ll need to avoid activities like running or lifting heavy objects. Dr. Schwartz provides detailed instructions to help ensure a fast, successful recovery from cosmetic surgery. Once your body has healed, and any swelling has subsided, you’ll be able to enjoy a toned abdomen with improved muscle definition.
Results vary among patients, with some people enjoying dramatic transformations while others achieve subtle but noticeable improvements. It’s important to maintain a healthy weight for continued satisfaction. We recommend waiting until you’re done having children to undergo surgery, as pregnancy and future weight fluctuations can reverse your results.
