Your Tummy Tuck Guide
All About Abdominoplasty
This Tummy Tuck guide will help answer the most common questions we get about abdominoplasty to get you started on your surgical journey.
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves removing excess skin and fat from the abdominal area and tightening the underlying muscles. This procedure is often sought after by individuals who have excess skin and fat in the abdominal area that cannot be eliminated through diet and exercise alone. At The Ferguson Clinic, we have the necessary experience to perform your tummy tuck, so give us a call today to learn more!
Qualified Surgeon
The first step in getting a tummy tuck is finding a qualified and experienced cosmetic plastic surgeon. Look for a board-certified surgeon, who has experience performing tummy tucks, and has a good reputation in the community. At The Ferguson Clinic, you can rely on our team of professionals and view Dr. Ferguson’s education and certifications in his bio.
Initial Consultation
During your initial consultation, our team will examine your abdomen, discuss your medical history and goals, and determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. Contact us today to learn more!
The Procedure
The tummy tuck procedure typically takes two to four hours, depending on the extent of the surgery. Your surgeon will make an incision across the lower abdomen, remove excess skin and fat, and tighten the underlying muscles.
Recovery
Recovery from a tummy tuck can take several weeks. You will need to take time off work and avoid strenuous activities for several weeks. You may also need to wear the compression garment for several weeks after the procedure.
