Accumulating stubborn fat, loose skin, and weakened abdominal muscles are common concerns, especially after pregnancy or weight fluctuations.
Unfortunately, these factors can make it challenging to achieve your desired tummy shape through diet and exercise alone. If you’re struggling with excess skin, pockets of stubborn fat, lax and poor skin quality, or abdominal muscle separation (diastases), we have a solution that can transform your abdomen and renew your confidence.
Tummy Tuck at Toronto DermaPlastic Clinic can help you achieve a tighter, flatter and more defined abdomen.
Tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen to create a flatter, smoother, and more toned appearance. Our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Reza Ahmadzadeh, uses advanced techniques to repair abdominal muscles and firm the abdomen. By creating an internal corset effect, Tummy Tuck surgery enhances overall body shape and restores self-confidence.
During your Tummy Tuck, you will be sedated under anaesthesia. At the same time, Dr. Reza Ahmadzadeh carries out the details of your surgical plan. An incision in the lower abdomen is made along the bikini line. Every patient requires a unique incision length depending on the extent of correction needed. If the abdominal muscles are weakened or separated (diastasis recti), they will be sutured along the body’s midline, creating a firm, flat appearance. Excess skin and fat are removed before tightly repositioning the remaining tissue to unveil the newly sculpted contours of the tummy.
This incision extends horizontally from hip to hip and is ideal for patients with significant skin laxity and muscle separation.Â
Requires a shorter incision above the pubic area to address only the lower abdomen. It suits patients with minimal excess skin and muscle laxity below the belly button.Â
Similar to the traditional tummy tuck, this incision runs from hip-to-hip and continues further around the sides of the torso. It is ideal for patients who have undergone weight loss and may have excess skin and fat in the lower back.
Combines a vertical midline incision with the traditional horizontal incision. This technique suits patients who may have lost significant weight and have considerable excess skin in vertical and horizontal directions.
Abdominoplasty involves a vital recovery phase that differs from patient to patient. Immediately after the procedure, discomfort, swelling, and bruising are common. Compression garments will be worn to promote faster healing and reduce these side effects. Depending on the extent of the operation, your initial recovery may take 2 to 4 weeks. Intense physical activity and exercise should be avoided for several weeks. You can gradually return to work within 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the nature of your job.
After undergoing a tummy tuck, you will notice a remarkable transformation in the appearance of your abdomen. These results will continue to get better over 12-18 months. You will experience a flatter, more defined, and sculpted tummy that inspires a new sense of confidence. With a smoother, more youthful figure, you can adopt desired clothing styles and feel a radiant sense of self-assurance.
Discover a seamless unity of inner beauty and outward confidence. At Toronto DermaPlastic Clinic, our goal is to bring forth an extraordinary sense of self.
