Tummy Tuck

Know Your Body Contouring Options for Achieving Firm Abdominals!

POSTED ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 2015 AT 11:54 AM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

The abdominals are one of the most troublesome areas for those trying to sculpt a firm physique. Even after consistently watching what you eat and training hard at the gym, those final layers of flab around the stomach may remain; whether this is due to factors such as age, genetics, or the effects of pregnancy depends on the individual patient. However, there are various body contouring solutions that can tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess skin from around the midsection in order to sculpt a flatter, firmer tummy.

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, can surgically tighten abdominal muscles by removing excess skin and fat around the stomach and repositioning stomach muscles to create a firm abdominal wall. Tummy tucks are ideal for patients struggling to lose those remaining layers of stubborn belly fat, even after consistent diet and exercise. Additionally, women who have endured pregnancy often have stretched stomach muscles that cannot be tightened through traditional methods. Tummy tuck surgery can tighten these areas for a firmer stomach and waistline to provide long-lasting results.

CORE Abdominoplasty

Patients suffering from loose or stretched abdominal muscles may benefit from CORE Abdominoplasty. This surgical procedure can result in a firmer abdominal profile by combining a tummy tuck with a unique technique known as the “Table Tilt Test.” During this portion of the CORE Abdominoplasty procedure, Dr. Asaadi will raise the operating table to a 45° angle in order to identify and correct any bulging that may occur when the patient is upright. The CORE Abdominoplasty technique allows for more precise results than traditional abdominoplasty procedures in which the patient is simply lying flat. Women who have stretched stomach muscles as a result of pregnancy, as well as patients whose abdominal muscles have weakened over time, can benefit from CORE Abdominoplasty.

MAsterTuck

MAsterTuck is a specialized truncal liposuction procedure targeting the abdominals, flanks, and back. MAsterTuck can effectively remove small pockets of localized fat while also tightening skin all in one procedure. MAsterTuck utilizes the VASER® LipoSelection system to separate fat cells for removal. VASER® is a minimally invasive form of liposuction—making MAsterTuck an ideal liposuction option for patients looking to minimize downtime and recovery after undergoing their body contouring procedure. Those looking to eliminate stubborn layers of fat or flabby skin from the belly, flanks, or back, can opt for MAsterTuck to achieve significant skin tightening and fat removal results.
