The tummy tuck procedure is used at our Jacksonville Beach and Jacksonville area practice to aesthetically sculpt the abdominal area. The first place you notice a few extra pounds is usually in the stomach area. Even doing regular abdominal exercises like crunches and sit-ups, most people find it difficult-if not impossible-to shed the unwanted midsection fat commonly referred to as "tummy pooch." Abdominoplasty, also known as a "tummy tuck," can quickly and easily get rid of the unwanted pounds and inches around the midsection. Tummy tuck cosmetic surgery reduces girth and increases the definition and tone of your abs.
The tummy tuck procedure is done on an outpatient basis under anesthesia basis at our Jacksonville facility. An incision is made from one hip to the other, and skin is separated from the abdominal muscles. The muscles are tightened, the waistline is narrowed, and the skin flap is folded down in order to remove excess skin. The skin flap is repositioned and sutured closed. The tummy tuck procedure can take from two to five hours, depending on the extent of the work to be done. The most common side effects of tummy tuck cosmetic surgery are bruising and swelling, which may last about 10 days.
