Tummy Tuck by Dr. Steven A. Fern, MD
Patients frequently seek tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, to achieve a flatter abdomen and a more defined waistline—goals that can be difficult to attain through lifestyle changes alone. This procedure is particularly effective for those who struggle with excess fat and loose skin around the waist and lower abdomen, areas often resistant to diet and exercise.
The abdomen and waistline are common trouble spots for stubborn fat accumulation. Factors such as aging, pregnancy, and significant weight loss can lead to a loss of abdominal wall tone, resulting in fat deposits, overly stretched, and sagging skin. Abdominoplasty directly addresses these issues by tightening the abdominal muscles and removing excess skin and subcutaneous fat.
Dr. Fern’s Greenwich practice, conveniently located for patients from Stamford and White Plains, offers comprehensive consultations to discuss the tummy tuck procedure. The practice also serves patients from its Manhattan location, making it accessible for those living in or visiting New York City.
During a consultation, Dr. Fern thoroughly explains what patients can expect during and after the tummy tuck surgery. The procedure involves a careful and precise approach to tightening the abdominal muscles and eliminating excess skin and fat. This results in a firmer, smoother abdominal profile.
Patients can look forward to a significant improvement in their appearance and confidence following the surgery. The tummy tuck not only enhances physical aesthetics but also boosts self-esteem by addressing areas that may have been a source of frustration.
Recovery from abdominoplasty varies, but patients are generally advised to take time off work and avoid strenuous activities for a few weeks. Dr. Fern provides detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery process.
Whether from the Stamford, White Plains, or Manhattan areas, patients can trust Dr. Fern’s expertise and dedication to delivering excellent results.

Treatment Procedure and Technique: The tummy tuck surgery starts with a detailed consultation where Dr. Fern evaluates the patient’s medical history and aesthetic goals. The procedure typically begins with an incision made along the lower abdomen, just above the pubic area. Through this incision, Dr. Fern tightens the abdominal muscles and removes excess skin and fat. The remaining skin is then repositioned for a smoother and firmer appearance.
Patients can expect a customized approach tailored to their specific needs, ensuring optimal results. The practice’s commitment to patient care and safety is evident throughout the entire process, from the initial consultation to the final follow-up visit.
