Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) in Boulder

Understanding Tummy Tuck Procedures

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat that accumulates due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging. The procedure not only eliminates unwanted tissue but also tightens abdominal muscles, creating a smoother, more contoured midsection.

Key Benefits of Abdominoplasty

• Removes loose or sagging abdominal skin
• Corrects muscle separation (diastasis recti)
• Enhances body confidence
• Improves clothing fit and comfort
• Restores abdominal muscle strength

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck Surgery

Suitable candidates for abdominoplasty are individuals in good overall health with realistic expectations. Patients should be at a stable weight and not planning significant weight loss or pregnancy in the near future.

Procedure Overview

During a tummy tuck, Dr. Nathan Roesner carefully makes strategic incisions to remove excess skin and tighten underlying muscles. The procedure typically takes two to five hours under general anesthesia and is customized to each patient's unique body contours.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial recovery to take approximately 4-6 weeks. Swelling will gradually subside, revealing a flatter, more toned abdomen. Scarring is minimized by placing incisions along the bikini line for discretion.

Complementary Procedures

Many patients combine tummy tuck with complementary procedures like liposuction or mommy makeover to achieve comprehensive body contouring results.
