Tummy Tuck Fall River, MD | Plastic Surgery of Southern New England - Russell Babbitt, MD

Understanding Abdominoplasty in Fall River

Many individuals struggle with abdominal skin laxity and muscle separation that cannot be resolved through diet and exercise alone. A tummy tuck procedure at Plastic Surgery of Southern New England offers a comprehensive solution to reshape and contour the abdominal area.

What Is a Tummy Tuck?

Clinically known as abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat while tightening or re-centering separated stomach muscles. This surgical procedure provides patients with a flatter, smoother, and more contoured abdomen.

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck Surgery

Tummy tucks are most beneficial for patients who have:

• Loose, inelastic skin that won't respond to diet and exercise
• Separated abdominal muscles from pregnancy or significant weight fluctuations
• Stubborn lower abdominal fat deposits

Types of Tummy Tuck Procedures

Plastic Surgery of Southern New England offers multiple tummy tuck techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Traditional/Full Tummy Tuck
• Mini/Partial Tummy Tuck
• Lateral Tension Tummy Tuck
• Reverse Tummy Tuck
• Extended Tummy Tuck

Surgical Procedure and Recovery

Tummy tuck surgery involves carefully planned incisions, muscle tightening, and skin removal. Recovery typically requires 2-4 weeks, with patients gradually returning to normal activities under professional guidance.

Combining Procedures

Tummy tucks are often combined with other body contouring procedures like liposuction or included in mommy makeover packages to provide comprehensive aesthetic enhancement.

Important Considerations

• Patients should be at a stable weight
• No future pregnancies planned
• Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
