Tummy Tuck New Windsor by Dr. Fugo Plastic Surgery
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) in New Windsor, NY
Understanding Tummy Tuck Procedures
Sagging or loose skin around the abdomen often persists despite regular diet and exercise. A tummy tuck procedure helps smooth and flatten the belly by removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues and muscles.
Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck is designed for tightening excess skin and tissue around the abdomen, not for fat removal. Loose, sagging skin can occur due to several factors:
- Pregnancy
- Aging
- Massive weight loss
Tummy Tuck Procedure Details
Dr. Fugo performs tummy tucks by making a horizontal incision below the pubic hairline. The procedure involves repairing weakened abdominal muscles and removing excess tissue and skin. Liposuction may be used to eliminate excess fat, depending on individual needs.
Recovery and Healing
Patients can typically walk shortly after surgery, and light exercises may assist healing. Most patients require a few weeks of recovery before returning to normal routines. The surgical scar will fade over time and can be easily concealed beneath most clothing.
