ABDOMINOPLASTY (TUMMY TUCK) IN COLUMBIA, MO | DR. MATTHEW CONCANNON

UNDERSTANDING ABDOMINOPLASTY

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a comprehensive
surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the
middle and lower abdomen while tightening abdominal wall muscles. This
transformative surgery can dramatically improve the appearance of a
protruding abdomen, creating a more contoured and refined body
profile.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR TUMMY TUCK SURGERY

Optimal candidates for abdominoplasty include:

 	* Individuals in relatively good physical condition
	* Patients with stubborn abdominal fat deposits unresponsive to diet
and exercise
	* Women with stretched abdominal muscles from multiple pregnancies
	* Patients experiencing reduced skin elasticity

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Patients should be aware that tummy tuck surgery:

 	* Produces a permanent surgical scar
	* Requires careful timing relative to weight loss and future
pregnancy plans
	* Provides significant aesthetic improvements

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

Dr. Concannon performs abdominoplasty with meticulous precision,
typically involving a strategic incision from hipbone to hipbone. The
procedure includes separating skin from the abdominal wall, tightening
underlying muscles, removing excess skin, and repositioning the navel
for optimal aesthetic results.

PROCEDURE DURATION AND APPROACH

Complete abdominoplasty generally takes two to five hours, depending
on individual patient requirements. Dr. Concannon offers both complete
and partial abdominoplasty options tailored to specific patient needs.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Recovery from tummy tuck surgery varies by individual but typically
involves:

 	* Initial swelling and discomfort for several days
	* Potential hospital stay of two to three days
	* Gradual return to normal activities over weeks to months
	* Progressive improvement in surgical scars

LONG-TERM RESULTS

Patients can expect excellent, long-lasting results when maintaining a
balanced diet and consistent exercise regimen. The procedure
effectively addresses weakened abdominal muscles and excess skin,
providing significant aesthetic enhancement.

ABDOMINOPLASTY IN COLUMBIA, MD | DR. NADYA CLARKE

UNDERSTANDING ABDOMINOPLASTY: COMPREHENSIVE BODY CONTOURING

Modern lifestyles can create challenges for maintaining an ideal body
contour. Abdominoplasty offers a transformative solution for
individuals experiencing stretched skin, muscle separation, or
stubborn abdominal fat resistant to diet and exercise.

WHY CHOOSE ABDOMINOPLASTY?

Patients seek abdominoplasty to achieve multiple aesthetic goals,
including:

 	* Firmer, flatter abdominal profile
	* Narrower waistline
	* Improved muscle tone and definition
	* Enhanced body proportions

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The abdominoplasty procedure involves strategic incisions, precise fat
removal, muscle tightening, and skin redraping. Surgeons carefully
place incisions to minimize visible scarring, typically positioning
them below the bikini line.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Recovery from abdominoplasty requires patience and following
post-operative instructions. Most patients can return to non-strenuous
work within two weeks and resume full activities after six weeks.

IDEAL CANDIDATES

Ideal abdominoplasty candidates are individuals near their target
weight with excess abdominal skin and weakened muscle structure. The
procedure is not a weight-loss solution but a body contouring
technique.

POTENTIAL COMBINATION PROCEDURES

Abdominoplasty can be combined with other body contouring techniques
like liposuction for comprehensive aesthetic enhancement.

In today's fast-paced world, maintaining an ideal body contour can be
challenging. Many individuals struggle with abdominal changes
resulting from weight fluctuations, multiple pregnancies, or
significant weight loss. A tummy tuck offers a comprehensive solution
for reshaping and renewing the abdominal area.

WHY CHOOSE A TUMMY TUCK?

 	* Firmer, flatter abdominal profile
	* Narrower waistline
	* Enhanced body silhouette
	* Muscle repair and tightening

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

Tummy tuck surgery involves a carefully planned horizontal incision
strategically placed above the pubic area. The procedure includes
removing excess fat, surgically tightening damaged abdominal muscles,
and removing redundant skin to create a smoother, more toned
appearance.

CANDIDACY CONSIDERATIONS

Ideal candidates are individuals near their target weight with excess
abdominal skin or weakened muscles that do not respond to diet and
exercise. The procedure is not a weight-loss method but a body
contouring solution.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Most patients can expect a recovery period of several weeks. Typical
milestones include standing upright within 10-14 days and returning to
normal activities around 6 weeks post-surgery. Wearing a compression
garment and following post-operative instructions are crucial for
optimal results.

procedures like liposuction for comprehensive body contouring. A
personalized consultation will help determine the most effective
approach.
