TUMMY TUCK SUMMERVILLE, SC | DR. CRAIG A. BLUM, MD

UNDERSTANDING TUMMY TUCK PROCEDURES

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a comprehensive body contouring
procedure targeting excess abdominal fat and skin. This surgical
technique effectively reshapes the midsection, creating a more toned
and refined profile for patients in the Summerville and Charleston
areas.

WHAT IS A TUMMY TUCK?

Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin
and fat from the abdominal region. Unlike other body contouring
methods, a tummy tuck provides comprehensive targeting of both upper
and lower abdomen areas, resulting in dramatic body transformation.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR ABDOMINOPLASTY

Tummy tuck procedures are most suitable for individuals who:

 	* Maintain a stable, healthy weight
	* Have excess, disproportionate skin and fat in the midsection
	* Have undergone significant weight loss
	* Seek body contouring after pregnancy

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

During a tummy tuck, Dr. Blum carefully makes strategic incisions
around the abdomen, typically near the pubic bone and around the belly
button. The procedure involves removing excess tissue, tightening
underlying muscles, and repositioning skin for a smoother, more
contoured appearance.

BENEFITS OF TUMMY TUCK SURGERY

 	* Removes excess, sagging skin
	* Reduces stubborn fat deposits
	* Tightens abdominal muscles
	* Potential improvement in body proportions
	* Enhanced self-confidence

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Recovery from a tummy tuck varies by individual but typically involves
several weeks of healing. Patients can expect initial swelling and
discomfort, with gradual improvement in body contour over subsequent
months.
