Tummy Tuck.

Achieve a Flatter, More Defined Midsection with a Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck is a highly effective way to restore a slimmer waistline and a smoother, firmer abdomen. The procedure starts by repairing stretched or weakened abdominal muscles, which are commonly affected by multiple pregnancies or significant weight fluctuations. After tightening the muscles, excess skin is removed, and the navel is artistically reshaped and repositioned to achieve a natural, balanced look.

To enhance the final result, liposuction is often performed on the waist and flanks, sculpting a more defined silhouette. At Synergy Plastic Surgery, our patients often report a significant boost in confidence and can’t wait to reveal their new contours once fully healed from this transformative procedure.

Tummy Tuck Recovery: What to Expect

Following a tummy tuck, patients are typically fitted with dressings and a compression garment or abdominal binder. This gentle pressure helps support the healing muscles and skin, reduces swelling, and encourages a smoother recovery process.

Surgical drains are commonly placed during the procedure to remove excess fluid from the area, helping to minimize swelling and prevent complications. These are usually kept in place for about two weeks, though the exact timing can vary depending on individual healing.

Most patients experience a noticeable reduction in swelling and bruising within the first two weeks, and many with desk-based jobs are able to return to work around this time. By six weeks, most are feeling significantly more comfortable and ready to resume physical activities and return to the gym.
