Learn More About the Tummy Tuck Procedure
A typical tummy tuck procedure takes 2-3 hours to perform. The procedure involves making incisions to remove most of the skin and fat between your belly button and pubic area. Connective tissue that lies over the abdominal muscles will then be tightened permanently. Then, the incision will be stitched together, leaving a scar that falls along the natural creases of your bikini line. Sometimes liposuction to the sides is done to improve your overall body contour.
What to Expect After a Tummy Tuck in Los Angeles
Surgical dressing must be worn after the procedure, and small tubes will be placed in the incision site to drain any excess fluid. When you go home, you will need to wear a supportive garment for several weeks until your abdomen heals. Once your skin heals, you can expect your results to last indefinitely as long as you maintain weight.
