What Does the Tummy Tuck Procedure Entail?
The tummy tuck procedure involves a long incision that can be well-concealed within the bikini line if appropriately planned. An abdominoplasty is a very gratifying procedure for most women and the scar is usually a small consolation. The tummy tuck procedure can be combined with liposuction of other areas or even a breast augmentation (i.e. “mommy makeover”).
What is the Recovery Period for an Abdominoplasty?
Recovery from an abdominoplasty is about 3-4 weeks. Many patients go back to work around 1 week depending on their occupation. Your daily life is restricted for about 3-4 weeks at which time lifting is not as concerning and light exercise is allowed.

What are the Risks Involved with a Tummy Tuck?
Risks of an abdominoplasty are low but standard risks such as infection and bleeding are the most common. Studies have shown that if you combine this surgery with liposuction or intrabdominal procedures, the risk can be slightly higher.
