Tummy Tuck Philadelphia

A tummy tuck removes surplus fat and tissue from the abdominal region. The abdominal muscles are often tightened as well. It is especially helpful for men who retain excess bulk in their mid-sections despite previous efforts at weight loss and for women who have undergone multiple pregnancies.

Your Individual Goals

Your tummy tuck procedure goals will be discussed realistically with Philadelphia Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Bucky. Together you will decide which procedures Dr. Bucky will perform to achieve your desired results. You will set a date for surgery and be given instructions about how to prepare.

Tummy Tuck Procedure Details

Dr. Bucky will perform one of two tummy tuck procedures: the full abdominoplasty or the partial abdominoplasty (mini-tummy tuck). If you only want to reduce the size of your lower belly, Dr. Bucky will make an incision along the lower waistline, removing excess fat and skin while tightening your abdominal muscles. If you would like to see more dramatic results, Dr. Bucky can perform a full abdominoplasty procedure. It is a more extensive surgery, but is a more thorough and effective technique to reduce your abdomen size. Dr. Bucky often performs liposuction in conjunction with your tummy tuck. Your abdominoplasty will be performed under general anesthesia administered by a Board Certified Anesthesiologist. Dr. Bucky works with a Board Certified operating team. Your tummy tuck procedure will have a rapid recovery rate with Dr. Bucky’s extensive post-operative care program. You will have access to a pre-operative vitamin regimen, personalized nursing, and a post-operative physical therapy and exercise protocol developed specifically for you, if desired.
