A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, tightens abdominal muscles, and enhances body contours.

Tummy tuck overview

What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a form of plastic surgery that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen. The surgeon also repositions the remaining skin and tissues around the abdominal muscles to create a flatter, more toned stomach.

Many women opt for a tummy tuck procedure as part of a mommy makeover after pregnancy. In this case, the procedure is usually paired with a breast lift or breast augmentation. However, the procedure is also available for anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their stomach.

Tummy tuck candidacy

Am I a Good Candidate For A Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck is best for patients who have excess skin and fat around the abdomen but are otherwise able to maintain a stable weight. Many patients have undergone one or more pregnancies or experienced significant weight fluctuations.

Tummy tuck candidates should be healthy adults who do not smoke. Patients should not plan to get pregnant in the future or have an underlying condition that could interfere with the procedure. Additionally, you should have a realistic outlook for the procedure. During your initial tummy tuck consultation, we will conduct a health screening to see if the surgery is the right fit for you.

Benefits

of Tummy Tuck

For patients who qualify for the procedure, an abdominoplasty offers many benefits. Here are some of the reasons why our patients opt for this surgical procedure.

Restore Pre-Pregnancy Stomach
Pregnancy significantly changes the body. Many women experience weight gain and loose skin. Weakened abdominal muscles can also result in urinary incontinence. A tummy tuck can correct these post-pregnancy issues.

Reduce Back Pain
Weakened abdominal muscles or large amounts of excess skin can put an additional strain on your back. A tummy tuck can help correct these issues and minimize strain on your body.

Remove Excess Skin
If you’ve lost a significant amount of weight, the excess skin can feel heavy and even result in skin infections. Abdominoplasty removes the excess skin so you can feel more comfortable.

Toned Appearance
A tummy tuck gives your stomach a flatter, more toned appearance. Many people find that this boosts their confidence and helps them feel more comfortable in their favorite clothes.

Expectations on the

Day of Your Tummy Tuck

Your tummy tuck will be done under general anesthesia, which means you will be completely asleep for the procedure. This means you will need to avoid eating or drinking in the hours leading up to surgery. Our team will give you detailed instructions at your initial consultation.

Once you are fully asleep, Dr. Troell will make the appropriate incisions and carefully remove excess skin and fat. We will also reposition the skin and muscles for a toned yet natural look. We may also use liposuction to remove fat from your stomach.

A tummy tuck takes about two hours to complete. You will be able to go home on the day of your surgery. However, you will need someone to take you home, as you will still be drowsy and disoriented from the anesthesia. We may prescribe an antibiotic to prevent infection and painkillers to help keep you comfortable.

Recovery From a Tummy Tuck -

What to Expect After

The total recovery time for a tummy tuck is about six to eight weeks. Most people can return to work after two to four weeks. You will need to avoid exercise and other strenuous activities until you’ve been cleared by Dr. Troell.

During the first few days of your tummy tuck recovery, you will need to stay home and rest. You may need assistance with basic household tasks. Note that you will not be able to bend over or stand for long periods of time.

You will experience pain, swelling, and bruising around the incision, which will be covered with a light dressing. You may also feel numbness or a pulling sensation in your abdomen. These symptoms will slowly improve over the month after your surgery.

You will need to wear a compression garment for several hours each day as you recover. Additionally, you should sleep on your back with your head and torso elevated. This minimizes the amount of pressure on your stomach and helps keep swelling to a minimum.

Average cost

Tummy Tuck in Las Vegas

The average cost for a tummy tuck in Las Vegas, NV varies from patient to patient. At your consultation, we will provide a detailed cost estimate.

There are many factors that will influence the overall cost of your surgery. For example, if you pair your surgery with liposuction or other body contouring procedures, you’ll incur additional fees. The complexity of the procedure also affects the price, so a full or extended tummy tuck will cost more than a mini tummy tuck. The length of the procedure will also affect its overall cost, as longer procedures require more anesthesia and more care.

Most insurance providers do not cover tummy tuck surgery for aesthetic purposes. This means you will need to pay out-of-pocket or find financing options for your surgery.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a tummy tuck last?

Most tummy tucks are permanent. However, gaining a significant amount of weight could cause the stomach to stretch out again.

Can I get pregnant after a tummy tuck?

We require that patients wait until after they are done having children to have a tummy tuck, although the procedure won't affect your fertility. A pregnancy could stretch out the skin again, undoing the results of your surgery.

When will I be able to exercise after a tummy tuck?

Patients will need to wait at least seven to 10 weeks before exercising to protect their incisions. Be sure to get clearance from your doctor before working out.

How painful is a tummy tuck recovery?

You will experience moderate pain during the first few days after your surgery, which will later subside. However, your stomach may continue to feel numb for up to a month.
