What Is a Miami Abdominoplasty?
When patients are troubled by sagging, excess skin after significant weight loss or in the wake of pregnancy, then a tummy tuck may be the answer.
This procedure also is able to strengthen and repair weakened and loose abdominal muscles.
The result is a smooth, flat profile that you’ll be proud and excited to show off at the pool or the beach. No more hiding behind flowing dresses and tops. Instead, you’ll want to make certain that everyone can see your sleek midsection.
Who couldn’t use a boost of self-confidence like that?
Do the Results of a Tummy Tuck Last?
Patients frequently come in to consult with our surgeons about getting a Miami abdominoplasty. Their first question is almost always: “How long does a tummy tuck last?”
Unfortunately, it’s impossible to answer this question with any reliability because so many factors are involved. These factors may include the patient’s age, how well the patient takes care of their physical health in the years following the procedure, the patient’s skin type and future fluctuations in the patient’s weight.
Our surgeons routinely recommend to all plastic surgery patients that they eat a sensible, nutritious diet and follow an ongoing exercise regimen to prolong and maximize their surgical results.
Who Is a Good Tummy Tuck Candidate?
Most women and men are good candidates for this popular procedure. Candidates generally are in decent shape but can’t seem to lose stubborn fat deposits around their middle. Frequently, they are troubled by excess skin in the abdomen area, which no amount of exercise and no sensible diet will fix.
In particular, the procedure is appropriate for women who have been pregnant several times. While pregnancy and childbirth are miraculous experiences, they also are extremely demanding on the body. Stretched skin and abdominal muscles frequently are pushed past the point at which they can return to normal after the pregnancy. The result is excess skin and weakened muscles that can be troubling.
Some people seek a tummy tuck because they have noticed a distinct loss of skin elasticity or are experiencing slight obesity.
Whatever your reasons are for wanting to know more about a Miami abdominoplasty, you will always know that you are in good hands when you work with the medical professionals at Prestige Plastic Surgery.
What to Expect From Your Abdominoplasty Procedure
You and your doctor have decided that a tummy tuck is right for you. Now, the day has arrived when you will come to our convenient surgery center to have your procedure performed.
Tummy tucks usually are performed as outpatient procedures. The patient is put under general anesthesia for comfort and safety. Make sure that you have someone drive you to and from our surgery center, and allow two to five hours for the procedure. Please also plan to spend additional hours in recovery at our offices.
Set aside plenty of time for quiet rest in the days following your surgery. Swelling and pain are common during this time, and your surgeon will prescribe medications that will help to manage these symptoms. All patients who have had a tummy tuck are asked to wear a compression garment that cannot be removed until a time that is specified by the surgeon. The purpose of this garment is to compress the skin and help to minimize swelling.
Swelling may persist for a few weeks after the procedure, but there usually is no cause for alarm. The swelling is simply part of the healing process, and it will subside. When it does, you will see just how sleek and streamlined your midsection now is.

Let the medical professionals at Prestige Plastic Surgery help you to transform your body and your life. Most people who have excess skin and fat around their bellies are good candidates for this procedure or other surgical procedures. Additionally, this surgery also can tighten up loose and weakened muscles, resulting in a toned midsection like you may have never had before.
It may be possible to combine your abdominoplasty with other procedures, such as liposuction on the hips. When you combine cosmetic surgery procedures, then you only have to deal with one recovery period instead of two or three. You will also have the advantage of seeing major improvements in more of your appearance at one time.
