ARNOLD S. BREITBART, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Obtaining a flatter, firmer midsection is a goal for men and women of all ages. Tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is performed at our Long Island and Manhattan offices to help patients achieve a more attractive midsection by removing excess skin and fat from the stomach area and tightening abdominal muscles. For a comprehensive revision of a patient’s figure, Dr. Arnold Breitbart can combine abdominoplasty with other body contouring surgeries.
Healthy men and women who have tried dieting and exercise and are still unhappy with how their abdominal region looks are good candidates for a tummy tuck. Dr. Arnold Breitbart offers abdominoplasty surgery at his Long Island and Manhattan offices to help people restore their figure after pregnancy, dramatic weight loss, or other factors have caused excess skin and flab to appear in the midsection.
Often, the skin in the abdominal area becomes stretched and saggy after multiple pregnancies or as a result of losing a significant amount of weight. Many people feel self-conscious and frustrated when attempts to tone their abdomen are unsuccessful. Abdominoplasty, either alone or in combination with other body contouring procedures, can help patients achieve a more toned physique when diet and exercise are not enough.
To begin tummy tuck surgery, a very low incision is made and excess skin and fat are removed. The skin and muscle are tightened by Dr. Arnold Breitbart, who is careful to make sure that any scarring will be hidden by a bathing suit or underwear for a natural-looking, toned stomach in almost any situation. Depending on the extent of surgery, abdominoplasty may be performed as an outpatient procedure or with an overnight hospital stay. Most patients take approximately two weeks to recover before returning to work.
Tummy tuck patients enjoy a firmer, better-toned abdominal region and a more sculpted figure overall after the surgery. As long as patients continue with a reasonable diet and exercise plan, abdominoplasty results will last for years. For more effective results, a tummy tuck can be combined with other procedures at our New York practice, such as liposuction or breast augmentation, in order to achieve an improved overall body contour.
If you are unhappy with the contour of your midsection and dieting and exercise have failed to get rid of unwanted skin and flab around your stomach, experienced plastic surgeon Arnold Breitbart, M.D., can help.
