What Happens During A DC Tummy Tuck Procedure?
During the tummy tuck procedure, Dr. Bruno or Dr. Brown will make the appropriate incisions depending on the technique chosen.
The upper abdominal skin is pulled down, and any excess skin is trimmed. The incisions are then closed accordingly. Liposuction is often performed before and during the procedure.
Your DC tummy tuck surgeon will work with you to determine which tummy tuck procedure best meets your needs. Some options include a full tummy tuck procedure, a mini tummy tuck procedure, or an extended tummy tuck procedure.
- A full tummy tuck procedure involves an incision across the hip line and around the belly button
- A mini tummy tuck procedure involves a smaller incision and is often complemented with liposuction.
- An extended tummy tuck is best suited for individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight and involves extending the incision around the sides and possibly the lower back.
Our surgeons will tailor your tummy tuck procedure to best suit your needs and goals to result in a beautiful, natural look.
Can I Combine A DC Tummy Tuck Procedure With Other Procedures?
Yes! Many female patients also choose to have a tummy tuck as part of their mommy makeover, which allows you to combine procedures like breast augmentation, breast reduction, sculpting, and more. Some also have a tummy tuck with another sculpting procedure, such as liposuction. During your consultation, we can go through all of your goals to see if multiple procedures would be a better choice for you.
