Why Consider an Abdominoplasty?
An abdominoplasty, commonly called a tummy tuck, is more than just a cosmetic procedure; it addresses many physical changes our bodies undergo over time due to natural processes, life events, or individual choices. Some of the most prevalent reasons why individuals opt for a tummy tuck can include the following.
Every individual’s journey to considering an abdominoplasty is unique, but the goal remains consistent: to feel confident, comfortable, and proud of one’s body. Whether you’re dealing with the remnants of significant life changes or simply the passage of time, a tummy tuck can be a transformative step toward reclaiming your body.
Loose or Sagging Skin
Our skin’s elasticity can diminish with age, significant weight fluctuations, or prolonged exposure to the sun, causing saggy and drooping skin. A tummy tuck can remove this excess skin, offering a firmer, more youthful appearance.
Muscle Laxity
Pregnancy, aging, or significant weight changes can lead to separated or weakened abdominal muscles; a condition known as diastasis recti. This separation can lead to a protruding belly and a loss of core strength, but abdominoplasty restores a firmer abdominal wall and a more toned appearance.
Abnormal Fat Pockets
Despite a balanced diet and regular exercise, some individuals struggle with stubborn pockets of fat in the abdominal region that are resistant to conventional weight loss methods. A tummy tuck, often combined with liposuction, can target and remove these fat pockets, creating a smoother contour.
Significant Weight Loss
After shedding many pounds, many are left with excessive skin that doesn’t “snap back.” Abdominoplasty can be the final step in their weight loss journey, removing the redundant skin and refining the abdomen’s shape.
Multiple Pregnancies
Multiple pregnancies can stretch the skin and muscles extensively, sometimes to a point where natural recovery is challenging. Mothers often seek tummy tucks to regain their pre-pregnancy abdominal tone and shape.
Personalized care
At Neaman Plastic Surgery, our brand and tone revolve around personalized care, empathy, and a commitment to helping individuals achieve their unique aesthetic goals. We believe that everyone deserves to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin, and our procedures are designed to do just that—empower individuals to embrace their beauty and feel their best.
View Our GalleryTummy Tuck vs. Liposuction
Both abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and liposuction are popular cosmetic procedures designed to improve the abdomen’s appearance. However, they address different concerns and are best suited for distinct types of patients:
Good Candidates for a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
- Presence of Excess or Sagging Skin: Those with significant amounts of loose or hanging skin, especially after massive weight loss or multiple pregnancies, would benefit from a tummy tuck to excise the redundant skin.
- Muscle Laxity: A tummy tuck is necessary if the abdominal muscles have been stretched or separated (diastasis recti), often from pregnancy or significant weight changes. It removes excess skin, tightens, and repairs the separated muscles, restoring a firmer abdominal wall.
- Combination of Excess Skin and Fat: If someone has considerable excess skin and stubborn fat pockets, a tummy tuck can be combined with liposuction for a comprehensive abdominal makeover.
Good Candidates for Liposuction
- Localized Fat Deposits: Liposuction is ideal for individuals with stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. It’s perfect for contouring specific areas where fat tends to accumulate, such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or arms.
- Good Skin Elasticity: Those with relatively firm and elastic skin are excellent candidates for liposuction. Since the procedure doesn’t address skin laxity, it’s crucial that the skin can adjust to the body’s new contours post-procedure.
- Stable Weight: Ideal liposuction candidates are at or near their desired weight and want to refine their silhouette rather than achieve significant weight loss.
- Absence of Muscle Separation: Liposuction alone may suffice if the primary concern is excess fat without muscle separation or extensive loose skin.
A tummy tuck is best suited for individuals dealing with excess skin, muscle laxity, or a combination of skin, fat, and muscle concerns. In contrast, liposuction is primarily for those with localized fat deposits and good skin elasticity. In some cases, combining both procedures might offer the best results; consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can assess your needs and recommend the most suitable procedure is essential.

Start Your JourneyGoals of a Tummy Tuck
Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is more than just a procedure—it’s a transformative journey tailored to individuals’ aspirations seeking a more defined and contoured midsection. There are numerous goals with a tummy tuck, including:
Removal of Loose Skin
One of the most evident signs of aging, significant weight loss, or post-pregnancy changes is the development of excess or sagging skin around the abdominal area. A tummy tuck aims to excise this redundant skin, providing a smoother and tighter appearance to the abdomen. Doing so rejuvenates the midsection and offers a more youthful and firmer look.
Repair of Muscle Separation
Life events can sometimes cause the abdominal muscles to stretch or separate, leading to a condition known as diastasis recti. This muscle separation can manifest as a protruding belly, a weakened core, and an altered body posture. By restoring the integrity of the abdominal wall, abdominoplasty enhances the overall silhouette and potentially improves core strength and functionality.
Creation of an Hourglass Figure
Beyond addressing skin and muscles, a tummy tuck artistically sculpts the abdomen to accentuate the body’s natural curves. This contoured shape emphasizes a narrower waist and balanced proportions, aligning with many individuals’ aesthetic aspirations.
Pain Control Options for Tummy Tuck
Both abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and liposuction are popular cosmetic procedures designed to improve the abdomen’s appearance. However, they address different concerns and are best suited for distinct types of patients:
Exparel vs TABS Blocks
Exparel
What is it? Exparel is a long-acting, non-opioid local anesthetic administered during a surgical procedure.
How does it work? Exparel numbs the surgical area by slowly releasing bupivacaine, an anesthetic, over a period of up to 72 hours. This sustained release helps manage pain during the critical first few days after surgery.
Benefits:
Reduces the need for opioid pain medications and subsequent side effects.
Provides consistent pain relief and a more comfortable recovery phase.
A quicker return to daily activities due to effective pain management.
TAB Blocks (Transversus Abdominis Plane Blocks)
What is it? TAP block is a regional anesthesia technique that targets the nerves responsible for transmitting pain from the front of the abdomen.
How does it work? During a TAP block, local anesthetics are injected into the transversus abdominis plane, a layer in the abdominal wall. This blocks the pain signals from the midsection, providing relief.
Benefits:
Offers immediate pain relief post-surgery.
Like Exparel, TAP blocks can reduce the reliance on opioid medications.
Allows patients to move and participate in early post-operative activities like walking.
