LowCut Tummy Tuck™

LOWCUT TUMMY TUCK™ DESCRIPTION

The midsection is among the most common problem areas for patients. Excess fat, loose skin, and bulging around the abdomen can prevent you from having full confidence in your body or physique. Unfortunately, many patients are hesitant to wear certain clothing or swimsuits because they are unhappy with the appearance of their midsection.

At Bassin Center For Plastic Surgery, we offer the innovative LowCut Tummy Tuck™ to help patients restore youthful firmness and shape to the abdomen. This low scar abdominoplasty technique is different from traditional tummy tucks of the past. Unlike other abdominoplasty procedures, the LowCut Tummy Tuck™ uses a low incision which is hidden beneath the bikini line (or panty line). By strategically placing the scar out of view, LowCut Tummy Tuck™ patients do not need to contend with visible, linear scars across the midsection. The LowCut Tummy Tuck™ can remove excess skin, tighten the abdominal wall, lift the pubis, and restore a flatter, more toned midsection in one procedure!

LOWCUT TUMMY TUCK™ PROCEDURE

During your LowCut Tummy Tuck™, your plastic surgeon will make a small incision underneath the bikini line. Any excess skin is removed and your abdominal muscles are tightened to enhance definition. A pubic lift is also performed, in which the area above the pubic bone is lifted and tightened, dramatically improving the appearance of the lower abdomen. Mild swelling and bruising should be expected following your LowCut Tummy Tuck™ procedure; these side effects should subside within a week. Most patients return to work and resume most daily activities after a few days. LowCut Tummy Tuck™ patients can expect long-lasting, natural-looking improvements to their midsection. The low scar abdominoplasty technique can accentuate definition, enhance the appearance of the belly button, and restore youthful contours while hiding any scarring under the panty line.
