Abdominoplasty Tummy Tuck Schaumburg, IL | Paul C. Dillon, MD Inc

Understanding Tummy Tuck Procedures

A tummy tuck is an excellent surgical solution for patients struggling to achieve a trim midsection. Factors such as pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and aging can make losing abdominal fat challenging. The procedure addresses these concerns by repairing abdominal walls and removing excess fat and skin.

Key Benefits of Abdominoplasty

• Surgically removes unwanted abdominal fat and skin
• Creates a more tight and firm appearance
• Tightens abdominal muscle wall
• Improves overall body contour

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck Surgery

Suitable candidates for a tummy tuck procedure typically share the following characteristics:

• Excellent overall health
• Non-smokers
• Not taking blood-thinning medications
• Recently experienced significant weight loss
• Seeking to reshape midsection after pregnancy

Surgical Procedure Details

The tummy tuck is performed under general anesthesia. Strategically placed incisions near the pubic area ensure surgical scars remain discreet. Dr. Dillon utilizes advanced techniques including targeted liposuction and precise skin removal to reshape the abdominal region.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect a typical recovery period of two weeks. Important post-surgical guidelines include avoiding heavy lifting and sleeping on the back to minimize abdominal pressure. Full resumption of strenuous physical activities is recommended after six weeks of recovery.
