Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery
Struggling with saggy skin or excess abdominal fat can be challenging. Diet and exercise often cannot address these concerns, but a tummy tuck can help patients achieve a toned, tight, and stronger core. Emmett Plastic Surgery provides comprehensive abdominoplasty services in Denver's Lone Tree area.
Benefits of Abdominoplasty
A tummy tuck, medically known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to tighten abdominal wall muscles and remove excess skin and fat. This transformative surgery restores both aesthetic form and functional strength to the core.
Key Reasons for Considering a Tummy Tuck
- Repair abdominal muscles damaged by pregnancy or significant weight changes
- Eliminate persistent sagging skin after childbirth or weight loss
- Remove unwanted abdominal fat deposits
- Alleviate back pain caused by weakened core muscles
Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck Surgery
Dr. Jennifer Emmett carefully evaluates each patient's medical history to determine surgical eligibility. Ideal candidates typically:
- Desire improved abdominal contour and function
- Maintain a stable, healthy body weight
- Are in good overall health
- Hold realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
Surgical Procedure Details
Emmett Plastic Surgery ensures patient comfort during tummy tuck procedures. Dr. Emmett utilizes epidural anesthesia and IV sedation, and employs precise surgical techniques to remove loose skin and potentially use liposuction for fat reduction.
Recovery and Aftercare
Most patients can resume normal activities within one week following surgery. A compression garment is recommended during initial recovery to minimize swelling and support healing. Pain management options include prescription and over-the-counter medications.
Additional Procedural Considerations
Dr. Emmett recommends patients consider timing of surgery, potential combination procedures, and long-term maintenance to optimize tummy tuck results.
