TUMMY TUCK ABDOMINOPLASTY ROCKVILLE, MD | MICHAEL P VINCENT MD FACS

UNDERSTANDING TUMMY TUCK SURGERY

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative surgical
procedure designed to flatten and reshape the abdomen by removing
excess skin and fat while tightening underlying muscles. This
procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing
abdominal changes due to pregnancy, significant weight loss, or aging.

WHO IS AN IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR TUMMY TUCK?

 	* Individuals with persistent abdominal fat and loose skin resistant
to diet and exercise
	* Patients with weakened or separated abdominal muscles
	* Those at a stable weight with realistic expectations
	* Non-smokers in good overall health
	* Individuals who have completed childbearing

TUMMY TUCK PROCEDURE OPTIONS

FULL ABDOMINOPLASTY

A comprehensive approach involving incisions across the lower abdomen
and around the navel. This technique allows for extensive skin
removal, muscle tightening, and comprehensive body contouring.

MINI ABDOMINOPLASTY

A less invasive option targeting the lower abdomen with a smaller
incision. Ideal for patients with minimal skin laxity below the navel
seeking subtle improvements.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The tummy tuck procedure involves carefully planned incisions,
strategic muscle repair, and precise skin repositioning. Dr. Vincent
utilizes advanced techniques to minimize scarring and optimize
aesthetic outcomes.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Recovery typically spans several weeks, with patients experiencing
gradual improvement in abdominal contour. Most individuals can return
to normal activities within 4-6 weeks, with final results becoming
apparent after several months.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

 	* Surgical risks associated with anesthesia
	* Potential for scarring
	* Temporary changes in skin sensation
	* Possibility of revision surgery

MAINTAINING YOUR TUMMY TUCK RESULTS

Long-lasting results depend on maintaining a stable weight, following
a healthy lifestyle, and avoiding significant weight fluctuations or
future pregnancies.

TUMMY TUCK (ABDOMINOPLASTY) IN ROCKVILLE, MD

The abdominal region is frequently a source of aesthetic concern for
many patients. Factors like weight fluctuations and pregnancy can
stretch skin and muscles, leading to excess skin, stretch marks, and
muscle separation. While exercise strengthens core muscles, it cannot
address loose skin and persistent abdominal concerns.

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical
procedure designed to remove excess fat and skin while tightening
underlying abdominal muscles. Dr. Faulkner specializes in providing
personalized abdominoplasty solutions to help patients regain

ABDOMINOPLASTY (TUMMY TUCK) IN ROCKVILLE, MD

UNDERSTANDING ABDOMINOPLASTY

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical
procedure designed to refine and correct abdominal contours. Frederick
H. Watkins, MD, offers comprehensive abdominoplasty services for
patients in Rockville, Maryland, and McLean, Virginia.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Abdominoplasty is a surgical intervention that addresses multiple
aesthetic concerns in the abdominal region. The procedure removes
excess skin and fat while repairing weakened or separated abdominal
muscles, resulting in a smoother, more toned appearance.

CANDIDATES FOR TUMMY TUCK

Ideal candidates for abdominoplasty typically experience abdominal
changes due to various factors:

 	* Aging-related body transformations
	* Previous abdominal surgeries
	* Hereditary body composition
	* Significant weight fluctuations
	* Post-pregnancy body changes

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

During a tummy tuck, Dr. Watkins performs a comprehensive approach
under general anesthesia. The procedure involves:

 	* Creating strategic incisions across the lower abdomen
	* Separating abdominal skin and fat from underlying muscles
	* Repairing muscle wall separation
	* Removing excess tissue
	* Repositioning the belly button
	* Carefully closing incisions

PROCEDURE VARIATIONS

Dr. Watkins offers different abdominoplasty techniques, including
traditional and mini-abdominoplasty. The mini-procedure focuses
specifically on the lower abdominal region with smaller incisions,
providing a tailored approach for patients with more localized
concerns.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

While abdominoplasty can dramatically improve abdominal contours,
patients should understand its limitations. The procedure cannot
address stretch marks or overall skin texture and is not a weight-loss
solution. Maintaining a stable weight is crucial for preserving
surgical results.

ADVANCED PAIN MANAGEMENT

Dr. Watkins utilizes advanced pain management techniques, including
the sustained-release medication Exparel, to enhance patient comfort
during the recovery process.
