Achieve a Tighter, Flatter Midsection with Board-Certified Plastic Surgeons at Synergy Face + Body

What Is a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)?

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles. This procedure creates a smoother, firmer midsection and is especially beneficial for those who have experienced significant weight fluctuations or pregnancy-related changes.

Tummy Tuck Options We Offer

Synergy’s experienced team provides three types of tummy tucks for patients. Each tummy tuck procedure is aimed at erasing excess skin and tightening the abdominal muscles. With each procedure, small incisions are made to minimize scarring. Once the incisions are made, the unnecessary skin is removed and the targeted areas are eliminated to ensure desired results.

Standard (Full) Tummy Tuck

The Standard Tummy Tuck is the most commonly preferred Tummy Tuck and is a crowd favorite among many mothers. The Standard Tuck is aimed to tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess fat tissue.

Mini (“Scarless”) Tummy Tuck

A mini tummy tuck, sometimes called a “scarless tummy tuck,” targets mild lower abdominal skin laxity with a smaller incision below the belly button. This less invasive abdominoplasty focuses on tightening the lower stomach without repositioning the belly button.

Circumferential Tummy Tuck

The Circumferential Tummy Tuck is helpful for those who experienced extreme weight loss and are looking to remove excess sagging skin from their stomach and lower back region.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?

If you meet these criteria, a tummy tuck may be the right solution to achieve the toned, flatter abdomen you’ve been working toward.

BMI under 30
Maintaining a body mass index (BMI) below 30 helps lower the risk of complications and supports better healing and long-term results.

At or near your goal weight for 6+ months
A tummy tuck isn’t a weight loss procedure, so it’s best suited for individuals who have already achieved a stable, healthy weight and don’t plan to lose much more.

Nonsmoker
Smoking interferes with healing and increases surgical risks; quitting smoking well before surgery is essential for a safe recovery and optimal outcome.

No plans for future pregnancies
Pregnancy after a tummy tuck can stretch the abdominal muscles and skin again, undoing the results—so it’s recommended for those who are done having children.

Realistic expectations about results and scarring
A tummy tuck can dramatically improve abdominal contour, but it’s important to understand it will leave a scar (typically hidden low along the bikini line) and requires recovery time.
