Tummy Tuck Long Island – Get A Flatter Stomach

Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is the surgical removal of excess skin and fat deposits and the repositioning of abdominal muscles to create a tighter, flatter stomach. At our Long Island cosmetic surgery facility we correct the vertical separation of abdominal muscles – or diastases. It is very common for active Long Island women to look into getting a tummy tuck after being pregnant, or after experiencing multiple pregnancies.

Reasons to Consider Abdominoplasty:

• Excessive accumulation of skin following weight loss.
• Loss of skin elasticity and diastases (loose abdomen muscles) resulting from pregnancy.
• The removal of unsightly skin and fat deposits and realignment of the abdominal muscles to create a flat, trim look.

Tummy Tuck Procedure

The average tummy tuck performed at our Long Island plastic surgery facility and takes less than two hours depending on the patient’s physiology. An incision is made just below the bikini line; excess skin is separated from the muscle tissue and removed. The abdomen muscle tissue is then tightened to complete the tummy tuck procedure, and create a firm, contoured stomach and better-defined waistline.
