Abdominoplasty (Tummy
Tuck) and Total Body Contouring: Minimizing scar for a more
natural result.
Today patients are recalcitrant to undergo a traditional
tummy tuck because the extensive scarring and long post operative
course.
Newer techniques have been introduced to minimize both problems.
To ease the side effects of anesthesia, now we can do the
operation under epidural anesthesia that will
get back to normal faster and it is overall safer then general
anesthesia.
Los Angeles tummy tuck specialist Dr. Clabria uses a technique wherein the incision is placed lower and in a
natural crease of the groin and tailored in such a fashion
that the patient can still wear a high cut bikini afterward.
Deep sutures are placed from the abdominal wall to the muscle
so the tension, which is the most important factor causing
widening of the scares, will be minimized. Also liposuction
is added judiciously so a better overall body contour can
be obtained.
A total body lift is also available which will correct the
buttocks areas and a medial thigh lift to correct loose skin
in the inner thighs area and can be offered in conjunction
with a tummy tuck; same principles and advanced techniques
apply for those complimentary plastic surgery procedures.
Through the use of the latest state-of-the-art advancements the results will be more pleasing and the surgery safer in
the effort to take body contouring to the highest level.
