Tummy Tuck ( Abdominoplasty)

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.
