Tummy Tuck Extended

Tummy Tuck Extended
A tummy tuck extended is a comprehensive body contouring procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat not only from the abdominal area but also from the flanks and lower back. This surgery is especially recommended for patients who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or aging-related skin laxity that affects a broader area than a traditional tummy tuck can address.

The procedure involves tightening the underlying abdominal muscles, which may have been stretched or weakened, and removing large amounts of loose skin and fat to restore a firm, smooth, and natural-looking midsection. By improving the abdominal contour and waistline, the surgery enhances posture, reduces discomfort caused by excess skin, and boosts patient confidence significantly.

Patients should expect a recovery period that includes swelling, bruising, and temporary limitations in physical activity for several weeks. Post-operative care is critical for optimal healing and results, and patients are typically advised to avoid strenuous activities for at least 4 to 6 weeks.

This procedure offers a transformative solution for those seeking a complete abdominal rejuvenation, going beyond what traditional tummy tucks provide, and delivers long-lasting improvements in body shape and comfort.
