Abdominoplasty in New Jersey - Tummy Tuck Information
Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck surgery) can dramatically improve your figure and self-confidence, and can help you look and feel years younger. Some patients find it difficult to lose their excess tummy or protruding abdomen, even with regular exercise and smart dietary choices. This especially occurs after pregnancy, where the inner abdominal muscles as well as the outer abdominal skin can become permanently stretched out. Surgical assistance may be required for these patients to achieve a younger, slimmer physique or to simply recover the shape which has been lost. During an abdominoplasty consultation at the Premier Plastic Surgery Center of New Jersey, Dr. Glatt can determine if the tummy tuck procedure is right for you. Dr. Glatt is a board certified plastic surgeon and has many years' experience performing abdominoplasty with remarkable results.
Abdominal muscles are weakened by pregnancy and age; in addition, patients who lose significant amounts of weight may not be happy with their newly visible yet still overstretched stomach muscles. Excess, saggy skin - also a consequence of pregnancy, weight loss, and age - can combine with lax abdominal muscles to produce aesthetically unfavorable midsections. Abdominoplasty, offered through the Premier Plastic Surgery Center of New Jersey, may be the solution for patients who desire a flat, trim stomach. In the tummy tuck procedure, Dr. Glatt removes excess skin and reshapes the stomach so that it is taut and toned.
The Tummy Tuck Procedure
If you are considering a tummy tuck, you are in good company. Tummy tuck operations were the fifth most commonly performed cosmetic surgery procedure in 2005, according to data presented by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Although a tummy tuck requires an incision along the lower abdomen, the scar is typically kept extremely low, just above the pubic hairline and within the bikini line. Besides the removal of excess skin and fat, the stretched out, deeper, abdominal wall itself is tightened up – similar to a tightened vest placed under a jacket. This maneuver literally redefines the shape of the stomach. At this point, the abdominal skin is perfectly tailored to the newly refined inner shape, and the excess, loose skin is removed. Dr. Glatt will typically finish off the procedure by performing liposuction of the flanks (or sides) to help create a more perfectly pleasing overall contour. Patients can generally return to work two weeks after their surgery. Abdominoplasty patients come to the Premier Plastic Surgery Center of New Jersey from all parts of the Tri-State Region and the northeast. To schedule a tummy tuck consultation, contact Dr. Glatt and his staff today.

Abdominoplasty with Liposuction
While a tummy tuck procedure is the best surgical solution for tightening stomach muscles and eliminating loose, unwanted skin; this procedure alone cannot remove the fat deposits that sometimes plague the sides of the abdominal region. Therefore, liposuction is almost always included as part of an abdominoplasty performed by Dr. Glatt, so that the best result possible can be attained.
