Tummy Tuck Long Island

Abdominoplasty also known as a tummy tuck is performed to enhance the contour of your abdomen. Age, pregnancy, and weight loss can cause the abdominal wall to be loose, overhanging, and uncomfortable. Dr. John Layliev removes excess skin and fatty tissue from your abdomen and repositions your belly button. The abdominal rectus muscles are typically tightened to restore a more slender waistline. The scar is designed to be hidden in your undergarment.

The Mini Tummy Tuck

In select patients with excess tissue only under the belly button, a mini tummy tuck can be done. This involves the removal of excess skin and fatty tissue in your lower abdomen without the need to tighten your abdominal muscles and without the need to reposition your belly button. The recovery time for this operation is much less than with a standard tummy tuck procedure.

Enhancing the Results of Your Tummy Tuck

Dr. Layliev routinely uses liposuction to contour the hips during abdominoplasty to allow for a more hourglass figure result. Procedures commonly done in combination with abdominoplasty are breast augmentation and breast lifts, aiming to restore your youthful self during one operation.

Combining Tummy Tuck With Other Procedures

Dr. Layliev recognizes the evolving landscape of cosmetic enhancements and offers insight into the potential advantages of combining a tummy tuck with other procedures. This strategic approach can address multiple aesthetic concerns simultaneously, enhancing overall satisfaction.

Considerations for combining procedures, such as liposuction or breast augmentation, should be thoroughly discussed during consultations. Dr. Layliev’s expertise allows for a personalized approach to cater to each patient’s unique aesthetic goals.

Is a Tummy Tuck Right for Me?

If you have loose abdominal skin, stretched-out abdominal muscles, and stubborn fat around your stomach, you are a good candidate for a tummy tuck. If the only problem is stubborn fat, liposuction alone may be enough to provide you with the results you desire. Dr. Layliev will determine whether you are an appropriate candidate for a standard tummy tuck or a mini tummy tuck and will help you understand the benefits of both surgeries.

Tummy Tuck Preparation Tips

In anticipation of your tummy tuck with Dr. Layliev, meticulous preparation is paramount for optimal results. Your consultation with Dr. Layliev can help you to understand abdominoplasty and address any concerns, providing you with a comprehensive checklist that include preoperative medical assessments, lifestyle adjustments, and a clear understanding of postoperative expectations.

Follow pre-abdominoplasty guidelines, such as refraining from smoking and certain medications. Preparing your home for a comfortable recovery is essential, ensuring a supportive environment post-tummy tuck surgery. Trusting the expertise of Dr. Layliev and adhering to these preparatory measures significantly contribute to a successful abdominoplasty experience.

Recovering from a Tummy Tuck

There will be some swelling and bruising around the stomach following your tummy tuck procedure. Any pain you may experience can be managed with medication. Dr. Layliev will provide you with comprehensive post-surgical instructions to help make the recovery process as easy as possible.

Lifestyle After a Tummy Tuck

Maintaining the results of your abdominoplasty involves a commitment to a healthy lifestyle. Eating a well-balanced diet, doing regular exercise, and engaging in mindful habits contribute to the longevity of the surgical outcomes. Dr. Layliev emphasizes the importance of incorporating sustainable lifestyle changes to support the sculpted contours achieved through the tummy tuck surgery.

The Cost of a Tummy Tuck

The cost of your tummy tuck will vary based on the type of tummy tuck performed, the work required to provide you with your desired results, and other factors. During your consultation, Dr. Layliev can go over the expected cost of your abdominoplasty and let you know about the payment options we offer.
