Flat and Toned
Loose, sagging skin around your midsection or weakened abdominal muscles due to weight loss or pregnancy can be frustrating. Many individuals are discovering the benefits of abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, to regain their confidence and achieve a more toned appearance.
At Brower Plastic Surgery, we understand that each patient has unique aesthetic needs and goals. At our practice in Providence tummy tuck procedures are designed to address concerns specific to you, helping you achieve the best results. It's a transformative procedure that has helped countless individuals in Providence and the surrounding communities achieve a more confident and rejuvenated appearance.
Enhanced Body Contour
Abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure designed to create a flatter and more sculpted abdominal contour. It's an ideal solution for women who have been through pregnancy or individuals who have lost a substantial amount of weight, as it addresses excess skin, fat, and weakened abdominal muscles. Dr. Brower tailors each abdominoplasty procedure to the unique needs of the patient, ensuring that the outcome is both natural-looking on your body and aesthetically pleasing.
Revitalize Your Midsection
The benefits of abdominoplasty extend far beyond cosmetic enhancement.
Patients who undergo this procedure often experience improved self-esteem and body confidence as they achieve a more youthful and toned abdominal appearance. Additionally, addressing excess skin and fat can alleviate discomfort and skin irritation, making daily activities more comfortable. Tummy Tuck can provide a lasting solution for those who have struggled with stubborn belly fat or loose skin, offering not only aesthetic improvement but also enhanced physical comfort.
Reshape Your Body
At Brower Plastic Surgery, it is our mission to make you feel confident and comfortable in your own skin.
Our comprehensive consultation with Dr. Brower is the first step to help you achieve your desired results. We know that everyone's body is unique, and we take the time to understand your specific concerns and aesthetic goals. Whether you've experienced pregnancy-related changes or significant weight loss, we will create a customized surgical plan that meets your needs. During the consultation for a Tummy Tuck Providence patients are encouraged to ask questions and share any apprehensions they may have. Our goal is to make sure you feel informed and supported every step of the way.
Tighten Your Tummy
Tummy Tuck is performed in an operating room, where excess abdominal skin and fat are meticulously removed. Dr. Brower uses a carefully placed incision that can be discreetly hidden beneath underwear or a bathing suit. In many cases, particularly in individuals with abdominal muscle separation (rectus diastasis), the abdominal muscles are surgically tightened to achieve a flatter and more toned appearance. The belly button is also reshaped and repositioned to create a natural-looking result. Despite the comprehensive nature of the procedure, patients typically return home on the same day.
The Stomach You Want
Recovery following a Tummy Tuck typically involves taking one to two weeks off from work to allow the body to heal. While light activities such as walking are encouraged, strenuous exercises, particularly those involving lifting and running, should be avoided for approximately six weeks. Dr. Brower and his dedicated team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery process. Your well-being and comfort are a top priority throughout your abdominoplasty journey.
Slender Figure
After a Tummy Tuck Surgery, patients can expect to enjoy a smoother and more contoured abdomen. While initial results are noticeable shortly after the surgery, the full effects become apparent as any post-operative swelling and bruising subside. Patients often report increased self-confidence and satisfaction with their appearance as they achieve the toned abdomen they've longed for. The results of abdominoplasty can be long-lasting, especially with proper maintenance through a healthy lifestyle and skincare regimen.
Tummy Tuck is an ideal option if you've experienced pregnancy-related changes or significant weight loss, have a BMI under 35, and are not planning future pregnancies. Dr. Brower can evaluate your specific needs during a consultation.
Tummy Tuck results can be long-lasting with proper maintenance through a healthy lifestyle and skincare regimen, often lasting for many years.
You will not feel any pain during the procedure because you will be given general anesthesia. All surgery is followed by some discomfort as the anesthesia wears off, but most patients find that their discomfort is less than they expected. Dr. Brower will provide different types of pain medications to make your recovery as comfortable and smooth as possible. You can text or call Dr. Brower any time after surgery if you have any concerns.
Liposuction and tummy tuck address different problems. Liposuction removes stubborn pockets of fat, while a tummy tuck removes extra abdominal skin and tightens the core muscles. During your consultation, Dr. Brower will evaluate you to determine which procedure is best for you. Some patients benefit from a combination of both abdominoplasty and liposuction to achieve the flattest abdomen and ideal shape in the torso.
Some patients, usually men, have a small amount of excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles in only the lower part of the belly. These patients may benefit from a “mini tummy tuck.” Most patients require a traditional tummy tuck to get the best results.
Every surgery leaves some scars. Dr. Brower uses the most advanced incision closure techniques and scar management strategies to ensure your scar is as faint as possible. He also places the scar low so that it is easily concealed by underwear or a bathing suit.
Dr. Brower’s patient-focused approach delivers a uniquely compassionate treatment experience and impeccably natural results. Begin the journey to enhanced confidence and well-being with a private consultation at Brower Plastic Surgery.
