Chicago Tummy Tuck – Abdominoplasty

Our abdomen is one of the many parts of the body fat likes to collect. Once fat has made it’s self at home around the midsection, it is often very difficult to get rid of through traditional diet and exercise. Additionally abdominal muscles that have become weak or separated may need help returning to a normal position. The surgeons of Northwestern Plastic Surgery use  abdominoplasty to improve the appearance of of your midsection.

Abdominoplasty, more commonly known as a tummy tuck, is used to correct a protruding abdomen resulting from weak abdominal muscles, weight gain or pregnancy. Using abdominoplasty, your surgeon is able to tighten abdominal muscles and excess fatty tissue and skin are removed  improving the body contour. Liposuction can be used in conjunction with abdominoplasty to produce optimal results.

It is important to note that andominoplasty is not a form of weight loss. Patients who benefit from abdominoplasty are in good health and relatively good shape. Contact our office to schedule your consultation and learn more about how you can benefit from tummy tuck surgery.
