At Lebowitz Plastic Surgery in Huntington, Long Island New York, your Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) will be tailored to meet your individual needs. Some individuals living on Long Island and in the near Manhattan and New Jersey communities may have lost a great deal of weight, requiring a full tummy tuck to obtain a flat,firm, and toned abdomen. Additionally, full tummy tucks may be recommended for moms to restore their fit and toned abdomen’s that have been lost and stretched due to pregnancy. Others living in this area may require a slightly different focus, contouring smaller areas of excess skin and fat. Following a thorough examination, while listening to your specific preferences and concerns, Dr. Lebowitz in Huntington, Long Island will formulate the best course of treatment to meet your needs.

In a full tummy tuck, an incision is made along the lower abdomen just above the pubic area to best minimize post-operative scars. An additional incision is placed around your navel to recontour the belly button. By stitching together and tightening the abdominal muscles under the skin, Dr. Lebowitz is able to contour a tighter and toned hour-glass shaped abdominal wall. Then, the excess abdominal skin and fat is removed, revealing a flatter and smoother abdominal profile.

In a partial tummy tuck, a smaller incision is created to target areas below the belly button. In this procedure, the navel is not contoured and is left in place. Instead, a smaller incision is solely made along the lower abdomen above the pubic area to best minimize post-surgical scarring. Ideal candidates for this procedure are women and men who would like to remove smaller rolls of skin and fat within their abdominal area. Furthermore, a partial tummy tuck is appropriate for those women who have a “shelf” just above their abdominal caesarean scar.

The tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) is often combined with other cosmetic procedures. Many women living in Long Island and the surrounding Manhattan and New Jersey communities desire to restore their pre-pregnancy figures by combining their tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) with a breast lift and/or augmentation to complete their look.
