The surgical Tummy Tuck Procedure is required under general anesthesia for your comfort during the surgical procedures.

Full tummy tuck's required a horizontally  - oriented incision in the area between the pubic hairline and belly button. The shape and length of the incision will be determined by the amount of excess skin.

Once the abdominal skin is lifted, the underlying weakened abdominal muscles are repaired. The excess skin is trimmed and the remaining skin is sutured together. A new opening for the belly button is created.

The belly button is popped through to the surface and sutured into position. Incisions are closing by sutures, skin adhesives, tapes close the skin.

The incision will leave a scar along the abdomen (horizontal incision line). The scar will fade a bit over time (remain visible for years to come).

The surgeon will place the incision, ensuring the scar is well-concealed under clothing, underwear and swimsuit bottoms.

Your tummy tuck will result in a flatter, firmer abdominal contour that is more proportionate with your body type and weight.

After Tummy Tuck surgery, there is some soreness and discomfort which is easily controlled by medication. 

Dressings or bandages may be applied to incisions, and may be wrapped in an elastic bandage or a compression garment to minimize swelling and support your abdomen as it heals following surgery.

Swelling and skin discoloration around the incisions generally will subside in a few weeks.  Sutures will be removed within ten day of surgery.

Scars remain highly visible for a year following surgery, then fade to some degree.  Since incisions were made around and below the belly, scars should not be notice able even in low-cut.
