If you are tired of endless sit-ups and frustrating diet regimes without gaining significant results, then contact Arizona tummy tuck specialist John Ward, M.D. This board certified Phoenix plastic surgery specialist can dramatically improve your figure and help you regain the self confidence you deserve.
Am I a good candidate for this procedure?
The best candidates for a tummy tuck (technically known as abdominoplasty):
- Do not plan on having any more children
- Have loose abdominal skin that will not respond to diet or exercise
- Are generally in good health
- Are within 25 pounds of their ideal weight
- Understand that abdominoplasty is not a substitute for natural weight loss
Although this procedure is not optimal or recommended for weight loss, oftentimes liposuction will be utilized if there are also stubborn pockets of fat clinging along with loose skin.
The incision that Scottsdale plastic surgeon Dr. Ward will make is situated low enough on your abdomen that the minimal resulting scarring will be safely hidden beneath your underwear line. The procedure typically takes between two and three hours and is preformed under a general anesthesia. Your post-surgery recovery will take around two to three weeks.
If you are interested in scheduling a consultation with Dr. Ward, or if you have any questions about an Arizona tummy tuck, please contact our office at (602) 553-0888 or feel free to fill out our online form.
