- Paradise Valley tummy tuck Patient Testimonial
Our highly qualified plastic surgeon has more than 22 years of experience and has been named one of the "Top Docs" in Phoenix Magazine. In addition, Dr. Ward is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Body Contouring Surgery
Due to various reasons, including multiple pregnancies, major weight fluctuation, and aging, individuals are often left with a protruding abdomen that is resistant to diet and exercise. In order to correct this problem, Dr. Ward can perform tummy tuck surgery ("abdominoplasty") to remove excess skin and tighten the underlying abdominal muscles.
Typically, a long incision is made in the lower abdomen from hipbone to hipbone; based on each patient's preference and Dr. Ward's suggestion, the incision is tailored to the individual. The skin is then separated from the abdominal muscles up to the ribcage and the muscles are tightened. Our Scottsdale Tummy Tuck surgeon can help to reduce the excess amount of loose skin, displaced fat, and weakened muscles. This may, in turn, provide you with a flatter stomach. During most tummy tuck procedures, a new opening for the belly button is made. For those who have minimal sagging skin only below the navel, a mini tummy tuck may be more appropriate.
You may be interested in undergoing other body enhancing surgeries as well. Dr. Ward also specializes in breast augmentation ("augmentation mammaplasty") and liposuction ("lipoplasty"), which you can learn more about during an initial consultation.
Prospective Scottsdale, Phoenix, and Paradise Valley tummy tuck patients may view patient results provided by Dr. Ward in before and after plastic surgery photos. Patient testimonials and educational plastic surgery videos are also available.
