Tummy Tuck in Los Angeles

Call 310.550.6300 to schedule a consultation

After pregnancy, weight loss or just plain aging, many people find themselves with excess skin and fat around the belly and decreased strength and tone of the muscles beneath. Abdominoplasty or “tummy tuck” addresses these problems for both women and men. The result is improved body contour and a smoother shape to the abdomen.

During the surgery an incision is made within the “bikini” or “boxer” line under the abdomen; this helps to hide the scar under clothes following the procedure. Excess skin and fat are removed, the muscle beneath is tightened, the skin is redraped to provide a pleasing body shape, and often the belly button is moved to a new position within the newly contoured abdomen. In some cases, a “mini abdominoplasty” can be performed, which affords many of the same results with shorter scars. In other cases, abdominoplasty is combined with liposuction for further fat removal and body contouring. Your surgeon at Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery will work with you to develop an operative plan that addresses your specific needs.
