Beautiful, Long-lasting Results

When you choose Dr. Greenberg to perform you tummy tuck, you can expect many significant benefits. Dr. Greenberg is a leader in his field who has helped many tummy tuck patients achieve:

• Long-lasting Results: With a healthy diet and regular exercise, you can maintain the smooth, sleek results of abdominoplasty for many years.

• Enhanced Self-confidence: Your abdominoplasty is designed to help you feel more comfortable in your own skin. For patients who have lost a substantial amount of weight, excess skin can be a daily burden. Tummy tuck surgery can complete your body transformation, helping you fully experience the benefits of your achievement.

• Better-fitting Clothing: Excess skin can be a burden when it comes to the fit of your clothes. Tummy tuck surgery smoothes your abdomen so that pants, shirts, dresses, and other clothing items fit better.

• Tightened Abdominal Muscles: In addition to tightening your abdominal skin, Dr. Greenberg also tightens your underlying abdominal muscles during surgery. Your abdomen will feel tighter and firmer after surgery.

We believe that every patient deserves to feel beautiful in his or her skin. To help you afford your tummy tuck surgery and enjoy its many benefits, we offer CareCredit℠ patient financing. Dr. Greenberg will provide you with an up-front cost estimate during your initial consultation so that you can determine if this investment is right for your needs and your lifestyle.

How Tummy Tuck Surgery is Performed

If you are interested in a tummy tuck, you can undergo a consultation with Dr. Greenberg to decide if the procedure is the best option for you. If you have excess, drooping skin around your midsection that remains after substantial weight loss, this surgery can create the tightened, contoured appearance you desire. Once Dr. Greenberg has determined that you are a candidate for tummy tuck, we can schedule your surgery.

During tummy tuck surgery, Dr. Greenberg will create an incision just above your pelvic area that extends horizontally across your abdomen. The length of your incision depends upon the amount of lifting you require. Some incisions are a few inches in length, while others may extend from one hip to another. Through this incision, Dr. Greenberg will carefully lift and tighten the tissues of your abdomen to create the contours you desire. He may also incorporate liposuction. He will carefully remove any excess tissue and suture your incision closed.
