Refine Your Figure after Massive Weight Loss
With Abdominoplasty
Losing substantial weight can be exciting. However, many potential tummy tuck patients are disappointed with their results because their skin has significantly stretched out. This can result in loose skin that prevents them from having the waistline they desire.
Fortunately, a tummy tuck can be performed to refine the area, allowing patients to achieve the toned abdomen they have worked hard for through weight loss. This treatment is also a great option for mothers who are unhappy with their post-baby body.
We Offer Additional Options For More Substantial Results

Am I the Right Candidate For Abdominoplasty?

Good General Health
Your health is an important consideration for surgery because certain conditions like autoimmune diseases and smoking can increase your risk of complications.A Stable Weight
You should be committed to a healthy diet and exercise to prevent significant weight gain. For these reasons, you should also wait until after you are finished having children to undergo abdominoplasty at our Greenville office.Commitment to Diet and Exercise
Typically, we recommend that patients first try diet and exercise to achieve their desired figure, and that they remain consistent with both after treatment. However, plastic surgery is an excellent option to achieve what lifestyle changes cannot.Unhappiness with Your Waistline
Whether due to aging, pregnancy, weight loss, or simply stubborn fat accumulation, a tummy tuck or liposuction is typically recommended to patients who are genuinely unhappy with the size and shape of their waistline.Realistic Expectations

View on GoogleFAQs About Tummy Tuck
Can a tummy tuck help me lose weight?
No — while tummy tucks do create a more contoured abdomen, they are not designed to help you reach your goal weight. In fact, to qualify for abdominoplasty, you will actually need to be within 10 to 15 pounds of your ideal weight.
How can I know if my abdominal muscles have separated?
Do your stomach muscles have a space in between them? Does your stomach stick out? You may have separated abdominal muscles. This often happens to women who have had children. Other potential signs may include pain throughout the lower back and pelvic region, as well as incontinence and trouble with physical activities.
Can men get a tummy tuck?
Yes, absolutely. Patients of all genders who want a slimmer stomach area can consider abdominoplasty. In 2022, around 3,463 men decided to get a tummy tuck, according to the ASPS. That number also rose by 39% from 2019 to 2022.
