Michigan Tummy Tuck

Dr. Richard Hainer performs tummy tuck surgery at his Michigan plastic surgery practice.

The tummy tuck or Abdominoplasty surgery is designed to firm and smooth the abdomen, eliminating accumulations of excess fat and loose,sagging skin.

A tummy tuck falls into the category of "excisional" body contouring whereby excess skin and fat are actually removed and excised.

Unlike liposuction which only removes excess fat and relies on skin elasticity to reshape the skin, tummy tuck surgery surgically removes excess skin and fat while also tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. This can dramatically reduce the appearance of a protruding abdomen, giving you a flatter, firmer, tighter stomach and a thinner, shapelier waistline.

If you have loose abdominal skin,stretch-marked skin after pregnancy, weakened abdominal muscles and/or excess abdominal fat that won't respond to diet or exercise, a tummy-tuck may be right for you.
