Abdominoplasty in Troy

Abdominoplasty in Troy

Patients who have achieved dramatic weight loss may struggle with the continued appearance of loose skin. Abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure designed to tighten the stomach and midsection. After weight loss, abdominoplasty can revitalize the abdominal area to help you create a more contoured and defined figure.

Dr. Danielle DeLuca-Pytell, a board-certified plastic surgeon, understands the unique concerns of male patients. She takes the time to listen to your concerns, guiding you toward your dream physique in a comfortable office setting. For more information about abdominoplasty in Troy, schedule a consultation today.

What Is an Abdominoplasty?

Following dramatic weight loss, you may experience sagging abdominal skin as well as the loss of muscular tone and definition in the stomach region. An abdominoplasty is an ideal procedure for Troy patients seeking to enhance the appearance of their midsection.

Abdominoplasty removes excess and unwanted skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening and toning areas that cannot be addressed with diet and exercise alone. If you experience any of the aforementioned issues, you may be a good candidate for a post-weight loss abdominoplasty. Together, we can help you complete your bodily transformation.

What Can I Expect During My Troy Abdominoplasty Procedure?

A full abdominoplasty typically takes around three hours. We provide general anesthesia, so you will not be awake during the procedure.

Dr. DeLuca-Pytell creates an incision from one hip to the other with an additional incision around the belly button. Through these incisions, she removes excess stomach skin and fat and brings the abdominal muscles together. She then tightens and stitches the remaining stomach skin to give you a slimmer, trimmer, and more toned midsection. She will reposition the belly button. Dr. DeLuca-Pytell conceals incisions as much as possible, and the remaining scars will fade over time.

Recovery From Your Abdominoplasty After Weight Loss

During your initial consultation, we perform a full medical assessment to determine what treatment is the right choice for you. If you decide to pursue an abdominoplasty or any other type of surgical procedure, we provide personalized directions to aid in your recovery.

Some general tips we offer patients to support healing include avoiding working out or heavy lifting for at least six weeks following your procedure. You should also wear compression garments as prescribed, maintain a healthy diet, and attend all follow-up appointments.

Following these general tips is advisable to ensure you can enjoy your results for as long as possible, possibly even permanently. If you develop any questions while recovering from your abdominoplasty, call our Troy office for guidance and support.
