What Is a Tummy Tuck?

Also known as abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck is a surgical procedure designed to improve the shape and tone of the abdomen. It focuses on removing excess fat and skin, tightening the muscles in the abdominal wall, and creating a new navel as necessary to remedy problems like a bulging or sagging belly.
Dr Sood, a highly experienced surgeon specializing in tummy tuck procedures, will provide you with experienced guidance on a transformation journey toward achieving a more streamlined and toned abdominal appearance.
Excess Abdominal Fat and Skin. A tummy tuck can remove protruding belly fat and droopy skin, resulting in a flatter and firmer abdomen.
Weak Abdominal Muscles. Loss of muscle tone due to age, pregnancy, or significant weight change can cause a belly. Excess fat or a growing baby during pregnancy can also cause muscles that make up the abdominal wall to separate, allowing the organs behind to bulge outward. A tummy tuck reinforces and repairs weak muscles, leading to a more toned and slender profile. Post-Pregnancy Abdominal Changes. After having a baby, stretched skin or diastasis recti (separation of abdominal muscles) can be effectively remedied with a tummy tuck. Weight Loss After Effects. Following significant weight loss—whether due to lifestyle choices, surgery, or prescription treatments—you may be left with sagging abdominal skin. A tummy tuck helps contour your body to fit your new, healthier size.

Benefits of a Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck, while primarily a cosmetic procedure, provides an array of benefits beyond aesthetics.

Enhanced Appearance

Tummy tucks deliver significant improvement to your abdominal profile, giving you a flatter, firmer, and more toned belly.

Boost in Confidence

Improving your physical appearance can lead to increased self-confidence, positively impacting various aspects of your life, from your personal relationships to your professional growth.

Long-Lasting Results

With a healthy, balanced lifestyle, tummy tuck results can last for many years, leading to long-term confidence.

Improved Posture

Tightening the abdominal muscles can help to better your posture. Fortifying the muscles aids in spinal support, potentially relieving certain types of back pain.

Less Chafing

Sagging skin can rub against the skin beneath, and thick folds often cause friction, heat, rashes, and other problems. Removing this skin—often referred to as an “apron” when hanging from the belly—resolves these problems.

How Do Patients Prepare for a Tummy Tuck?

To ensure a successful procedure and speedy recovery, proper preparation before the surgery is vital. Here are the key steps to your preparation for the procedure:

Medical Evaluation and Lab Testing

Depending on your current health status, Dr. Sood may request medical evaluations or laboratory tests to ensure your readiness for the surgery.

Medication Adjustment

Based on your current medications, you might need to make some adjustments before the procedure. Dr. Sood will guide you accordingly.

Quit Smoking

Since smoking can disrupt the healing process, it’s advisable to stop the habit several weeks before (and after) the surgery.

Avoid Certain Drugs and Supplements

Substances known to promote bleeding—including certain medications and supplements—should be quit prior to the procedure in order to minimize bruising and related side effects. It’s also crucial to arrange for someone to drive you home after the procedure and assist you for at least the first night. Proper post-operative care is pivotal to achieving the best results.

How Much Does a Tummy Tuck Cost?

The cost of the surgery varies, with pricing depending on the extent of the procedure and your specific goals. You’ll receive details on cost during your consultation.

What Is the Sood Center Tummy Tuck Experience?

At Sood Center, your experience from initial consultation to post-procedure care is prioritized for comfort, safety, and satisfaction, making the process supportive and informative.

During the consultation, Dr. Sood will discuss your objectives, review your medical history, perform a thorough physical examination of your abdomen, and present a range of surgical options, including potential complementary procedures. This ensures you understand your tailored plan and expected outcomes.
The procedure, lasting two to four hours, is performed with the patient under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation with either a full or mini tummy tuck technique, depending on your specific goals. Upon completion, you’re monitored in a recovery room for safety. Dedicated post-procedure care includes detailed instructions for recovery, medication prescriptions, assistance with compression garments or drains, regular progress follow-ups with Dr. Sood, and advice on activity resumption and nutrition.

Sood Center’s personalized treatment plans, modern techniques, and holistic aftercare guidance all work together for a satisfying, effective tummy tuck experience.

What Happens After a Tummy Tuck Procedure?

Compression garments may be used post-surgery to reduce swelling and provide support during the healing phase. With a balanced diet and regular exercise, the results of a tummy tuck can last for many years, giving you a lasting flat and firm abdomen.
