Tummy Tuck

Tummy Tuck Procedure on Cape Cod in Plymouth & Hyannis

A tummy tuck, also referred to as an abdominoplasty, is a treatment that removes both fat and skin from around the abdominal region. It is a surgical treatment that our board-certified plastic surgeons, Dr. Michael Loffredo and Dr. Seth Jones, have helped countless patients with. The ideal patient for this procedure is near their normal body weight but has access skin and fat in the abdominal region. For example, many women after pregnancy fall into this category and get an abdominoplasty as part of a mommy makeover treatment. 

What Are The Steps For Getting A Tummy Tuck?

Do Tummy Tuck Procedures Leave Scars?

Yes, the process of getting a Tummy Tuck does create a scar. Our surgeons have extensive experience ensuring that scars are placed optimally, and scars also tend to fade over time. Prior to surgery, Dr. Loffredo and Dr. Jones will discuss with patients their options on where the scar will be located. Patients are encouraged to bring articles of clothing (e.g., bathing suit or pants) to their pre-operative visit to help determine their optimal scar location. After tummy tuck surgery, many patients comment on how nicely their clothes fit, especially pants.

What is a "Mini" Tummy Tuck?

A mini-abdominoplasty or mini tummy tuck removes sagging skin around the abdominal area, but there is no plication of the true abdominal wall like a traditional abdominoplasty. Because of this, a patient who receives a mini tummy tuck will see less dramatic results. When it comes to body contouring, our goal at Cape & Islands Plastic Surgery is to help match patients to the perfect treatment or treatment plan based on their goals. We make decisions based on a patient’s desired results, treatment areas, previous experiences, and preferences.
