Chicago surgeons offer customized approaches including mini, full, and extended tummy tucks based on your anatomy and goals.Surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically lasts two to four hours. Most patients go home the same day. Expect swelling, tightness, and limited mobility during the first one to two weeks. Light activity resumes gradually, with full activity typically allowed after six to eight weeks. Final contour continues to refine over several months.

What Is a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)?
A tummy tuck is a body contouring procedure that removes excess skin and fat from your abdomen while tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles. This surgical procedure addresses concerns that diet and exercise alone cannot fix, such as loose skin after pregnancy or significant weight loss, and stretched abdominal muscles.During the procedure, your surgeon makes an incision along your lower abdomen, removes excess tissue, repairs the abdominal wall, and repositions your belly button if necessary. The result is a flatter, firmer abdominal profile with improved muscle tone and a more defined waistline.
