Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) tightens and tones the midsection by removing excess skin and reshaping the abdominal contour. Whether due to age, genetics, or post-pregnancy changes, when workouts aren’t enough, a tummy tuck can help you achieve the smooth, confident silhouette you’ve worked hard for.

Liposuction

Struggling with stubborn fat despite a healthy lifestyle? Liposuction at Southern Surgical Arts can help sculpt the shape you’ve been working toward. Our expert team tailors each treatment to refine your contours and enhance your confidence.

Achieve the Silhouette You’ve Been Working Toward

A slim and shapely abdomen can say a lot about you — that you take care of yourself and maintain a healthy appearance. Having a fit midsection also makes it easier for you to maintain an active lifestyle that includes exercise, as well as more flexibility in what you can wear.

Naturally, though, as you age, the shape of the tummy and abdomen area just doesn’t look the same as it once did. Added weight, gravity, the aging process, and childbirth all can and do affect this area of your body.

The Tummy Tuck & Liposuction

Liposuction and/or a tummy tuck is one of the most effective and rewarding ways to get yourself back to the shape you had before. Liposuction, the mechanical removal of fat through suction, removes the fat, while a Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty) involves removing the loose hanging skin of the lower abdomen. A Tummy Tuck also tightens the underlying abdominal muscles.

To these procedures, Southern Surgical Arts has added an optional cutting-edge laser technology called SmartLipo to further contour for the desired result. Take a look at our before-and-after gallery to explore how Dr. Deal, Dr. Gardner, and Dr. Barker can help you achieve similar results.

Beyond the Tummy

Multiple cosmetic procedures can be done to truly transform your body and achieve your aesthetic goals.

Depending on your anatomy and situational factors, it may be best to combine the tummy tuck procedure with not only liposuction but also a thigh lift or as part of an entire body lift. 

Receiving procedures in such combinations dramatically improve the contours of your body.

For patients with excess skin and fat deposits above the waist, upper body procedures such as an arm lift or male breast reduction also significantly improve anatomical symmetry and an overall balanced and slimming look.
