A Tummy Tuck Can Get Rid Of That Extra Roll That Dieting May Not
By Anne Harvester
Denver, Colorado residents, like many people around the country, work at losing that last five to ten pounds. You can and exercise very diligently, and still be left with excess fat around your midsection. If this describes you, there is help available. A Colorado tummy tuck can help to smooth your stomach, making clothes fit better and giving you the appearance you desire.
The medical term for Denver tummy tucks is abdominoplasty. This is a procedure that may benefit those with skin that has been stretched through pregnancy or with weight fluctuations.
Your surgeon will discuss every aspect of the Colorado tummy tuck with you to help you decide if this procedure is right for you. You have the ability to lose weight and thus change the shape of the fat layer of your abdomen, but you are mostly unable to change the shape of the underlying abdominal muscles and unable to change the drape of the skin. Your surgeon will focus primarily on the muscle and skin in a Colorado tummy tuck; liposuction may be an additional procedure to consider as well.
Successful Denver tummy tucks require the skill and artistry of an experienced plastic surgeon. A skilled surgeon will spend a great deal of time resculpting your
tummy into a more pleasing shape. The belly button requires particular attention in a Colorado tummy tuck, both for placement to avoid scars being seen as well appearance.
Certain techniques are used during Denver tummy tucks that you will want to be aware of. An incision is typically made across the lower part of the abdomen, and also one around the belly button. The muscles are tightened and reshaped, and excess skin and fat are removed, and the skin tightened. Then the belly button is repositioned, and liposuction can be done to shape transition zones around the abdomen. Complete Denver tummy tucks and partial tummy tucks are available. The Colorado tummy tuck surgery may also be combined with other procedures, such as liposuction and breast augmentation or reduction.
Depending on the extent of your Colorado tummy tuck, recovery times can vary from a week for initial recovery to six week until more vigorous activities can be resumed. Colorado tummy tuck patients will wear a surgical garment for the first month after surgery to help provide support and reduce swelling. Pain medications are given for the first few days as well.
