Houston Tummy Tuck/ Abdominoplasty
Located in Sugar Land Texas and serving Fort Bend County,
Pearland, Katy, Galveston and the surrounding Houston community.
Abdominoplasty or Tummy Tuck is a surgical procedure designed to remove the extra loose skin and fat from your stomach. If you have had babies or recently had weight loss you are often left with extra skin and stretch marks on your lower stomach. Also post-partum women (those that have had babies) suffer from laxity of the stomach strength layer from their pregnancies. Abdominoplasty/Tummy tuck surgically removes your extra skin and allows the surgeon to tighten the strength layer of your stomach.
Before your tummy tuck procedure:
During your consultation Dr. Humble, a Houston Tummy Tuck surgeon, will discuss with you your surgical options, including incision placement, potential risks of the surgery and what surgery is right for you. With your input an appropriate surgical plan will be formulated.
Where do we perform tummy tuck operations?
Abdominoplasty/ Tummy Tuck surgery is performed in a certified surgical center under general anesthesia. The surgery typical takes 1- 2 hours
Abdominoplasty/ Tummy tuck recovery:
Post surgical discomfort is managed with oral pain medication and close follow up will be preformed by Dr. Humble. No sutures have to be removed since the sutures typically will be absorbable.
Patients typically return to work one week after their operation and aerobic exercise can be restarted approximately one month after surgery.
