Tummy Tuck : Austin plastic surgeon, Dr. Ersek

If you have experienced massive weight loss or pregnancy you can lose the elasticity and loss of myscle tone in your stomach. For these patients, Dr. Ersek often recommends the tummy tuck procedure or the tummy tuck done in conjunction with liposuction. A tummy tuck (or abdominoplasty) is a procedure which removes your excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and tightens the muscles in your abdominal wall.

Dr. Ersek believes that ideal tummy tuck patients will be close to their ideal weight and be in relatively good shape. A tummy tuck surgery is also helpful if you have stretched your abdominal muscles and skin beyond the point where it can shrink back with diet or exercise.

Dr. Ersek believes that not every patient is the same and that an approach for your tummy tuck should be individualized. That is why he suggests you come in for a complimentary consultation to discuss what you hope to accomplish from the surgery. He will answer any questions you might have and make sure you are comfortable with the procedure. We do recommend you write a list of questions and bring them to the appointment to consult with Dr. Ersek. If you do forget to ask during the consultation, you can always call the office.
