Your Go-To Source for a Tummy Tuck in Calgary

Loose folds of skin may remain on the abdomen after pregnancy, weight loss or simply with aging. A “tummy tuck” or abdominoplasty removes this excess skin and fat and tightens the muscles to create a smoother abdomen. Liposuction may be combined with this procedure.

A tummy tuck is your step towards a more confident and comfortable you. With the guidance and expertise of our compassionate team at Plastic Surgery Associates in Calgary, we’re committed to transforming your figure, ensuring your journey is as empowering as it is gratifying. 

What a Tummy Tuck Can Achieve:

  • Flattening and shaping of the abdomen 
  • Removal of excess skin and fat 
  • Tightening of abdominal muscles
  • Correction of separated muscles, often a result of pregnancy
  • Enhancement of body contour and waistline definition
  • Support and reinforcement of the lower abdomen

Following a thorough evaluation of your skin, underlying tissues, and general physique, we will craft a personalized surgical strategy tailored to your goals. Tummy tuck surgery is generally conducted under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure, with the option for local anesthesia with sedation in some cases.

A long incision will be made across the lower abdomen and another around the umbilicus or ”belly button” to remove the excess skin and to advance the skin from the upper abdomen to close the area of the lower abdomen from which the skin is removed. There will be a permanent scar, but usually, it is at or below the panty line.

Complications are rare but include hematoma (bleeding under the skin) and seroma (tissue fluid under the skin). Numbness just above the scar will be present but will diminish with time.

We advise that you avoid straining the abdominal muscles for six weeks following surgery. Most people can return to work within two weeks.
