TUMMY TUCK

Tummy Tuck Procedures in Fargo, ND

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is designed to remove excess skin, improve the appearance of stretch marks, and tighten the abdominal muscles for a smoother, firmer midsection. In many cases, liposuction is also performed to enhance contouring along the waistline, providing a more sculpted look.

While weight loss and exercise can help reduce body fat, they cannot correct issues like loose skin or separated abdominal muscles. A tummy tuck is the most effective solution for these concerns, especially for those who have undergone significant weight loss or pregnancy-related changes.

During a tummy tuck procedure, Dr. Adams tightens the abdominal wall using permanent sutures to bring together the underlying muscles and tissue. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is pulled taut for a smoother, more youthful appearance. Liposuction may also be used to contour the waistline or pubic area, depending on your goals. The incision is strategically placed along the pubic line to be easily concealed, even in swimwear.

We offer various types of tummy tuck procedures, including:

• Mini Tummy Tuck: For those with minimal excess skin and no need to reposition the belly button
• Standard Tummy Tuck: To address moderate to severe skin laxity and muscle separation
• Extended Tummy Tuck: For patients with a larger amount of excess skin or stretch marks

Dr. Adams will recommend the best approach based on your individual needs and aesthetic goals during your consultation.
