San Diego and La Jolla Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
The tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, procedure is appropriate for both men and women seeking to achieve slender body contours and eliminate fat and excess tissue from the abdominal area. Dr. Mark Mofid provides abdominoplasty surgery to all areas of San Diego, including La Jolla and Chula Vista. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) surgery is especially effective for men and women with overhangs of fat in the lower abdominal area and women attempting to restore their figures after pregnancy.
Candidates
The best candidates for abdominoplasty surgery are men and women who have excess tissue and fat concentrated in the abdominal area. People who have lost weight or who have gained weight due to genetics or aging may be good candidates for tummy tuck procedures. Abdominoplasty surgery is especially common for women who have been pregnant and wish to restore their figures. The best way to determine candidacy is to visit one of Dr. Mark Mofid's offices in the San Diego and La Jolla area. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) surgery should be comprehensively discussed with Dr. Mofid prior to treatment to ensure that it will address the patient's aesthetic concerns.
Procedure
Dr. Mark Mofid evaluates each patient and tailors the abdominoplasty procedure to his or her needs. Some patients will require the full abdominoplasty, while patients who have fat localized beneath the navel may benefit from the partial, or mini, abdominoplasty. In either case, excess fat and tissue is trimmed away by Dr. Mofid. The abdominal muscles are also tightened to produce a firm, fit appearance.
Results
Patients of Dr. Mark Mofid's who have undergone tummy tuck surgery find that, after surgery, they have dropped several clothing sizes and have much more slender appearances. The waist is much narrower. Patients also have firmer, more toned abdomens due to the muscle-tightening and removal of fat involved in the abdominoplasty procedure. Individual patients are advised to see Dr. Mofid for free consultations that will help to determine what will be involved in the procedure for them and to learn more about their possible results.
