Extended Tummy Tuck in Orange County
The decision on which type of tummy tuck to have, as well as the additional procedures that can safely be done during your tummy tuck, are always based solely on your body, it’s needs, and Dr. Agha’s professional recommendation. Some people only need a mini tummy tuck, in order to even out some of the areas affected by age and pregnancy. Most need a full tummy tuck – a procedure that provides the most patients with a flat stomach and healthier looking figure.
But for some – especially those that have undergone massive weight loss or are experiencing significant skin laxity – and those that have added laxity issues all around their love handles and waist, the procedure you may need is a bit more intensive. We call this procedure the “Extended Tummy Tuck,” and the best plastic surgeon in Southern California for the extended tummy tuck is Dr. Agha of Tummy Tuck Orange County.
What is the Extended Tummy Tuck?
An Extended Tummy Tuck contains all of the same components of a full tummy tuck, in-cluding tightening of the muscles of the abdominal wall, excision of excess skin and tissues, and optional liposuction when appropriate. But an extended tummy tuck incision extends a few inches further than the full tummy tuck procedure.
Designed for those with significantly more skin laxity, extended tummy tucks use an incision that extends around the waist, allowing Dr. Agha to also remove excess skin and fat from the waist or love-handles. Extended tummy tucks, like all abdominoplasty procedures, are based on the individual patient, but the specific cut and style of this procedure allows Dr. Agha to better shape bodies that are in need of more drastic changes.
The procedure takes a bit longer than a full tummy tuck, at an average of 3 to 4 hours. After the surgery, you will be given a set of instructions that you will have to follow to ensure a safe and faster recovery. But for those that are in need of an extended tummy tuck, it does provide an excellent option for better, healthier changes to the body.
Often extended tummy tuck can be combined with an outer thigh lift in order to reduce not only the waist excess, but also to lift the outer thigh tissue and correct for thigh cellulites and dimples. Both waist reduction and outer thigh lift procedures can be done through the same incision of the extended tummy tuck to achieve correction of not only the front but also the sides in pursuit of an hour-glass figure.
