Dr. Gary Motykie Performs Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

 

Achieving a flat, well-toned abdomen is a common goal, but sometimes diet and exercise alone aren't sufficient. While these efforts can enhance muscle tone and reduce body fat, they don't address stretched abdominal skin or separated muscles caused by factors like pregnancy or significant weight changes. The most effective solution for these issues is abdominoplasty, commonly known as a "tummy tuck."


 

Abdominoplasty is a procedure designed to contour the abdomen by addressing sagging skin, stretch marks, and a protruding abdomen. To understand its benefits, it helps to consider the abdomen's three layers: muscle, fat, and skin. Weight gain or pregnancy can stretch or damage any of these layers irreparably. Even with weight loss, excess skin and stretch marks may persist, and abdominal muscles can become stretched or separated, leading to a persistent bulge.

When exercise and diet fail to restore a normal abdominal appearance, surgical correction becomes necessary. Dr. Gary Motykie has refined abdominoplasty into an art form, going beyond simply removing excess fat and skin. His techniques sculpt and contour the abdomen with minimal, discreet incisions, often enhancing the appearance of the belly button for a natural look.

While both men and women can benefit from abdominoplasty, it's particularly sought after by women affected by childbirth, often part of a comprehensive "mommy makeover" with other body contouring procedures. Ideal candidates are generally healthy individuals seeking to repair abdominal muscle separation and remove stubborn excess skin.

Although recovery from abdominoplasty may be longer than from other cosmetic surgeries, the results are highly rewarding for those distressed by abdominal bulging and stretch marks. However, it's important to note that abdominoplasty is not a substitute for weight loss or proper exercise. Patients more than 15% over their ideal weight are encouraged to pursue weight loss through healthy lifestyle changes before considering surgery. Those who maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine both before and after surgery tend to achieve longer-lasting and more effective results.

In conclusion, adopting a balanced diet and regular exercise regimen before and after abdominoplasty not only enhances surgical outcomes but also improves overall health and recovery. This proactive approach ensures patients maintain their results and enjoy a healthier lifestyle post-surgery.
