Maryland Tummy Tuck

In Maryland, abdominoplasty is a top procedure of choice among women and men who wish to tighten abdominal skin for a firmer, more attractive midsection. The skin removed by Maryland tummy tuck specialist Dr. Daniel P. Markmann is usually the area between the belly button and the pubic hair. The belly button itself is not actually moved, but is instead brought out through newly tightened skin in the same position. Sometimes, for Dr. Markmann's Maryland patients, simultaneous liposuction of the hips helps achieve better results.

What is a Tummy Tuck?

Abdominoplasty - more commonly known as "tummy tuck" - is a procedure for men or women who have excess or stretched out skin, particularly in the mid and lower abdominal region.

Other advantages to tummy tuck surgery include tightening of the abdominal muscles and the removal of excess belly fat. Sometimes, Dr. Markmann's Maryland abdominoplasty patients request liposuction of the hips to help them achieve even more dramatic results. Liposuction and tummy tuck are not always performed together; but often, at our Maryland abdominoplasty practice, they go hand-in-hand. Procedures like mommy makeover, which combine a breast lift with a tummy tuck, are also popular.

A tummy tuck in Maryland is usually done as an outpatient procedure. Typically, the patient may be unable to stand completely straight for several days. After this period of time, only strenuous activity will be limited. Discomfort from abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) usually doesn't last more than a week and is usually easily controlled with prescribed medications.

If you are in Maryland, tummy tuck specialist Dr. Markmann offers many different plastic surgery procedures. Take a moment to view our tummy tuck before and after photos.
