What Is A Tummy Tuck?

For both women and men, sagging skin and excess fat on the stomach can feel frustrating to lose when you try to eat healthily and exercise. Significant weight loss, childbirth, and aging can impact your ability to attain a slimmer tummy. Achieving attractive results for patients, an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck is a cosmetic procedure that tightens the stomach area. In Tulsa, OK, Dr. Angelo Cuzalina personalizes your tummy tuck so you can attain your desired results. This cosmetic treatment at Tulsa Surgical Arts gives patients the opportunity to have a redefined physique and restored confidence. To learn more about how a tummy tuck can help you attain your cosmetic goals, please contact us and schedule your consultation.

Is A Tummy Tuck For You?

At Tulsa Surgical Arts, we can perform abdominoplasty on both men and women. If you struggle with sagging skin or stubborn pockets of fat on the stomach, a tummy tuck can help you look slimmer and more toned. Before undergoing this treatment, Dr. Cuzalina recommends being at a stable weight because it could impact your final results. It is important to realize that abdominoplasty is not a weight loss procedure; instead, it focuses on loose skin and tightening the muscles. We may incorporate liposuction to eliminate fat and to enhance your results. However, if your lower stomach has healthy skin tightness, but you still feel unhappy with the appearance of your tummy, you may be a better candidate for liposuction. For long-lasting results, women considering this treatment should be past pregnancy.

I had a wonderful experience with Tulsa Surgical Arts. I used Dr. Anthony Congiusta for a tummy tuck with associated lipo and a breast lift with augmentation. I can not describe how happy I am with my results. People close to me are blown away by the difference and amazed it was possible to get the results that I did. Dr. Congiusta gave me my life back ( not trying to sound dramatic but it is true) in so many ways. I not only had lost almost 100lbs but I breastfed for a combined 5 years so there was a lot of damage that had been done to my body. I now look and feel like I always have in my mind but physically never matched. When I went in for my consultation I asked Dr. Congiusta what set him apart from other surgeons and he said his genuine care for his patients and the individual attention he provides to each patient. His answer struck a cord with me and he proved his answer to be true. Dr. Congiusta is seriously the nicest man and makes you feel very comfortable. This combined with his skills as a surgeon made it an easy choice when choosing who I was going to entrust with my body. It is scary trusting someone you don't know with your health and appearance but he made it as easy as possible. After surgery I purchased a lymphatic massage package from Brandy. This made a world of difference in my recovery. It was so nice to have someone lay eyes on my incisions and progress weekly, it gave me peace of mind. Brandy sent pics every session to Dr. Congiusta so he could monitor my progress as well. Brandy answered every question I had with unmatched expertise. I honestly looked forward to our sessions because it was such a great experience every time. Her work really cut down on the amount of swelling and moved the healing process along. I truly believe my results look more like someone 6+ months out at only 3 months. If you are taking this step being fully committed to the post care is essential and a huge component of that is seeing Brandy. The staff is amazing as well. When I came in for follow up appointments or lymphatic massages they all knew my name and were friendly/helpful. I always felt welcomed and supported. If you are thinking of having any kind of work done I strongly suggest going for a consult because you won't be disappointed.

Very professional and caring staff, from consultation to procedure results was excellent. I have gotten so many compliments from strangers young and old. People stop me and tell me how gorgeous I am and for a lady a few years from the age of 60 ,it has given me a boost on feeling young again. It was tummy tuck , bbl or new Mazda Miata. Very happy I chose the tummy tuck and bbl ,opposed to Mazda Miata.

I am 9 weeks post op and I am SO happy with my results. After losing 80lbs on my own, I had a tummy tuck with associated liposuction, breast augmentation and lift with a free nipple graft. I also had lymphatic drainage sessions with Brandy which were very helpful in my recovery. Brandy was always available to answer any of my questions. Dr. Cuzalina is the best! I would recommend him to anyone that is considering cosmetic surgery!

As someone who has recently undergone a full tummy tuck, breast lift with augmentation, and liposuction procedure, I am thrilled to share my experience and the remarkable results I’ve achieved. From consultation to recovery, every step of the process was meticulously handled by the skilled team at [Cosmetic Surgery Clinic]. Firstly, let’s talk about the full tummy tuck. After years of struggling with excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles post-pregnancy, I decided it was time for a change. The surgery not only removed the stubborn belly fat but also tightened the abdominal muscles, giving me a toned and sculpted midsection I’ve always dreamed of. The incision lines are barely noticeable, thanks to the surgeon’s precision and expertise. Next, the breast lift with augmentation. Gravity and age had taken a toll on my breasts, leaving them saggy and deflated. The combination of lift and augmentation not only restored volume but also lifted my confidence to new heights. The results are natural-looking and proportionate to my body, enhancing my overall silhouette. Additionally, the liposuction procedure targeted stubborn pockets of fat in areas such as the thighs, hips, and flanks. The outcome is a more contoured and balanced physique, accentuating the results of the tummy tuck and breast enhancement. Throughout the entire process, the staff at Tulsa Surgical Arts provided exceptional care and support. From pre-operative consultations to post-operative follow-ups, they ensured I felt comfortable and well-informed at every stage. The recovery process was smoother than I anticipated, thanks to their comprehensive guidance and personalized care plan. In conclusion, undergoing a full tummy tuck, breast lift with augmentation, and liposuction at Tulsa Surgical Arts has been truly life-changing. Not only have I achieved the physical transformation I desired, but I also feel a newfound sense of confidence and self-assurance. I highly recommend their services to anyone considering cosmetic surgery, as they prioritize safety, professionalism, and remarkable results.

What Are The Benefits Of A Tummy Tuck?

Small fat pockets and loose skin can be frustrating and make you feel embarrassed about your middle. You may avoid going to the beach or pool or wearing your favorite items of clothing. Hanging skin around the abdomen can also cause issues with chafing and rashes. A tummy tuck can help you achieve a slimmer stomach by targeting these specific problem areas directly. Patients also find it easier to exercise or perform other physical activities with a flatter belly. Allow us to restore your body's natural form and function by scheduling a consultation.

Surgical Technique

We perform tummy tuck surgery with general anesthesia. Before your procedure, Dr. Cuzalina will consider various incision techniques, which he tailors to meet your needs. To start, the incision size is determined based on the amount of excess skin. Some patients with an abundance of sagging skin may require a full tummy tuck. A full or extended tummy tuck places the incision from hip to hip, just on top of the pubic area. Patients who have minimal skin laxity may only need a mini tummy tuck. These patients still benefit from skin tightening, but they have a smaller scar. Regardless of the technique, all tummy tuck procedures at Tulsa Surgical Arts involve body contouring and liposuction.

What To Expect

After completing your surgery, we will carefully monitor you and send you home in a compression garment to assist with swelling. Standing upright and walking may feel painful for a while so you should take it easy for a few days. Resuming normal movement becomes less painful once the abdominal muscles adjust and the incision heals. Most patients can resume their normal routines in around two weeks. Generally, workouts can restart in around eight weeks or when Dr. Cuzalina lets you know. The abdomen will feel sore and tight, but you will look and feel normal after recovering.

How much does a tummy tuck cost?

During your initial consultation, Dr. Cuzalina will develop your unique treatment plan based on your specific needs and goals before estimating costs. He will be able to better estimate your costs when the type of tummy tuck has been decided, which technique will be used, what anesthesia is needed, and other factors. To ensure you get high-quality results from a skilled surgeon, Tulsa Surgical Arts makes it easier to afford your tummy tuck by taking many payment methods and giving you information on low-interest medical financing.

What type of tummy tuck should I get?

There are three most common techniques for tummy tucks: full, mini, and extended. During your consultation, Dr. Cuzalina will listen to your needs and goals before examining your stomach. Then, he can better decide the technique that will produce your best results. A full tummy tuck is good if you want to fix issues in the lower and upper stomach, while a mini tummy tuck is better if you only have concerns under your belly button, like a "pooch." The extended technique can improve the abdomen plus your upper thighs and hips.

What will my scars look like?

Surgical incisions for your tummy tuck will vary based on which type you are getting. For all tummy tucks, Dr. Cuzalina uses the thinnest incisions needed to limit scars. He also places incisions in less visible areas (through the belly button or in the pubic region), so they may be hidden by underwear or a swimsuit. Following your tummy tuck, it is important to adhere to your scar management instructions, so your incisions heal properly and eventually blend into your natural skin.

Is it okay to get pregnant after a tummy tuck?

While you can still get pregnant after an abdominoplasty, it will likely affect your results. Dr. Cuzalina strongly encourages that you be done with planned pregnancies and childbirth before you consider an abdominoplasty. If you do become pregnant after a tummy tuck, a second surgery may be done to refresh your stomach.

Can I combine a tummy tuck with another surgery?

A lot of patients get another body surgery with abdominoplasty to give them more dramatic results. At your consultation with Dr. Cuzalina, talk to him about all of your concerns so a unique treatment plan can be developed to match your aesthetic goals. You might combine a tummy tuck with a thighplasty for a lower body lift or several areas for all over body contouring. If you want to rejuvenate your body after having children or losing a lot of weight, you may be a good candidate for a mommy makeover or after weight loss surgery.
