They say the skin is like a canvas, but sometimes it stretches a little too far off the frame! As the largest organ in the body, it is designed to stretch, especially in the abdomen. Unfortunately, it is not so great at contracting —and no amount of dieting or exercise can help with that. But fear not, with a tummy tuck, we’ll help you trim away the excess and get back to showcasing your dream figure.

“Dr. Fodero is a true blessing. I’m so happy that I became his patient. I had a botched surgery at age 16 and had 4 C-sections. My body was screaming for help. Every morning when I took a shower, I was sad and sometimes cried. Dr. Fodero is an artist, he values his work and his patients. He is so sweet, and has wonderful bedside manners.” —Brenda (realself.com)

About the Procedure

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure through which a surgeon removes excess fat and skin from the abdominal area. The end result is a trimmer, tighter, and fitter silhouette that looks natural and makes you feel rejuvenated and confident again.

And that’s not all. Oftentimes, the doctor can also remove stretch marks and imperfections during the surgery as well.

As an invasive procedure, general anesthesia is administered to ensure maximum comfort and better results. Although there is minimal scarring after the procedure, Dr. Fodero strategically makes the incisions along the bikini lines so that the marks are discreet and easy to hide.

Depending on the full extent of the procedure, you may spend a night or two at the clinic. However, the recovery process is quite standard and most people can go back to their everyday lives gradually two weeks after the surgery.

Be your body’s advocate. As with any medical procedure, speak to your doctor to make the most informed decision.
