A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is designed to remove excess skin and tighten the abdominal muscles, creating a smoother, firmer midsection. Whether due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging, loose skin and weakened muscles can make it difficult to achieve the toned look you want—even with diet and exercise. A tummy tuck restores definition and contours, helping you feel more confident in your own skin.
✔️ Remove loose or sagging skin after weight loss or pregnancy.
✔️ Tighten stretched or weakened abdominal muscles for a firmer core.
✔️ Improve body contours and enhance natural proportions.
✔️ Feel more confident in fitted clothing and swimwear.
For even more sculpted results, many patients choose to combine a tummy tuck with liposuction for enhanced waist definition, often referred to as an Hour Glass Tummy Tuck. It can also be combined with buttock enlargement for a sculpted, slimmer overall appearance.
Dr. Freedland’s tummy tuck technique prioritizes safety, comfort, and natural-looking results:
✔️A fluid infusion reduces blood loss and minimizes discomfort.
✔️An incision is placed low and discreetly, so it’s easily hidden.
✔️Excess skin is removed, and the abdominal muscles are tightened for a flatter, more toned appearance.
Each procedure is customized to your unique goals, whether you need a mini tummy tuck for a small amount of excess skin, a full tummy tuck or a extended abdominoplasty for more comprehensive tightening.

If you have loose skin, stretched abdominal muscles, or excess tissue in your midsection that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise, a tummy tuck may be right for you. Ideal candidates are in good health and at a stable weight.
A tummy tuck is not a weight-loss procedure but a body contouring surgery. It removes excess skin and tightens muscles for a smoother, firmer look.
Most patients can return to light activities within 1-2 weeks, with full recovery taking about 4-6 weeks. Dr. Freedland provides detailed aftercare guidance for a smooth healing process.
Absolutely! Many patients choose to enhance their results by combining a tummy tuck with liposuction for a more sculpted, defined waistline. And some patients choose to combine Tummy Tuck with a Thigh Lift to achieve a more balanced, contoured look.
You will notice an immediate improvement in your abdominal contour after surgery, but swelling and healing take time. Most patients see significant results within 2-3 weeks, with final results becoming fully visible around 6 months as swelling subsides and the tissues settle. Scars will continue to fade over the next year.
The cost of a tummy tuck varies based on factors such as the complexity of the procedure, whether liposuction is included, and individual patient needs. During your consultation, we will provide a personalized cost estimate and discuss financing options to help make your procedure as accessible as possible.

After having kids, no amount of exercise could tighten my stomach the way I wanted. My tummy tuck gave me back my confidence, and I finally feel comfortable in my clothes again!”

I was nervous about surgery, but the results are beyond what I imagined. My stomach is tight, my waist looks amazing, and my scar is barely noticeable!
