What Is a Tummy Tuck?
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at removing excess skin, stretch marks, and fat from the abdomen while tightening the abdominal wall muscles. At Iorio Plastic Surgery & Medspa, Dr. Louis Iorio performs this procedure to sculpt a leaner silhouette and address aesthetic concerns related to abdominal contour.

How Does a Tummy Tuck Work?
During a tummy tuck procedure, excess skin and fatty deposits are surgically removed from the abdomen, and the underlying abdominal muscles are tightened and repositioned. This results in a smoother, firmer abdominal contour and improved waistline definition. Dr. Iorio customizes each procedure to meet the unique needs and goals of the patient, ensuring natural-looking and satisfying outcomes.
Benefits of a Tummy Tuck
Tighter, Flatter Stomach
Enjoy a more defined abdominal contour, free from stubborn bulges and excess skin, resulting in a sleeker, more sculpted appearance.
Restored Muscle Integrity
Address diastasis recti, a common post-pregnancy issue, to restore core strength and stability, promoting better posture and abdominal function.
Enhanced Confidence
Experience a significant boost in self-assurance and body confidence as you achieve a firmer, more youthful midsection, allowing you to feel comfortable and poised in your skin.
Post-Pregnancy Rejuvenation
Restore your pre-pregnancy figure and confidence by eliminating loose skin and tightening abdominal muscles, helping you regain your shape and vitality after childbirth.
