Ideal Abdominoplasty Candidate

Abdominoplasty for Patients in Tampa, Clearwater, Palm Harbor, Odessa, and Beyond – How to Know if You’re a Good Candidate

Abdominoplasty, more commonly known as a tummy tuck, is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures, especially in Florida cities like Tampa, Clearwater, and Lutz, where residents can expect to visit the beach in their bathing suits nearly year-round. If you live in sunny Florida and are thinking about undergoing an abdominoplasty, it’s important to remember that this type of surgery shouldn’t be viewed as a “quick fix” and you’ll want to see a plastic surgeon who can tell you whether or not you’re an ideal candidate for a tummy tuck procedure.

At the Bayside Center for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. John Roach places great importance on educating his patients on the benefits and risks of the surgery they are interested in. When it comes to abdominoplasty, Dr. Roach believes the procedure is most beneficial for men and women who have tried to lose excess weight around their abdomen through a healthy diet and regular exercise, but still aren’t seeing the results they want.

If you meet these criteria, an abdominoplasty can remove any loose or sagging skin and eliminate those stubborn “love handles,” giving you the smooth, flat stomach you’ve been working towards. To ensure successful results, Dr. Roach may also suggest personal fitness training prior to your tummy tuck surgery, and will also encourage you to maintain a healthy lifestyle after you’ve undergone your abdominoplasty.

If you would like to schedule a consultation with Dr. Roach to see if you can benefit from having an abdominoplasty, contact the Bayside Center for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery today. We’re happy to offer tummy tuck procedures, standard abdominal liposuction, arm lift procedures, breast augmentations, and more for residents of Tampa, Clearwater, Wesley Chapel, Trinity, and other surrounding communities.
