Why consider a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)?

If you experience any of the following symptoms or conditions, you may be a good candidate for a tummy tuck:

Protruding abdomen that is out of proportion to the rest of your body, as can occur following pregnancy, weight loss or other significant changes to the abdomen.
Excess of sagging abdominal skin or fatty tissue in your mid or lower abdomen.

The best candidates for a tummy tuck are those who maintain a healthy diet and exercise program but still experience loose skin and a protruding abdomen. This procedure tightens up the abdominal area in order to recreate a more flattering figure. In addition, those who have lost skin elasticity can be helped greatly as this procedure will remove excess skin, tightening what is left behind. Chicago plastic surgeon, Dr. Springer can advise you further on the details of the tummy tuck procedure.

How do I select a competent plastic surgeon for my tummy tuck?

Perhaps your most important decision regarding a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) surgery is the choice of your plastic surgeon. One way to ensure that your physician can offer you the care you deserve is to make sure he or she is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. This is the only plastic surgery board recognized by the American Medical Association and the American Hospital Association in Plastic Surgery. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), two prestigious national associations, require that all of their members pass the plastic surgery board exams. Choosing a surgeon who is a member of one or both of these associations ensures that he or she is well educated and has years of experience in the field of cosmetic surgery. Chicago plastic surgeon, Dr. Springer is certified by all these organizations and has over 30 years of experience in plastic surgery.
