Glens Falls Tummy Tucks
You eat right and exercise, but for a flatter stomach, you could need extra help. A tummy tuck removes abdominal skin and fat and re-tightens stomach muscles.
Dr. Garcia is able to customize the
tummy tuck procedure based on your needs. If you have a fairly small amount of belly fat and would like a more contoured abdomen, a mini-tummy tuck may be a good choice. For loose abdominal muscles and stretched skin, Dr. Garcia performs total abdominoplasty.
Loosened muscles, saggy skin, and belly fat can prompt men and women to consider abdominoplasty:
- Tummy tucks change the appearance of loose skin that has lost shape and elasticity and won't respond to diet or exercise
- After pregnancy, many women are bothered by stretch marks or C-section scars – a tummy tuck tightens while removing stretched skin and old scars
- Many people are self conscious about flabby skin around their stomach, and often find that a more balanced figure boosts self confidence
- Patients often choose abdominoplasty to regain a youthful appearance, providing improved muscle tone and a slimmer figure
Patient Stories
Shannon's Tummy Tuck
Her rewarding career as an Operating Room Nurse interrupted, Shannon had to stop working soon after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). The steroids she was prescribed to control her disease caused her weight to increase dramatically. "I stopped counting when I reached 205 pounds," she recalls. After years of suffering with excess weight, things changed when Shannon's regular doctor moved out of the area. "My new doctor took me off the steroids and I lost a lot of weight. I got down to 145 pounds." By adding in regular exercise, Shannon lost even more weight and got down to around 138 pounds.Read Shannon's story »
Ann's "Mommy Makeover"
"In thinking about having a tummy tuck in Glens Falls, the turning point for me," Ann explains, "was when I lost weight after my second child. I dieted, I did sit ups - nothing was working." Ann took a hard look at her abdomen and realized, "It's skin. It's never going to go away." She also took note of her deflated breasts. Then she began thinking about finding a cosmetic surgeon in Saratoga Springs or Glens Falls for a combination tummy tuck and breast augmentation. Read Ann's story »
