Tummy Tuck Phoenix

When it comes to the latest technique in refining abdominoplasty, Phoenix tummy tuck specialist Dr. Richard D. Fisher, M.D. is leading the way!

With extensive training by surgeons in the U.S. and Europe, Dr. Fisher has perfected the liposuction tummy tuck which is preferred abroad because of its shorter recovery period and lower complication rate versus the traditional tummy tuck.

Recently pregnant women, or men and women who have lost dramatic amounts of weight, are often left with drooping, stretched-out abdominal skin and weakened abdominal musculature. Unfortunately, even the strictest diet and rigorous fitness plan cannot always correct this problem, leaving a person feeling unsightly and less desirable. Many of these people turn to abdominoplasty, or the tummy tuck, to regain a positive body image and increase their self-esteem.

The traditional abdominoplasty technique includes:

  1. Making an incision from hip to hip in the lower abdomen
  2. Lifting the skin of the abdomen along with the underlying fat layer off of the muscle wall from just above pubic area to the ribcage
  3. Tightening the abdominal muscles in the middle of the abdomen if they are weak or separated
  4. Taking out the damaged skin below the belly button and pulling the remaining skin down to cover the defect
  5. Making a new exit for the belly button in this skin which was pulled down

In contrast to the traditional tummy tuck, liposuction abdominoplasty combines liposuction with skin resection and muscle tightening in one technique! Patients tend to heal faster and are able to return to work in less time. They also experience fewer complications than traditional abdominoplasty which often results in a "dog ear" appearance at the ends of the surgical incision, fluid collections, and/or an over-stretched appearance to the skin.

Dr. Fisher takes pride in his more natural looking and visually pleasing results achieved through liposuction abdominoplasty.
