When you think of tummy tucks, you might automatically include them with mommy makeovers. They’re an essential part of a mommy makeover, but a reputable plastic surgeon in Oregon like Neaman Plastic Surgery also performs many tummy tucks on men. Also known as abdominoplasty, these surgeries are usually performed with liposuction and ab tightening to give patients a strong, flat stomach.
Of course, post-partum women often benefit from a tummy tuck. Pregnancy can lead to belly weight gain, flabby tummy skin, and weak abs. However, men are also often good candidates for a tummy tuck. They have a tendency to put on weight in their bellies more than other areas of their body. That “beer belly” can be treated with a tummy tuck, especially if the man has already lost some weight. People often don’t realize that fat loss is just part of the equation. When big amounts of fat are lost, especially in a short amount of time, the skin might not “snap back.” Fortunately, a tummy tuck can help.
Tummy tucks are serious surgeries that remove excess skin from the belly while tightening the abs. Your exact scar will vary based on the amount of skin to be removed and its location. Most tummy tuck scars span from hip bone to hip bone. They are hidden below the line of the underwear so patients can wear bathing suits or swim trunks with ease.

Unfortunately, there’s no solution for bothersome sagging skin besides surgery. Procedures, such as laser skin treatments, can help to tighten lax skin in minor situations. However, when someone is a candidate for a tummy tuck they likely have ample amounts of skin to be removed. If you’re frustrated that your weight loss has left you with saggy skin as a reminder, there are solutions. An Oregon plastic surgeon specializing in tummy tucks can restore or give you the taut stomach you want. Contact Neaman Plastic Surgery today for a tummy tuck consultation.
