Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) In Los Angeles
At Batal Plastic Surgery, Dr. Obaida Batal performs tummy tucks using a muscle-tightening and skin-reshaping approach designed to flatten the abdomen and refine the waist. During surgery, he removes excess skin, repairs stretched or separated abdominal muscles, and pairs the tummy tuck with strategic liposuction to enhance contouring. This is all customized to create a smoother, tighter midsection with a naturally defined silhouette.
Dr. Batal also performs sub-Scarpa’s fat resection, which helps improve blood supply to the area and creates even more midsection definition. This technique allows for better skin redraping, a smoother waistline, and a sharper transition through the lower abdomen.
He focuses on natural-looking results, low and discreet incision placement, and balanced waist contouring from every angle. Depending on your needs, he may recommend a full tummy tuck with muscle plication, a mini tummy tuck, or an extended tummy tuck. Liposuction is included as part of the sculpting process and tailored to each patient.
Every patient receives a full one-hour consultation with Dr. Batal to examine the area, discuss goals, and build a personalized surgical plan. The $75 consultation fee applies toward your procedure.
Who is a good candidate?
A tummy tuck is ideal for patients with loose abdominal skin following pregnancy or significant weight loss. The best candidates are in good overall health, at or near a stable weight, and non-smokers.
While tummy tucks are often recommended after you've finished having children, this isn't always required. Depending on your goals and future family plans, Dr. Batal can customize the procedure to improve abdominal contour while preserving options for future pregnancy when appropriate.
A tummy tuck does involve a low abdominal incision that is typically concealed beneath underwear or swimwear, and patients should be prepared for several weeks of recovery. During your consultation, Dr. Batal will determine whether a tummy tuck is the right procedure for your anatomy and aesthetic goals.
