Tummy Tuck Salt Lake City
If you are unhappy with the shape and contour of your abdomen, Dr. Rodney E. Schmelzer, a Salt Lake City tummy tuck expert, is here to help. Tummy tuck surgery ("abdominoplasty") can flatten a protruding abdomen and remove unwanted excess skin.
If you are considering undergoing tummy tuck surgery, Dr. Schmelzer is a qualified cosmetic surgeon who performs procedures in breast surgery, body contouring, and facial cosmetics. Our Salt Lake City liposuction surgeon is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).
What will tummy tuck surgery achieve for me?
- A better contoured abdomen
- Tighter abdominal muscles
- Reduced appearance of stretch marks
- A better overall body contour
For optimal results, along with tummy tuck surgery, Dr. Schmelzer may recommend liposuction ("lipoplasty") to be performed.
What is liposuction?
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that sculpts the body through the removal of excess fat in specific areas of the bodies that have not responded to regular diet and exercise. Dr. Schmelzer performs this procedure by injecting a fluid into the treated area, then a tiny incision is made and a small hollow tube called a cannula is used to vacuum out fat.
Tummy tuck surgery may require liposuction in a case where an individual has too much excess fat in the abdomen, making it more effective in providing a better contoured physique.
