Tummy Tuck

Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty surgery is done to tighten loose skin and flatten a bulging abdomen that can result from pregnancy or weight loss.  Quite often we can do the surgery under twilight sleep anesthesia to minimize the risk of complications.

Depending on the patient, tummy tuck surgery may involve liposuction, tightening of the abdominal wall muscles, removal of the loose skin and relocation of the navel.  The purpose of abdominoplasty is to produce a more youthful contour with narrowing of the waistline.  The main scar is usually hidden in the bikini area and fades with time.  Tummy tuck surgery is an outpatient procedure.  Dr. Brar only performs this surgery on patients who are at or near their normal weight; it is not a substitute for weight reduction through diet and exercise.

We could give you a lot of generic information about abdominoplasty surgery, or any other surgery that we perform; but every patient is different.  The only way to get information that pertains specifically to you is through a detailed consultation and thorough examination.  You can contact our office by phone (360-695-5754 or 503-286-5767) or email ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
