A toned, flat abdomen is often a sign of fitness and strength, but even men who exercise regularly may struggle with loose skin and weakened abdominal muscles. Weight changes, aging, and genetics can all contribute to an abdomen that no longer reflects your effort or desired physique. Abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, is a highly effective surgical option for restoring definition to the midsection by tightening muscles and removing excess skin and fat.
At Atwood Plastic Surgery in Little Rock, AR, Dr. Danielle Atwood offers abdominoplasty procedures tailored specifically for men. With fellowship training in aesthetic plastic surgery, she combines precision and artistry to create natural-looking, masculine results. Her approach ensures men achieve a firm, confident look while receiving compassionate care throughout the process.
What Is Abdominoplasty?
Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to contour the abdomen by removing extra skin and fat while also tightening underlying muscles. For men, this often means addressing stretched or weakened abdominal walls and trimming excess tissue for a sleeker, stronger appearance. The goal is to restore an abdomen that reflects health, vitality, and balance.
Benefits
About the Procedure
The surgery typically involves an incision placed low across the abdomen, strategically located to remain hidden beneath clothing or swimwear. Through this incision, Dr. Atwood repairs stretched or separated abdominal muscles, removes excess tissue, and reshapes the midsection. In some cases, liposuction is incorporated to further refine contours and achieve the best results.
Recovery
Recovery after abdominoplasty usually requires two to three weeks of downtime before resuming work or light activities. Some swelling and discomfort are normal in the first few weeks, and patients are advised to wear compression garments to support healing. Strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least six weeks. Full results typically appear after several months as swelling subsides and tissues settle.
