About this treatment
Abdominoplasty at Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery is designed for patients who have excess abdominal skin, stretched or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), or persistent lower abdominal fullness that has not responded to diet and exercise — concerns frequently arising after pregnancy, significant weight loss, or body composition changes over time.
Dr. Paul Vitenas offers three tummy tuck options to match varying degrees of correction needed. The full abdominoplasty is the most comprehensive approach: an incision is created along the lower abdomen (positioned to fall within a standard bikini line), excess skin is excised, the underlying rectus abdominis muscles are tightened with permanent internal sutures to close the diastasis, the navel is repositioned through a new opening, and the remaining…
The mini tummy tuck targets only the area below the navel using a shorter incision. It does not require navel repositioning and is suited to patients with mild lower abdominal laxity whose upper abdomen is firm and does not require correction.
Starting from $8,000 all-inclusive (surgeon, anesthesia, OR, follow-up). Includes full abdominoplasty, mini tummy tuck, and Lipotuck (combined liposuction + tummy tuck) options.
