As mentioned in the previous post, Common Questions About Tummy Tucks (Abdominoplasty), I recently had the chance to discuss Tummy Tucks, San Francisco, on KRON‘s Body Beautiful, with host Vicki Liviakis. It was a half hour live show, with information on the tummy tuck, before and after pictures, and viewer question and answer.

I have divided the show into three, ten minute segments, the first of which is included here. The 800 number on the video was for the live show, to contact my office for a consultation appointment, call (925) 943-6353.

If you have any questions about tummy tucks, abdominoplasty, mini-abdominoplasty, liposuction or any cosmetic plastic surgery procedures, please call the office or use the contact form on this page. I will respond personally to your email. More common questions will likely appear here, as future blog entries.

This video includes two segments, The first segment covers:

• Who is a good candidate for abdominoplasty?
• What does a tummy tuck fix?

The second segment discusses:

• Overnight stay after a tummy tuck.
• Before and after pictures of several abdominoplasty patients after pregnancy and bariatic surgery and massive weight loss
• How the muscle and skin are tightened.

More general information on the procedure can be found by on this blog by clicking on the Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) link under Categories (to the left), or click here to get to the abdominoplasty page on my main web site: DrMele.com. Even Wikipedia has an Abdominoplasty page.
