This is the third installment of three videos about tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) San Francisco. The original post is here just click: Common Questions About Tummy Tucks (Abdominoplasty). This video is from my recent appearance on KRON’s Body Beautiful, with host Vicki Liviakis.

Part one includes a brief discussion of tummy tucks and abdominoplasty with before an after pictures. Here is a link to part one: Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) San Francisco Video – Part 1 of 3.

Part two includes questions from the television audience recorded live during the airing of Body Beautiful. For more specifics, click on this link: Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) San Francisco Video – Part 2 of 3.

If you are considering a tummy tuck, or any cosmetic plastic surgery, be certain your surgeon is Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. I am certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. You can check my, or any other physicians certification here: The American Board of Plastic Surgery.
