A tummy tuck, also known as an an abdominoplasty, is a procedure where excess skin and fat is surgically removed from one’s middle to lower abdomen. Elongated or stretched abdominal muscles are often repaired with this procedure. For anyone who seeks a more flat and better-defined abdominal area, an abdominoplasty is the right procedure for you. Ideal for patients who have concerns about large fat deposits, loose or saggy skin, or have bodies that don’t respond to healthy diet and exercise habits should strongly consider this procedure.

This patient had multiple pregnancies and due to weaker rectus muscles, she developed a ventral hernia.
Dr. BYUN performed a high lateral abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with VASER® Lipo that led to these dramatic and beautiful results. The patient’s abdomen is not stretched and Dr. BYUN restored the patient’s natural curvature.
Combining a tummy tuck with liposuction (VASER® Lipo) is a complex procedure that draws upon a plastic surgeon’s experience to get the best results. Taking too much tissue can result in necrotic tissue (dead tissue) while taking too little would have resulted in unfavorable results.
In addition to Dr. BYUN’s expertise in Vaser Lipo, Dr. BYUN performs a high lateral tension abdominoplasty. This procedure pulls the sides of the abdomen that result in an elegant curvature. Dr. BYUN’s tummy tuck technique also saves peripheral blood vessels to ensure a safe surgery.
