The Work Has Been Done. The Body Just Has Not Caught Up.

Loose abdominal skin after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging that does not respond to diet or exercise. Muscle separation that leaves the stomach looking stretched or bulging even with consistent workouts.

Frustration with clothing fit, visible fullness through the midsection, and not seeing the body reflect the effort already put in.

The goal: a flatter, tighter midsection that matches the work already being done.

Many patients describe wanting a stomach that finally looks the way it should after pregnancy, weight loss, or years of consistent effort. Clothes that fit without adjusting. A shape that feels proportional and confident.

A Tummy Tuck Built Around Each Patient's Goals

A tummy tuck is not one-size-fits-all. Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin evaluate skin laxity, muscle separation, fat distribution, and overall proportions to recommend the right surgical plan for each patient. Whether the goal is post-pregnancy tightening, skin removal after weight loss, or a flatter waistline with added liposuction, the result should look natural and fit the body.

  • Excess skin removal and abdominal contouring
  • Diastasis recti (muscle separation) repair when needed
  • Customized incision placement below the bikini line
  • Option to combine with liposuction for enhanced waistline definition

Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin customize every plan based on the patient's skin laxity, muscle separation, and the result being sought.

"I'm in my 30's with no kids, struggling with weight since I was a teenager. My weight fluctuating over the years caused me to have a pouch and impacted my self-esteem. It's only been 3 weeks but my body has transformed and my self-confidence has increased. The recovery has been really easy.

Tummy Tuck FAQs

A tummy tuck leaves a permanent scar, but it is placed low on the abdomen, below the bikini line, so it stays hidden even in a swimsuit. Dr. Truong and Dr. Lin carefully position the incision and use precise closure techniques to minimize scarring. The scar will fade significantly over time, and we offer scar creams and treatments to help further improve its appearance during recovery. Individual results may vary.
Most patients rate discomfort around a 6 or 7 out of 10 during the first week, dropping to a 3 or 4 by the second week. The sensation is often described as a deep, tight pulling in the core, similar to soreness after an intense abdominal workout. Our practice uses a long-acting anesthetic during surgery that provides relief for up to 72 hours, along with a combination of prescription pain relievers and over-the-counter anti-inflammatories for the first 7 to 10 days. A compression garment is also provided to support the abdominal wall and reduce swelling.
Most patients will need drains following a tummy tuck. Drains are temporary tubes placed during surgery to remove excess fluid that can build up under the skin. In most cases, drains are removed easily in the office after 5 to 7 days. Patients receive clear instructions on how to care for, clean, and empty drains during recovery.
A tummy tuck provides permanent results. The excess skin is physically removed and the underlying abdominal muscles are surgically tightened, so those changes are lasting. Maintaining a stable weight is the most critical factor in preserving results. Significant weight gain can stretch the remaining skin, and pregnancy can re-separate the repaired muscles. Most patients find that staying within 10 to 15 pounds of post-operative weight keeps results looking great for a lifetime. Individual results may vary.
Plan to take at least 1 week off from work, with 10 to 14 days being ideal for a comfortable recovery. A compression garment is worn to promote blood flow and reduce swelling. Some soreness around the incision and discomfort in the abdominal area is normal during the first week. General timeline: Week 1 is rest at home and the first post-operative visit. Weeks 1 to 2, most patients return to desk work. Weeks 4 to 6, light activity and walking resume. Weeks 8 to 12, gradual return to full exercise. Coordinators are available by call or text throughout recovery.
A tummy tuck at Chicago Breast & Body Aesthetics typically ranges from $12,995 to $16,995* or more, depending on the complexity of the case and the technique used. All pricing is all-inclusive with no hidden fees. Flexible financing is available through CareCredit, Cherry, and Alphaeon to fit almost any budget. Contact us for a complimentary consultation to receive a personalized quote.
A tummy tuck is not a weight-loss procedure, and patients should be at or near their goal weight before surgery. However, if stubborn subcutaneous fat around the abdomen persists despite diet and exercise, the surgeon can include liposuction during the tummy tuck to further slim and contour the midsection. Many patients find that the improved body contour motivates a healthier lifestyle long-term. Individual results may vary.
