Tummy Tuck for Men

This 34-year-old New York-area man was 5 feet 9 inches tall and 178 pounds. He had lost weight through diet and exercise but was disappointed to find that he was left with excess loose skin that he couldn't hide, even while dressed. He came to us interested in getting a tummy tuck in NYC. The real trick in performing a tummy tuck for men is understanding that the scar needs to be placed a bit differently than for a woman. In men, the scar tends to be a little lower on the sides and higher in the middle.
