Tummy Tuck in Pembroke Pines

If you’re looking to sculpt and refine your midsection, both liposuction and a tummy tuck in Pembroke Pines can help—but they target different concerns. Understanding the difference between the two can help you determine which procedure is best for you.

• Liposuction removes stubborn fat but does not tighten skin or repair muscle separation. It’s ideal for clients with good skin elasticity who simply need fat reduction.
• A tummy tuck removes excess fat, strengthens abdominal muscles, and reshapes the entire midsection. This makes it the preferred option for post-pregnancy changes, weight loss transformations, or significant skin laxity.

For many clients, the best approach is to combine these 2 treatments. Dr. Salas often integrates liposuction with tummy tuck to refine contours, and take your tummy tuck to the next level.

Absolutely—though it depends on their location. A tummy tuck removes excess skin from the lower abdomen, meaning stretch marks below the belly button are often completely eliminated. For those above the belly button, they won’t disappear entirely, but they’ll move lower on the abdomen, making them far less noticeable.

If reducing stretch marks is important to you, Dr. Salas takes an artistic, detail-oriented approach to maximizing skin removal. He does this to enhance your natural curvature. With a tummy tuck in Pembroke Pines, our goal is to give you results that renew your confidence and give you something to feel excited about.
