Tummy Tuck: Precision Body Contouring for Lasting Results
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat and skin while tightening weakened abdominal muscles to create a firmer, smoother midsection.
It’s often considered by individuals dealing with loose skin due to aging, weight loss, pregnancy, or prior surgeries.
Types of Tummy Tucks
- Mini Tummy Tuck: Removes excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen without muscle repair.
- Full Tummy Tuck: Removes excess tissue and tightens abdominal muscles for a more contoured shape. Liposuction may be included for additional sculpting.
Procedure Details
The procedure typically takes 2-4 hours under general anesthesia. A horizontal incision is made above the pubic area, with the length depending on the amount of correction needed.
Recovery and Results
Patients generally resume daily activities in 1-2 weeks, with strenuous activity restricted for 6-8 weeks. Swelling and mild pain are expected during the recovery period, managed with medications. Though results are long-lasting, substantial weight fluctuations or future pregnancies may affect the outcome.
Scar Maturity
Scars from the tummy tuck may take 1-2 years to mature, gradually fading over time.
Ideal candidates
- Individuals with Excess Abdominal Skin: Those with loose or sagging skin from weight loss, aging, or pregnancy.
- Good General Health: Patients should be in good health, without medical conditions that could impair healing.
- Stable Weight: Candidates should be near their goal weight, as significant weight fluctuations can affect results.

Results That Speak for Themselves
Mohs surgery on my back R shoulder.....removed 6cmLX6cmWX1.5cmD piece of tissue which was skin cancer. Scar was very neat, thin suture line which healed to a thin silvery line. Very please w outcome.
I had my surgery done in January 2022 and I realized I never provided a review. Dr. Kusuma is an amazingly talented surgeon. He did an eye lift, neck and face lift for me. I was under local anesthetic and never felt ANYTHING. No pain, ever. The results were fantastic. Before and after photos are, according to other people jaw dropping. I’m very happy with the results and can tell anyone considering doing this work with Dr. Kusuma to Go For It!! You will be so happy you did. Thank Dr. Kusuma.
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Kusuma, not only they are super professional but the kindness they treat their patients with makes the process a lot more pleasant. Definitely the only plastic surgeon I would go to, zero doubt! Thanks to the entire team for the patience and kindness, you all are amazing!
Dr K and his entire staff were so welcoming and answered all my questions prior to surgery. After the surgery, Dr. K checked up on me to make sure I was ok. So far, I’m loving my progress and can’t wait to see the final results of my eyes and partial face lift. I highly recommend Dr. K to anyone who is looking for a great Plastic Surgeon!!!
Simply amazing!!! Don't look any further for a plastic surgeon. You have found the absolute best in Dr. Kusuma and his staff. I had a lower face and neck lift w/ fat grafting to the face. Like most people I was pretty nervous about getting this done. I practiced due diligence by visiting other doctors and interviewing them before deciding on Dr. Kusuma. I knew the minute that I met him that he was my doctor. He's extremely knowledgable, experienced and a master of artistry. He's kind, compassionate and genuinely cares about meeting the needs of his patients. And as for the outcome...Omg!! I can't even believe the results. He was able to erase 10-15 years of aging all inside of a 5-6 hour surgery. I'm so happy that I made the decision to have this done but even happier that I chose Dr. Kusuma to perform my surgery!!
When I first met Dr. Kusuma I immediately felt confidence in him, he was my first consultation and only choice.Dr. Kusuma performed a breast lift with an implant, an area of lipo and a brachioplasti/arm lift a week ago. He is professional, extremely knowledgeable, caring and very responsive. He communicated with me through the process of selecting my procedures, healing and always made himself available when I needed him. His office uses an app to communicate and WOW he truly is on top of responding when communicated.On the day of the procedure, Maria, Maureen, and Jackie made me feel comfortable and safe. The team at Suria is the best.The healing process has just begun and I can’t wait to see the final results.I would definitely recommend Dr. Kusuma.
Every time I go to Suria I have the best experience. Whether it’s an appointment with Dr. Kusuma, Tania, or anyone on their staff, everyone is great and makes you feel extremely comfortable! They take their time with you in each appointment and really make the experience great overall. Their facilities are extra clean, modern, and beautiful. I’ve had nothing but amazing results and will continue to go to Suria for many more years to come!! Highly highly recommend.

I've had facials before but never like this one... I had a Hydrafacial, Microdermabrasion and extractions with Tania. The most amazing experience. My skin never looked or felt sooooo great after. I did not think it was possible for my skin to react to a facial so well! You must be the very top of the line! I'm going to shoot for once a month to keep it looking so well. TY again so much Tania!
Aileen brought me in to do a facial with Tania and i can say that my skin has never been better! It was such an amazing experience and i can’t wait to go back !
If you want the BEST hydrafacial experience , this is where to go. This was the most INCREDIBLE facial I’ve ever had in 40 yrs! She’s friendly, knowledgeable, passionate and took her time to educate on the best care for my skin! She truly cares about her patients and it shows on her work. Hands down the only place I’ll ever go to!!!
This is the best place ever I had a neck surgery with and I can’t be more please . This staff and surgeon are amazing he brings peace when he talks to you. He explains everything and so do the ladies in his office. I trust this doctor 100% . What a joy it was to do my surgery with them. I’m still all wrapped up but I feel great already . I’ll update more later.
