Contact UsAbout Tummy Tucks
A tummy tuck, officially called an abdominoplasty, is a popular surgical technique that is used to address excess belly fat. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Suzman offers this procedure in Westchester County, NY and Greenwich, CT to contour and slim the abdominal area by carefully removing the fat and tightening the remaining skin. This is a common procedure, often used on women who have experienced stubborn fat due to pregnancy or weight loss but are unable to remedy their belly fat from diet or exercise. Dr. Suzman can offer a specialized treatment plan for each patient at Summit Group and determine which tummy tuck method will render the best results.
Best Candidates
The best candidates for tummy tuck surgery are those in good health and who at or near their desired weight. Tummy tuck surgery should not be used as a form of weight loss, but as a means to tone the midsection after having already met your weight loss goals. Good candidates for tummy tucks are men or women who experience:
- Excessive skin around the belly button.
- A weakened abdominal wall.
- Sagging or loosened skin on the abdomen.
Tummy Tuck Reviews
I am a patient with dr Suzman for many years. Did liposuction in multiple areas. I trust him very much his staff is excellent too. My next procedure will be tummy tuck
Breast Lift No Implants, tummy lipo - I'm booked for Jan 15, 2021. I have been thinking about this breast lift since before I had children. Three children and more than three years of breastfeeding and I am really really ready now. I wear a 34D bra and hope to be a large B when this is done. I am 5' 5.5" and weigh about 140 pounds although sometimes I go down to 135. I am not sure I will get the results I want for my stomach with just lipo but I can't seem to bring myself to go for the Mimi tummy tuck. While I already have a c-section scar from my first, I don't want an even bigger one and am worried that the tuck will look unnatural. I hope I don't regret NOT doing it.
My experience has been nothing short of exceptional. He was professional and available to my needs. Checked on me often when I was home recovering and I get lots of compliments from other doctors when they see his work. Great results

Dr. Suzman is wonderful! So is his staff! He is one of the few doctors who does not make you wait either. A rarity for sure. I went in for a procedure in January. He found a ruptured implant and a Hernia. The surgey took much longer than anticipated. The results are fantastic! Could not be happier. His specialties are breast and face. Board certified and a pleasure to talk to. Again, so is his staff! Go see him. You will be ecstatic too!!

What to Expect
During the procedure, the surgeon will usually make a horizontal incision, typically between the belly button and pubic area to remove excess fat and tissue from the abdomen. The fascia, tissue beneath the skin, will be tightened and should the belly button require moving, it will be brought out through a small incision and repositioned. Excess skin will also be removed and the incision along the pubic area will be stitched. The result of this procedure is a minor scar that falls along the bikini line for easy coverage. Patients can expect the procedure to take approximately 3 hours, depending on their aesthetic goals.
Other Considerations
Following abdominoplasty, there will be some swelling and bruising around the abdomen and belly button. For the first few days following the procedure, tubes may be used to drain the incision site of any blood and fluid. Some patients may be issued an antibiotic to help prevent infection. Patients will experience some abdominal pain, which is normal, and the swelling can take 6 weeks or more to subside. It is very important that patients are careful moving around following the first few months of surgery and they will need to schedule follow up appointments at our office periodically for progress checks.
