Dear Dr. Kalus,Read More Testimonials
I am just thrilled with the success of my recent liposuction. I was born with a rounded belly that only got worse as I aged. Your surgery flattened by abdomen and gave me the motivation to take better care of myself through diet and exercise.

Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Often referred to as a tummy tuck, abdominoplasty is available to South Carolina patients through Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas. Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that can significantly lessen the appearance of a protruding abdomen. The tummy tuck procedure is best suited for patients who have an abdominal fat deposit or excess skin that does not diminish with proper diet and exercise.
Abdominoplasty procedures offered at our South Carolina practice are designed to remove excess fat and skin, giving greater definition to a patient’s abs. Abdominoplasty is ideal for women who are experiencing abdominal laxity as a result of giving birth and patients who have lost a significant amount of weight and been left with excess skin. Those with excess fat who are not interested in also removing excess skin may benefit more from liposuction surgery.

The Tummy Tuck Procedure
Depending on the extent of work needed for the procedure, abdominoplasty surgery may last anywhere from two to five hours. The most common side effects of abdominoplasty include swelling, bruising, and some mild discomfort. These symptoms normally last no longer than 10 days. If you are considering abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), contact our office in Columbia, South Carolina to schedule a consultation with Dr. Kalus.
