Patients at Miami Aesthetic love tummy tucks because of the dramatic change in their appearance. They routinely tell us that they love losing the heaviness, loose skin, stretch marks, and fat from their lower abdomen. Clothes fit better and patients feel more comfortable wearing certain dresses, low cut jeans, and swimsuits. Women especially love getting their figures back- including their new hourglass figure, a smoother flatter tummy, and their beautiful new belly button!
Abdominoplasties tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess skin and fat. A tummy tuck will remove stretch marks and create a flatter stomach and a tighter waist. Dr. Pazmiño has been performing abdominoplasties with beautiful results for many years. In some cases may be combined with BOTOX or breast augmentation for a total makeover.
At Miami Aesthetic, we are committed to helping you achieve your personal goals in abdominal rejuvenation. We customize each surgery to ensure patient safety and to help you return to your lifestyle and activities of daily living as soon as possible.
The Tummy Tuck Procedure At Miami Aesthetic
-Beautiful, Consistent Results
Abdominoplasty takes approximately two to four hours under general anesthesia. Dr. Pazmiño will make two incisions: one from hipbone to hipbone close to the pubic area, and another around the navel. He will separate the skin from the abdominal muscles, which are then pulled together and stitched into place for a firmer abdomen and a narrower waist. He’ll stretch the skin flap down and over the newly tightened muscles, remove excess skin, and reattach the navel in a natural position. Finally, he will close the incisions and apply sterile surgical dressings over the sutured areas.

Patients today have many effective options to rejuvenate their abdomen. Which one is right for you?
Liposuction
Patients who have excess fat but do not have excess skin are good candidates for liposuction of the abdomen. They may benefit from standard liposuction or ultrasound-assisted liposuction for more dramatic results and a quicker recovery.
Mini-Tummy Tuck
Patients with excess fat, looseness of the lower abdominal wall, and loose skin in the center of their abdomens may benefit from a mini-tummy tuck. Dr. Pazmiño uses a short incision to remove the skin. Through this limited incision, Dr. Pazmiño will tighten the muscles to help rejuvenate the abdominal wall and give you your waist back!
Standard Tummy Tuck
Patients with excess fat and skin, looseness of the abdominal muscles, and small love handles are great candidates for a standard tummy tuck. This procedure uses an incision that can be hidden under a bikini. This incision allows us to remove the excess skin and fat. Dr. Pazmiño will commonly perform liposuction at the same time to address the sides of the abdomen and contour your new tummy!
Extended Tummy Tuck
Patients who have excess fat and skin, looseness of the abdominal wall and excess tissue in the sides are excellent candidates for an extended abdominoplasty, This has a somewhat longer incision than a standard tummy tuck which allows us to remove the skin and tissue from the sides and contour your tummy beautifully.
In each case, Dr. Pazmiño works closely with the patient to help ensure that your results meet your aesthetic goals & fit your lifestyle. During surgery, Dr. Pazmiño uses specific techniques to make an internal corset to return your hourglass figure. He may also perform liposuction to beautifully contour your tummy. When we customize your surgery, we take into account the clothes you prefer to wear and your activities. Your scar can remain well-hidden- whether it is under low cut jeans, French cut panties or even a bikini!

Which Tummy Tuck Is Right For You?
Results From A Tummy Tuck
Results from the tummy tuck procedure will likely diminish if women continue to bear children or gain a great deal of weight. If you plan on becoming pregnant, we advise that you delay your abdominoplasty. Dr. Pazmiño also encourages patients who intend to lose a large amount of weight to have the surgery once they have achieved their target weight since the skin in the abdominal area typically loosens after substantial weight loss. This helps our patients achieve long-lasting results.
Customized Treatment For Optimal Cosmetic Results
We strongly feel that one of the most important parts of an abdominoplasty is the time we take to learn about your lifestyle and your aesthetic goals. This information and an in-depth clinical exam allows Dr. Pazmiño to completely customize the surgery with your goals in mind. Your activities and the clothes that you prefer to wear will help determine the design of your incisions and how your abdomen will be contoured.
Recovery After Abdominoplasty
Recovery time ranges from two weeks to a few months. Patients can expect to return to exercise and sports in four to five weeks. However, we realize that every patient is unique. Dr. Pazmiño carefully monitors the recovery of each patient and will let you know when it’s safe for you to perform any activity.
A temporary tube may be inserted to drain excess fluid from the surgical site. Information on drains and their management can be found here (PDF, Adobe Acrobat required).
Tummy Tuck Results
An abdominoplasty will leave a scar spanning the lower abdomen from hip to hip. Dr. Pazmiño works closely with each patient in selecting the design and position of the scar. He can customize the scar depending on the clothes (and bikinis!) you like to wear as well as your activities. Our patients also love their newly contoured abdomen and tighter waist. With a balanced diet and regular exercise, results are long-lasting.
Risks Of Abdominoplasty
At Miami Aesthetic, our first priority is your safety. Every patient is carefully examined and appropriate screen tests are performed before your surgery. Operative precautions are taken before, during, and after your surgery, as well. The recovery of each patient is carefully followed by Dr. Pazmiño and his staff. This helps our patients recover comfortably and consistently get the results they want. Although rare, post-operative complications from surgery are possible. They may include infection, blood clots, and poor healing, which may require further surgery. Patients who have had previous abdominal surgery should know that their old scars could be raised, stretched or generally more noticeable after the procedure. A scar revision procedure after abdominoplasty may minimize the appearance of an unsightly scar.
Mini Tummy Tuck- Partial Abdominoplasty
A mini tummy tuck is wonderful for patients who have excess fat in the center of their abdomens and some looseness of the abdominal muscles. Dr. Pazmiño uses a shorter incision to reinforce the muscles and remove the excess fat and skin. A new belly button does not need to be made. Dr. Pazmiño will often do liposuction of the abdomen, hips, and flanks at the same time to give you a beautiful result.
Belly Button Surgery- Umbilicoplasty
Patients who only want to rejuvenate their umbilicus (belly button) are candidates for this procedure. This is also popular in patients who have had a tummy tuck elsewhere and would like to improve the appearance of their belly button. Dr. Pazmiño uses several techniques to create a beautiful umbilicus (belly button). He employs a variety of suture methods, liposuction, and fat transfer, as well as techniques to hide the scar.
Revision Abdominoplasty
Patients who have had a tummy tuck in the past and have since gained weight or become pregnant are wonderful candidates for a revision abdominoplasty or tummy tuck. Dr. Pazmiño performs the entire surgery through the scars that you already have! He uses techniques such as specialized suturing methods, liposuction, ultrasonic liposuction, and direct excision to contour your abdomen to a beautiful shape.
