Corset Tummy Tuck in Fall River, MA

A cinched, narrow waist is a highly sought-after but difficult-to-achieve ideal for many women. The iconic “Barbie” hip-to-waist ratio is something that many women try to emulate, but for many, genetics and their natural frame make it impossible. A corset tummy tuck makes these dreams a reality.

What Is a Corset Tummy Tuck?

A corset tummy tuck, sometimes called an internal corset abdominoplasty, is a body contouring procedure that tightens the front and sides of the abdomen for a cinched, hourglass shape. Unlike a traditional tummy tuck, which tightens the rectus muscle (front of the abdomen) only, the corset tummy tuck tightens both the rectus muscle and the obliques, bringing the sides in for a more pronounced contour.

What Can a Corset Tummy Tuck Accomplish?

The goal of a corset tummy tuck is to achieve that extra cinched waist beyond what a traditional tummy tuck can accomplish. The following are the benefits of the corset tummy tuck:

Eliminated loose skin
Reduced pockets of fat
Slimmed midsection and upper and lower back
A 360 tightening of the waist and abdominal muscles
Corrects diastasis recti
Cinches the waist after pregnancy, hormonal changes, and weight loss

Am I a Candidate for a Corset Tummy Tuck?

If you’ve always wanted an hourglass figure but couldn’t achieve the look with diet and exercise alone, a corset tummy tuck may be for you. Candidates for a corset tummy tuck may be close to their ideal weight but have a naturally boxy frame. This procedure is also beneficial for women who are experiencing changes to their body type, as pregnancy can stretch the abdomen and ribs, causing a less defined waist. Ideal corset tummy tuck candidates:

Are nonsmokers or are willing to quit
Are in good overall health
Desire a slimmed, cinched waist
Have realistic expectations for results

How Is a Corset Tummy Tuck Performed?

A corset tummy tuck is performed as an outpatient procedure using general anesthesia. During this procedure, Dr. Tolomeo contours the midsection to create a tightened waistline, similar to how a corset cinches the waist. Dr. Tolomeo will create a customized surgical plan that incorporates your specific needs and requirements, but a general corset tummy tuck procedure may look like the following:

Dr. Tolomeo begins by performing high-definition liposuction throughout the upper and lower back, as well as the abdomen. This helps to smooth these adjacent areas for a more cohesive, natural-looking slope from the back to the waist.
He will then make a small incision low on the abdomen, near the bikini line.
Through this incision, he will surgically tighten the rectus muscle as well as the oblique muscles using internal sutures. This tightens the waist and flattens the front of the abdomen.
Dr. Tolomeo will also remove excess skin and relocate the belly button if necessary. Once he redrapes the skin for a natural appearance, he will neatly close the incisions with sutures.

Can a Corset Tummy Tuck Be Combined With Other Cosmetic Procedures?

Absolutely. A corset tummy tuck is an excellent addition to a Mommy Makeover—by adding a breast enhancement procedure such as a breast augmentation with lift, you can increase the size of your breasts and eliminate breast sagging for a complete rejuvenation.

What Is Corset Tummy Tuck Recovery Like?

Recovery from a corset tummy tuck is no different than recovery from a traditional tummy tuck, with no additional pain or discomfort. You will be given a compression garment, which helps to reduce swelling, aid the skin as it retracts, and keep the body’s shape. Dr. Tolomeo will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, which may include the following:

Limit physical activity, including exercise for at least six weeks
Wear your compression garments as directed
Incorporate light walking as soon as possible to aid in healing and reduce the risk of blood clots

Always call Dr. Tolomeo’s office if you have any questions or concerns throughout your recovery process, especially regarding integrating new activities into your routine.

What Results Can I Expect From My Corset Tummy Tuck?

A corset tummy tuck takes waist snatching to another level. Once you are healed, your waistline will be noticeably smaller, with a more striking difference between your hips and waist, creating that idealized hourglass figure. With continued care, including a healthy diet and exercise regimen, your new frame will be sure to wow.

Frequently Asked Questions About Corset Tummy Tucks

How much does a corset tummy tuck cost in Massachusetts?

The cost of a corset tummy tuck in Massachusetts will vary depending on the amount of necessary revision, the technique used, and if you have combined your procedure with any others. Once you have your consultation with Dr. Tolomeo and he creates a surgical plan for you, he will be happy to provide you with an accurate cost estimate.
Will my corset tummy tuck results be permanent?

The results of your corset tummy tuck are intended to be long-lasting through the use of internal sutures to cinch the waist. However, changes to the body are always possible, including weight gain, hormonal changes, and pregnancies, which can all affect your results. To ensure a long-lasting corset tummy tuck, we recommend that you maintain a healthy lifestyle and limit weight fluctuations as much as possible.
What if I get pregnant after my corset tummy tuck?

Because pregnancy can cause the abdominal muscles to expand and then prove difficult to retract, getting pregnant after your corset tummy tuck is likely to reverse your results. For this reason, we recommend that you only undergo this procedure once you are confident that you are finished having children to avoid the risk of needing a secondary procedure.
Is a corset tummy tuck more painful than a traditional tummy tuck?

No. The corset tummy tuck is no more painful than a traditional tummy tuck. It also does not require a longer or more difficult recovery when performed alone.
