Get Rid of Muffin Top with Tummy Nipntuck
March 28th, 2012
The Oxford English dictionary was recently updated with about 900 new words. According to the Chicago Tribune, Muffin Top is one of the new entries and it is defined as a protuberance of flesh above the waistband.
Tummy tuck surgery or abdominoplasty reduces the abdominal protrusion that is affectionately called muffin top. This Tummy Nipntuck uses liposuction, surgical skin removal, and/or muscle tightening to achieve a flatter stomach. People develop protruding abdomens due to extra skin, fat and weakened muscles. The cause is often due to pregnancy and/or fluctuations of weight and many patients turn to tummy tuck surgery to give them a more natural appearance.

Patient Comment: Tummy Nipntuck
September 14th, 2011
Teri writes:
I am now 6 months from my abdominoplasty or tummy tuck surgery last March. After losing 112 pounds, I had quite a bit of extra skin. Dr. Bashioum and his staff took care of this for me. He tightened up the ‘lazy’ muscles and tightened up the skin. It looks great!
I would recommend Dr. Bashioum to everyone. He and all of the staff did a great job!
Dr. Bashioum replies:
Thank you for your kind comments, Teri. Over 150,000 women chose tummy nipntucks in the US each year. Many patients opt for this surgery as part of the mommy make-over , while others have lost a significant amount of weight like Teri has done before considering surgery. I find that patient satisfaction is extremely high following this kind of surgery.
