Whether due to age, weight changes, or past surgeries, many people—both men and women—find that their abdomen isn’t as firm or toned as it once was. If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your midsection, a tummy tuck offers a transformative solution to restore a flatter, more contoured look. Zaleta Med Spa & our talented team are here to help you feel confident in your body again.
What is a Tummy Tuck?
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and stretch marks from the lower abdomen while also tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. The result is a flatter, smoother midsection—especially helpful for those whose skin has stretched due to pregnancy or significant weight loss.
For many women, especially after multiple pregnancies, the lower and mid-abdominal area can become difficult to tone.
This is often due to stretched connective tissue that doesn’t respond to exercise alone.
Others may experience loose, sagging skin and stretch marks after substantial weight loss. In these cases, the skin has lost its elasticity and cannot conform to the body’s new shape. Removing this excess skin can help restore a firmer, more youthful-looking abdomen.
Some individuals also have noticeable scars or bulges from previous surgeries such as hysterectomies or c-sections. A tummy tuck can address these concerns, making it an excellent solution for a variety of abdominal issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a tummy tuck cost?
This will depend on various factors, including the type of tummy tuck that interests you, your BMI and how much skin needs to be removed. To get an accurate estimate for your costs, schedule a consultation with Dr. Pack.
What are the scars like after a tummy tuck?
This depends on how yours needs to be performed. No matter what, there will be scarring. In most cases, it is low enough on the abdomen that the majority of swimsuits and underwear can hide it.
Do I have to get muscle repair with my tummy tuck?
It is not a requirement but in most cases it is necessary to get the flat tummy look. If your muscles are taut, you may only need liposuction and skin removal. No matter your situation, we work with you to deliver exactly what you need.
