Lateral tension abdominoplasty can be an excellent tummy tuck solution for women who have had twins to restore the abdominal wall laxity, and regain that beautiful feeling of having a great tight tummy. But, the decision varies for every patient, and the candidates should always consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon, like Aristocrat Plastic Surgery & Medaesthetics’ expert Dr. Kevin Tehrani. Dr. Tehrani is specialized in Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty trough special training and lectures from Dr. Ted E. Lockwood, who is the pioneer of the technique.
Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty (LTA) After Delivering Twins
“Went for consult on coolsculpting/liposuction and was asked to consider being part of a laser treatment then tummy tuck operation? I am 40 yrs old non smoker no medications no stretch marks delivered twins naturally 8 yrs ago. I am also 40 pounds overweight at this time but the opportunity presented itself and really considering it although feeling so much anxiety and fear. I am a nurse myself but once you become a patient you feel like you know nothing. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very fearful of post op downtime. I’m Vvery active so have major concerns”, a RealSelf user asked.
“Dear Carly, thank you for your question and your fear of the unknown is quite common. While it’s difficult to specifically comment on you’re situation without pix or more detail, in general, especially after having twins, you would likely benefit from a lateral tension abdominoplasty. I believe in weight loss in you are not significantly overweight after abdominoplasty. In general patients loose 10-20 pounds after an LTA. Coolsculpting or liposuction would not address your abdominal wall laxity likely caused by pregnancy”, Aristocrat’s board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Kevin Tehrani said.
If you have more questions about abdominoplasty or any other cosmetic procedure, don’t hesitate to to schedule your consultation with Dr. Tehrani, one of the best plastic surgeons in New York, with offices in Long Island and Manhattan.
