Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck). Our 42-year old female patient wanted abdominal contouring and breast reshaping. She also had a smoking habit of 3 cigarettes a day that Dr. Tehrani recommended quitting or cutting down on before surgery. Our patient underwent a lateral tension abdominoplasty, which is a surgical procedure using a bikini line or low incision to help improve the contour of the body, as well as a mommy makeover mastopexy (breast lift) and liposuction to remove excess fat. Postoperatively, the patient is doing very well and is quite happy with the more contoured look of her breasts. In addition to his clinical work and unrivaled dedication to his patients, he works to further the field and has presented both nationally and internationally at major medical symposia. Dr. Tehrani has been published in leading peer-reviewed scientific journals, cementing his standing as one of New York’s premier plastic surgeons.
