What are the risks involved with having a tummy tuck?
Every surgery comes with its own specific risks and outcomes. These may involve swelling or wound healing issues. It is the surgeons responsibility to design a safe, low risk, highly effective surgery for you. It is the patients responsibility to follow the post-operative instructions, avoid smoking and limit vigorous activities immediately after surgery. Dr. Houser will discuss all of the common risks associated with a tummy tuck either at the time of the initial consultation or during your pre-operative visit.
