Restore Strength, Shape & Confidence
Whether from pregnancy, weight loss, or aging, the abdominal area can lose its natural tone — leading to loose skin, separated muscles, and stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. A Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is a transformative procedure that flattens the abdomen, restores core strength, and removes excess skin and fat for a smoother, firmer midsection.
At Toronto Dermaplastic Surgery, Dr. Reza Ahmadzadeh performs tummy tucks with expert technique and a refined eye for proportion — helping you feel strong, confident, and comfortable in your body again.

Dr. Ahmadzadeh will recommend the most appropriate approach based on your anatomy, goals, and amount of skin laxity:
- Full Tummy Tuck – Addresses the full abdominal area (above and below the belly button), tightens muscles, and removes excess skin
- Mini Tummy Tuck – Focuses on the lower abdomen only; ideal for mild skin laxity and no muscle separation
- Extended Tummy Tuck – Removes excess skin and fat from the flanks and sides as well as the abdomen
- Tummy Tuck with Liposuction – Combines fat removal and sculpting for enhanced definition
- Consultation: In-depth discussion of your abdominal concerns, body goals, and surgical options
- Surgery Time: 2–4 hours, depending on technique and combined procedures
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility
- Recovery Timeline:
- Initial rest for 1–2 weeks; walking encouraged early for circulation
- Return to light work in 2–3 weeks
- Compression garment worn for 4–6 weeks
- Final results visible in 2–3 months as swelling resolves
- Scarring: Incision is placed low along the bikini line and fades over time
Will a tummy tuck help me lose weight?
No — it’s a body contouring procedure, not a weight-loss method. Ideal candidates are near their target weight.
Can I combine a tummy tuck with other procedures?
Yes — many patients combine it with a breast lift, liposuction, or as part of a mommy makeover.
Will my abdominal muscles be tightened?
Yes, if needed. Diastasis recti (muscle separation) is repaired during surgery to restore core strength and tone.
Whether you’re rebuilding your core after motherhood or refining your shape after weight loss, a tummy tuck can be a powerful step in reconnecting with your confidence and comfort. With an expert, compassionate approach, Dr. Reza Ahmadzadeh helps you reclaim your body with strength, beauty, and balance.
