Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael A. Bogdan (http://www.drmichaelbogdan.com) has upgraded his Web site with additional features for men and women considering a tummy tuck in Dallas, Texas. With his new tummy tuck webpages, Dr. Bogdan responds to frequently asked questions and provides an animated video that morphs actual patient before and after photographs. This video segment highlights the changes that occur during the tummy tuck, so that people can get an idea of results they can achieve through this plastic surgery technique.
“On my Web site, I want to discuss my practice, my background and the procedures I perform,” says Dr. Bogdan. “But also, I want my site to be a resource for patients making important choices about plastic surgery. Abdominoplasty is a popular procedure, but many people feel that they need more information to understand the benefits and how a tummy tuck works.”
A tummy tuck can accomplish several cosmetic goals: tightening the abdominal muscles, removing excess skin, and removing unwanted fat in the midsection. The procedure may be particularly suited to the needs of women who have had multiple pregnancies or people who have lost a significant amount of weight. Unlike liposuction, a tummy tuck can address the excess skin that is frequently a major cosmetic concern.
“People considering plastic surgery in Dallas are using the Internet more frequently as a preliminary step in their decision-making process,” notes Dr. Bogdan. “I feel it’s important for surgeons to provide the content patients need, where they need it.”
Dr. Bogdan’s site provides answers to frequently asked questions such as the difference between a tummy tuck and liposuction; whether a tummy tuck can be combined with breast surgery (a procedure known as a “mommy makeover”); and when a patient can expect to go back to work. Before and after photographs and videos are also provided as a guide to the kind of results that can be achieved.
“I am very skilled in all of the tummy tuck techniques, and I have the experience to cater the procedure to each individual patient,” adds Dr. Bogdan. “My hope is that people visiting my Web site will see the images of my work, read the informational material that I provide and recognize that I have the refined approach and commitment to patient care that they want from an abdominoplasty surgeon in Dallas, Texas.”

A recent study from the ASAPS shows a significant increase in surgical and non-surgical aesthetic enhancement procedures between 1997 and 2008. One of the most popular procedures performed was the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), indicating the age-old desire for many men and women to have a flat, smooth abdomen. Unfortunately, the abdominal region is one of the toughest areas of the body to flatten and tone. Sometimes even a healthy diet and regular exercise do not yield the desired results. People considering tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) in Huntsville may wonder if plastic surgery is the right solution for their needs. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. David L. Durst has been practicing in Alabama for over twenty years and says he knows how men and women can achieve a trimmer, shapelier stomach when stubborn fat and excess skin won’t go away through traditional means.
Dr. Durst says one important factor to consider right away is that the tummy tuck is not intended as a weight loss procedure. The tummy tuck should only be considered by men and women who have tried to tone their midsections through diet and exercise but have still noticed little to no improvement. Although it is important to determine if dieting and exercise can have an effect on the shape of the abdomen prior to surgery, Dr. Durst says men and women should not feel guilty if these methods fail to work. Fat deposits that accumulate in the abdomen are often very unresponsive even for those who follow a rigorous workout regime.
One of the most qualified and highly regarded plastic surgeons in Huntsville, Dr. David Durst says tummy tuck and mini-tummy tuck procedures can give patients the flatter, smoother stomach that they’ve always wanted, and help them achieve an athletic-looking midsection. Once patients are as close to their ideal body weight as possible, Dr. Durst says a traditional tummy tuck procedure can be an excellent solution for those who have excess abdominal skin above and below the belly button. On the other hand, the mini tummy tuck may be appropriate for men and women with excess skin below the belly button but not above. In both procedures, the abdominal muscles are tightened, excess skin is removed, and, if necessary, fat deposits are suctioned away via liposuction. Because the traditional tummy tuck requires a larger incision, Dr. Durst says these patients should plan for a longer recovery time than mini tummy tuck patients.
Some men and women may be especially good candidates for the tummy tuck procedure. Those who have undergone weight loss surgery can benefit from having their abdominal muscles tightened and excess skin removed during a tummy tuck. Also, many new moms are appropriate candidates for a tummy tuck procedure to reverse some of the physical effects that pregnancy has had on their bodies.
In addition to tummy tuck surgery, Dr. Durst also offers a range of other procedures – such as breast enhancement, facial rejuvenation, and laser skin treatments – that are designed to help women and men achieve the look they want and feel better about their appearance.
