MEET Dr. Brett Beber, MD, FRCS
Dr. Brett Beber, MD, FRCSC, is a board certified plastic surgeon who has been practicing in Toronto for over 18 years. Dr. Beber brings a wealth of cosmetic surgery experience to his patients, offering popular surgical procedures such as breast enhancement and body contouring.
When patients call Beber Surgery about a tummy tuck, we know they want a real solution to problems that diet and exercise haven’t fixed. A tummy tuck is different from other body contouring treatments that don’t involve surgery because it actually removes excess skin and fixes the abdominal muscles. This is what other treatments can’t match. Non surgical alternatives may help with small amounts of fat but they don’t fix loose skin or separated muscles which is what patients want to fix.
A tummy tuck is a surgery that involves a cut in the lower abdomen, removing excess skin and fat and tightening the muscles underneath. This is real surgery that requires anesthesia, cuts and time to heal but many patients think the results are so good and last so long it’s worth it. We do this surgery on people who have excess skin after weight loss, women whose bodies changed during pregnancy and people whose stomachs have changed as they’ve aged.
Many of our patients in Toronto thought non surgical treatments would work for them. They’ve tried many devices, treatments and technologies that claim to tighten skin or get rid of fat without surgery. Some of these options may help some people a little bit but they have big problems. If you have loose hanging skin or divided abdominal muscles, surgery is the only real solution. We always tell patients the truth about what can and can’t be done without surgery.
The tummy tuck surgery takes about 2-5 hours. We do it under general anesthesia so you won’t feel anything and will be asleep. We make a horizontal cut in the lower abdomen during surgery and make sure it’s hidden by underwear or swimwear. We can access the abdominal wall through this cut. We then tighten the muscles by sewing them together and remove the excess skin and fat. We also move your belly button to a more natural location in your new shaped abdomen. The end result is a flatter, firmer midsection with better lines.
Because this is surgery it will take some time and patience to heal. You should avoid heavy lifting and hard work for about 6 weeks and take at least 2 weeks off work. You may feel some pain, swelling and limited movement for the first few days but we give you pain medicine and specific care instructions to help you get through this time. Most of our patients say the recovery is manageable and worth it for the results they get. A tummy tuck smooths and tightens the abdomen by removing excess skin and repairing weakened muscles. This procedure helps achieve a more toned, contoured midsection after weight loss or pregnancy. Patients often experience renewed confidence and comfort in their appearance.
Many of our patients choose to have other procedures done at the same time as their surgical tummy tuck as part of a “Mommy Makeover”. This way patients can take care of more than one problem in one surgery and recover from everything at once instead of having to go through several separate surgeries and recovery times.
We want to make it clear that a surgical tummy tuck is not a way to lose weight. It’s for people who are at or near their ideal weight but have some area’s that don’t respond to regular procedures. We usually recommend that people wait until after they’ve lost a lot of weight or had more children before having surgery.
As long as you keep your weight stable and live a healthy life the results of a tummy tuck surgery will last forever. The skin we remove is gone for good and the muscle restoration promotes structural improvement.
We recommend you come in for a consultation if you’re thinking of getting a surgical tummy tuck in Toronto. We’ll look at your stomach, talk about your goals and help you figure out if surgery is the best option for you. We’re here to help you with everything and answer all your questions.
A mommy makeover combines multiple procedures to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy and childbirth. Each treatment plan is designed to address specific areas such as the breasts, abdomen, and waist. The result is a revitalized, more youthful figure that restores self-confidence and comfort.
