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 come to Beber Surgery to ask about belly surgery, they’re usually talking about a procedure that can help them with problems in their tummy area. Tummy surgery can help with loose skin after weight loss, after pregnancy or just because of aging. Sometimes diet and exercise just can’t do the job. Abdominoplasty is the medical term for this procedure, but most patients just call it belly surgery or a tummy tuck.
Over the years we’ve helped many people who’ve done everything to make their midsection look better. They’ve done thousands of crunches, followed strict diets and worked with personal trainers but still have too much skin or a tummy that sticks out. The truth is the body can’t always fix these problems on its own if the skin has been stretched too far or the abdominal muscles have split. That’s when belly surgery is needed.
The surgery involves removing excess skin and fat from the tummy area and strengthening the muscles underneath at the same time. We make a horizontal cut across the lower abdomen after surgery. This cut is placed so it will be hidden by your underwear or swimwear. We take out the excess skin and fat through this cut and we also fix any abdominal muscles that have come apart or become weak. This muscle regeneration is really important because it makes your waistline look firmer and flatter which makes you look more toned. We see many different kinds of people in our Toronto office who want belly surgery. Many are mothers who want to deal with the changes in their body that happened during and after pregnancy. Your abdominal muscles can separate when you’re pregnant to make room for the baby. Sometimes though, they don’t come back together on their own. That’s why belly surgery is a big part of a Mommy Makeover. It helps women get their body back to how it was before they got pregnant. We also help those who have lost a lot of weight and are left with loose, sagging skin that hangs down and makes them feel bad physically and emotionally.
The procedure takes between 2-5 hours but can take longer if more work needs to be done. Most patients go home the same day but some may want to stay overnight. It does take time and effort to get well. If your work requires you to move around a lot, you may need to take more than 2 weeks off. After surgery the first few days may be painful, swollen and bruised. We give you pain medicine to help with this. Most patients can move slowly after a day or two which really helps them recover.
We always tell patients that belly surgery is not a way to lose weight. People who are currently at or near their desired weight but have certain problem areas that don’t respond to established techniques are our target market. We suggest you be at a steady weight before surgery because gaining or losing a lot of weight after surgery can change your results.
The results of belly surgery are supposed to last long and may even last forever if you keep a healthy weight and lifestyle. We have patients come back years later to tell us how the treatment improved their lives and gave them confidence they hadn’t felt in years.
