Reverse Tummy Tuck in Chicago, IL

Tummy tuck surgery (abdominoplasty) is one of the most popular plastic surgeries in the world, helping millions of individuals deal with loose skin after weight loss or pregnancy for a smoother, tighter appearance. While a traditional tummy tuck smooths out loose skin by making an incision at the waist and stretching the tissues down, a reverse tummy tuck involves making an incision just underneath the chest and pulling the skin up into a taut position. Also called upper abdominoplasty, reverse tummy tuck surgery might be ideal for Chicago, IL patients who are concerned about loose skin located in the upper abdominal area. It can also serve as a follow-up for conventional abdominoplasty if you want to maximize your results. At Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery, our talented plastic surgeons specialize in both traditional and reverse tummy tucks, allowing our patients to choose the procedure that's right for them. To learn more about upper abdominoplasty, contact our office today and set up your private consultation.

The primary difference between a traditional tummy tuck and a reverse tummy tuck is where the incision is made. For a reverse tummy tuck procedure, we'll make a single incision in the folds beneath the chest. Any extra skin will be pulled up and carefully trimmed away. Finally, we'll stitch the incision tightly together for a "lifted" appearance. Depending on your overall goals, this treatment can pair well with liposuction to remove any stubborn fat in the area. We can discuss the details of your surgery and any add-on procedures during your consultation at our Chicago, IL practice.

Regaining your old look after weight loss or pregnancy is a long and difficult journey for many, and it can be frustrating for that journey to end in loose, saggy stomach skin. In most cases, the only way to effectively eliminate loose skin is with abdominoplasty. Some of the benefits of reverse tummy tuck surgery at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery are:

  • Scars can be neatly hidden under the breasts
  • Lifts the skin to create a taut look and feel
  • Reduces wrinkles and sagging around the midsection
  • Eliminates uncomfortable chafing
  • Improves your overall proportions and figure
  • Empowers you to feel more confident in a wider variety of outfit options

Over the past two years I have worked with Dr. Schierle to achieve my postpartum 'glow up' and couldn't be more thrilled with my results. Both my chin lipo and upper bleph have left me feeling refreshed, confident and more youthful. I had both procedures in office under local anesthesia and had no issues. Not only does Dr. Schierle care about the physical result of his work but he also cares deeply about how the patient feels, which I experienced first hand during my 3 and 4 month post op appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Schierle for your plastic surgery needs- he's exceptional!

I love how I look and feel—that is obvious, that is the stuff that shows to the world. But what Dr. Schierle and Monika Cieszynski did for me was really so much more than that. I have struggled with loose skin and a large belly my whole life. What they REALLY did for me was free up space in my mind. I cannot put accurately into words what this does to a person. I am free. I have so much gratitude and appreciation. My body is strong and looks great—but my mind—what it did for my mind is quite profound.
