Serving Plano, TX
Where Fitness Stalls,
Precision Starts
For many patients, the abdomen is the area that just won’t bounce back. Even with clean eating and regular workouts, loose skin and stretched muscles don’t always respond. Pregnancy, weight changes, or the passage of time can leave you with an abdominal area that feels out of sync with the rest of your body. That’s where a tummy tuck—or abdominoplasty—can help.
At Prosper Plastic Surgery in Plano, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Dinah Wan performs tailored tummy tuck procedures to restore core strength, remove sagging skin, and bring proportional balance to your body. Her approach is measured and patient-focused—no dramatic overcorrections, just real, natural refinement. A tummy tuck in Plano, TX, can be the missing piece for those seeking a confident return to their pre-pregnancy or pre-weight loss form.
Proof You Can’t Crunch Skin
Take a look at real results from real patients. These before-and-afters show the kind of subtle but powerful shift that can happen when form meets function. The goal isn’t to look operated on—it’s to look like yourself, with a bit more ease and confidence.
Muscles, Meet Their Comeback Tour
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is a surgical procedure that firms and flattens the abdominal area by removing extra skin and fat and reinforcing weakened or separated abdominal muscles. It’s a shape-enhancing treatment—not a substitute for weight loss.
Dr. Wan offers several variations of tummy tucks at our accredited Plano surgical facility:
In some cases, liposuction is added to refine the waist or upper abdomen. The combination of skin removal and muscle repair offers more than a visual change—it helps patients feel physically stable again.
It’s More Than Just Flat
The impact of a tummy tuck goes beyond how you look in the mirror. For many patients, it’s about comfort. Freedom. Relief. Here’s what a well-done abdominoplasty can offer:
Other benefits reported by patients:
It’s not just about removing tissue—it’s about restoring your relationship to your body.
This Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All
You might be a strong candidate for abdominoplasty if you:
During your consultation, Dr. Wan will assess your anatomy and goals to recommend the right approach—mini, full, or extended tummy tuck. Skin elasticity, fat distribution, surgical history, and muscle condition (such as diastasis recti) all play a role in determining candidacy.
The Stuff Sit-Ups Can’t Touch
Tummy tucks can address multiple concerns in one procedure:
Many patients feel like their bodies finally reflect the effort they’ve put into health and fitness. It’s a reset—not a reinvention.
We Talk Before We Tuck
Your first visit is about clarity, not commitment. Dr. Wan will examine your abdominal area, review your medical history, and ask about your goals. She’ll explain how the procedure works, what kind of tummy tuck makes the most sense for you, and how it can be combined with other procedures like breast augmentation or liposuction.
Pre-op planning includes:
We’ll also go over risks, benefits, expectations, and scar placement. It’s a full picture, so you’re never left guessing.
Surgical Precision, Scar Conscious
Tummy tuck surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia by Dr. Wan and board-certified anesthesiologists. Depending on the approach, surgery can last 2–5 hours.
Here’s what the surgical flow may include:
In a mini tummy tuck, the incision is smaller, and there’s no need to adjust the belly button or repair the full abdominal wall.
All closures are done in layers to reduce tension and minimize scarring. Dr. Wan uses long-acting local anesthetic in the surgical site to ease discomfort post-op.
Patience Now, Payoff Later
This isn’t a lunch break procedure. Recovery takes patience—but the payoff is real. Here’s what to expect:
