Introduction

Many people in Queens struggle with stubborn belly fat or sagging skin that doesn’t improve with diet and exercise. For women, pregnancy often stretches abdominal muscles and skin; for others, weight fluctuations or aging can create similar challenges.

At Leva Medical in Elmhurst, Queens, we often meet patients who feel self-conscious about their midsection and want a long-term solution. A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) can restore a flatter, more sculpted abdomen — but patients usually have questions about tummy tuck cost, recovery, candidacy, and risks.

This guide covers everything you need to know before considering a tummy tuck in Queens.
