Tummy Tuck
Aging, pregnancy, and weight changes can all contribute to excess fat and sagging skin around the midsection.
When diet and exercise won't eliminate these issues, a tummy tuck – or abdominoplasty – can strengthen, tighten, and smooth the abdomen.
Board-certified plastic surgeon Stephanie Peng performs tummy tuck surgery in Minnetonka, MN, to restore your confidence and appearance.
What Can a Tummy Tuck Do for Me?
A tummy tuck is the most effective and long-lasting way to eliminate resistant fat and excess skin from the abdominal area.
If you maintain a healthy diet and stay active, you can expect the results of abdominoplasty to last for many years to come.
If you are self-conscious about the appearance of your abdomen due to excess skin and stubborn fat, a tummy tuck can help you feel confident and attractive.
Dr. Peng wants you to understand that abdominoplasty, like liposuction, is an enhancement procedure and is not intended as a weight loss tool. Patients should be near their goal weight and committed to living a healthy lifestyle. She will perform an in-depth evaluation to determine if a tummy tuck is the right solution for you.

This simplified explanation of abdominoplasty illustrates how the procedure can refine your abdomen.
Patients throughout Minnetonka and the greater Minneapolis, MN, area trust Dr. Peng to help them achieve their cosmetic goals.

Financing Your Tummy Tuck Surgery
Tummy tuck surgery starts at $7,000 and can cost as much as $15,000. Here are some answers to frequently asked questions regarding the cost of abdominoplasty:
What Factors Affect the Cost of Treatment?
The most important factors are the extent of your treatment and the experience of your plastic surgeon. Choosing a board-certified surgeon like Dr. Peng can help you experience the best returns on your investment.
Does Insurance Cover Abdominoplasty?
In most cases, the answer is "no." This is because a tummy tuck, like breast augmentation, is considered purely cosmetic. However, there are cases in which chafing or other effects of excessive stretched skin might qualify for coverage of a minimal extent of tissue removal.
Do You Offer Flexible Financing Options?
Our practice, serving Minnetonka and Minneapolis, MN, works with CareCredit®. This third-party financing option allows you to pay for treatment in affordable, low-interest monthly installments.
