Dr. Robyn Daugherty, double board-certified female plastic surgeon and founder of Daugherty Plastic Surgery in Baton Rouge, LA, joined eHealth Radio’s Plastic Surgery Information Channel to share her expert insight on tummy tuck surgery.

In the interview, Dr. Daugherty discusses how she determines the right age for someone to consider a tummy tuck, addressing the question of how young is too young and what age range is most appropriate. She clarifies that a tummy tuck is not a weight loss procedure but rather a contouring surgery designed to restore a smoother, flatter abdominal profile.

She also covers important aspects of recovery, from how to properly care for the surgical scar to what patients can expect during the healing timeline. For those interested in maximizing their results, Dr. Daugherty explains how liposuction can be safely combined with a tummy tuck to further refine the waistline and body shape.

With her focus on natural-looking outcomes and patient-centered care, Dr. Daugherty provides valuable information for anyone considering a tummy tuck and what it can realistically achieve.
