Tummy Tuck Des Moines
At Heartland Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Des Moines, tummy tuck surgery is performed by Eugene J. Cherny, M.D., F.A.C.S. Board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), Dr. Cherny offers patients a thorough selection of body contouring procedures.
What is a tummy tuck?
Tummy tuck surgery (“abdominoplasty”) is a procedure which firms and smoothes the abdomen to create a slimmer appearance. Good candidates for tummy tuck surgery are women or men whose:
- Skin is loose and hanging on the midsection
- Stomach muscles are weakened due to aging or pregnancy
- Fat is concentrated in the abdominal area
- Weight is still within their normal range
Our Des Moines cosmetic surgery expert, Dr. Cherny, can remove excess skin and fat on the midsection and tighten the stomach muscles to reveal a more flattering abdominal profile.
At Heartland Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, our Des Moines plastic surgeon can perform this procedure through the “mini-abdominoplasty,” or by the extended or circumferential methods. Depending upon your needs, he can help you decide which of these is right for you.

Because tummy tuck surgery is a major operative procedure, it is important for candidates to be fully informed before proceeding. Fortunately, Dr. Cherny regularly holds open house seminars at Heartland Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Additionally, he encourages prospective patients to schedule an initial consultation at his office.
