What to Ask During Your Tummy Tuck Consultation

Choosing to have a tummy tuck is a big decision, and your consultation is the perfect time to get the information you need. 

At Desert Hills Plastic Surgery Center in Henderson, Nevada, Dr. Hayley Brown brings years of experience as a board-certified plastic surgeon. She works closely with her husband, Dr. Steve Brown, a board-certified anesthesiologist, to provide safe care for every patient.

Your Questions Matter

A consultation is not just about hearing what the procedure involves. It is your chance to make sure you feel comfortable with your surgeon, understand realistic outcomes, and know what to expect before, during, and after surgery. 

Dr. Brown encourages her patients to ask questions and review before-and-after photos to get a clear idea of her approach and artistry.

Key Questions To Ask

When preparing for your tummy tuck consultation, it helps to have a list of questions. You might ask about:

• Safety and anesthesia: Who will administer anesthesia, and what steps will you take to make surgery as safe as possible?
• Procedure options: Which type of tummy tuck is right for my body and goals?
• Recovery timeline: How long will I need to take off from work or daily activities? When can I return to exercise?
• Aftercare: How often will I be seen for follow-up visits, and what support will I have during recovery?
• Results: Can I see before-and-after photos of patients with a body type similar to mine?

These questions give you a picture of what your surgery and recovery will involve.
