How long is tummy tuck recovery?
Tummy tuck recovery usually requires 1 to 2 weeks of downtime before you can resume work and other light, nonstrenuous activities. You should refrain from heavy lifting and vigorous activities for 6 to 8 weeks. Wearing a compression garment for 4 to 6 weeks decreases swelling and supports healing.
How much does a tummy tuck cost in Houston, TX?
The cost of a tummy tuck in and around Houston varies based on the extent of the procedure and your customized treatment plan. During your personalized consultation, we'll give you a detailed price estimate that reflects your specific plan.
Tummy tuck scars are typically low on the abdomen, running from hip to hip, and can be easily concealed by underwear or swimwear. In the first few months, scars may appear pink, brown, or slightly darker than your natural skin tone, depending on your complexion.
They often flatten and fade over time, though the final color can vary for lighter and darker skin. Dr. Carpin places incisions discreetly and recommends medical-grade products and treatments to help minimize and improve their appearance.

How long do results last?
Your tummy tuck results are long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. While the natural aging process continues, the skin and muscle improvements made during surgery are considered permanent.
