Which Tummy Tuck Is Best For You

As one of the top Orange County tummy tuck surgeons, Dr. Joseph T. Cruise has Orange County Tummy Tuckperformed hundreds of abdominoplasty procedures ranging from mini, standard, extended and circumferential. In recent years, the mini and standard tummy tucks have been the most commonly performed by plastic surgeons.

Cruise set out to change the way patients viewed tummy tuck procedures. He now provides a 3-D evaluation and detailed outline of how the entire body will look with each tummy tuck option.

The ultimate goal is to perform the tummy tuck procedure that will yield the highest return for the patient,” express Joseph T Cruise, MD.
