A Tailored Contour
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
Pregnancy, weight changes, or genetic tendencies can stretch the abdominal muscles and leave extra skin that no longer retracts on its own. A tummy tuck restores a flatter, firmer contour by tightening the abdominal wall and removing excess skin with careful attention to shape.
Dr. Herman designs each abdominoplasty around posture, muscle support, and clothing fit, serving patients from Blue Bell, Philadelphia, the Main Line, and surrounding regions.

A Flatter Abdomen with Better Support
A tummy tuck addresses changes that exercise alone cannot reverse — including stretched skin, weakened abdominal muscles, and areas of fat that remain after pregnancy or weight loss. The procedure creates a smoother, more supported midsection that looks natural both in clothing and while moving.

Dr. Herman’s Method
Planning begins with precise markings made while standing to understand how the abdominal skin moves naturally. Whenever possible, incisions are placed low so they remain concealed beneath underwear or swimwear.
Dr. Herman uses gentle tissue handling and layered closure techniques designed to produce a smoother scar and a more comfortable recovery.
“The goal is a more supported, flatter abdomen that feels comfortable in motion — not tight or artificial, but naturally restored.”
Recovery Overview
Healing & Progress
Most patients resume light activity within 10–14 days. A support garment is typically worn to guide the new contour while swelling resolves.
○
Week 1
Light walking, rest, and support garment use. Tightness and swelling are expected.
○○
Week 2
Movement becomes easier. Early results begin to show as swelling gradually lessens.
○○○
Week 3+
Most patients return to normal routines. The abdomen looks flatter and firmer, with continued improvement over several months.
