Mayo Clinic's approach

  • Collaboration. Mayo Clinic's plastic surgery team will take time to explain all your options and every aspect of your care, including cost and complications, and to address your questions and concerns. Mayo Clinic's plastic surgeons work closely with doctors from other specialties to offer patients comprehensive medical care to meet their reconstructive and cosmetic surgical needs.
  • Expertise. Your tummy tuck will be done by board-certified plastic surgeons.
  • Technology. Cosmetic surgery patients have access to the same world-class medical professionals, facilities and technology and the same level of service that is available to every Mayo Clinic patient.
