Where your tummy tuck surgery will be performed

New York City tummy tuck plastic surgeon Dr. Zevon performs both partial and complete abdominoplasties in an outpatient surgical center or an office-based facility. If you need to remain under medical supervision for several days, Dr. Zevon prefers the hospital for your stay.

Types of anesthesia

New York City tummy tuck surgeon Dr. Zevon may select general anesthesia, so you’ll sleep through the operation.

Dr. Zevon may use local anesthesia, combined with a sedative to make you drowsy. You’ll be awake but relaxed, and your abdominal region will be insensitive to pain. (However, you may feel some tugging or occasional discomfort).
