Amazing experience!  I had a breast reduction and tummy tuck with Dr. Steele.  I'm in my early 50's and can't believe I waited so long.  My abdomen and waist looks incredible.  My breasts also look amazing but my back and neck no longer hurt and bother me like they have for they last 20-30 years.  Highly recommend and his staff is so helpful and attentive.  Would give 10 stars if I could.  Thanks Dr. Steele!

I should have done this a while ago . Sorry Dr.Steele ! Dr.Steele and his team are great to work with . I went through a double mastectomy and then after my first reconstructive surgery had to leave my surgeon due to she was verbally abusive  and more concerned about her own ego than her patient . I am a nurse so I know good drs when I see one and that is getting rare . Dr.Steele is one of the good ones and helped me with second reconstruction . This was a traumatic for me and Dr.Steele and his wife and whole team helped me through more than they will ever know . I read someone wrote he doesn’t call to check on you that’s is a lie I had a previous cosmetic surgery from him and both times he called personally to check on my pain .  Thank you Dr.Steele and your team !

Breast Lift & Augmentation - Dr. Steele is a fantastic doctor. I had always felt uncomfortable and nervous going into such a procedure, but Dr. Steele and Tyler were absolutely amazing. Dr. Steele took the time to answer every question I had about the procedure and the healing process, which really helped ease my nerves. They also provided clear, easy-to-follow written instructions for both before and after the procedure. I felt informed, supported, and truly well cared for throughout the entire experience. Dr. Steele did an amazing job, and I love my results!!

Is your waistline losing definition, and do you feel that your diet and exercise routines are having no impact? Do you increasingly feel like your abdomen does not match the rest of your body? Are you tired of always having to wear shapewear to create the appearance of a flat torso?

Many people feel increasingly dissatisfied with their waistlines as they age, especially after significant weight loss or pregnancy. A bulging abdomen can make you look like you are slouching and out of shape. Fortunately, patients in Mansfield, TX can get a tummy tuck from Dr. Matthew H. Steele, a Board-certified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience with patients looking for body contouring solutions.

What Is a Tummy Tuck?

The technical term for a tummy tuck is an abdominoplasty, and it is a procedure designed to remove excess abdominal skin and repair bulging or laxity of the abdominal wall muscles. It is frequently combined with liposuction to optimize the final contours. Tummy tucks come in three major varieties:

1. A mini tummy tuck is suitable for patients without significant abdominal wall laxity with minimal loose skin in the lower abdomen.  It is frequently combined with liposuction of the abdomen to reduce the amount of fat and with Renuvion (add trademark if needed) to optimize skin contraction.
2. A full abdominoplasty is necessary for most patients in order to address the abdominal wall laxity (rectus diastasis) caused by pregnancy and weight changes. Additionally, this procedure is necessary for those patients with extensive skin laxity.
3. A 360-degree abdominoplasty or body lift may be necessary for patients after massive weight loss to address the skin laxity that continues laterally and posteriorly around to the low back. With significant weight loss, a traditional abdominoplasty that address only the anterior aspect of the body will leave “dog ears” of loose skin on the sides that require a longer excision to fully address.

During a tummy tuck procedure, Dr. Steele will make an incision low on your abdomen, just above the pubic area.  The skin of the abdomen is elevated off of your abdominal muscles allowing exposure for these muscles to be repaired, correcting the rectus diastasis. Excess skin is then measured and excised, leaving you a flatter, tighter abdomen. The degree of skin excess that is removed will ultimately dictate the final length of your incision.

A tummy tuck carries the same risks as any major surgery, such as anesthesia risks, bleeding, slow healing, and infection. You will have activity restrictions for up to 2 months but can resume light activity and desk work after 10-14 days.

What Are the Contraindications to Getting a Tummy Tuck?

Ideal tummy tuck patients in Mansfield are close to their goal weight and do not plan on further pregnancies. Pregnancy and weight gain/loss will negatively affect your final results. Since a tummy tuck is a major elective surgery, you should be healthy, refrain from smoking, and have no preexisting conditions that might negatively impact your odds of a smooth recovery.
