Tumescent Tummy Tuck as an Evolution of Abdominoplasty Plastic Surgery
Combining the comfort of Liposuction with the extended sculpture of Tummy Tuck, Dr. Bermant can offer this operation under Local Anesthesia with Heavy Sedation for many patients. Patients travel great distances around the world for this advantage.
Videos before and after surgery show the entire patient rotating and bending.
| Maximizing Patient Comfort Comfort starts out by preempting pain. With the Tumescent Tummy Tuck, patients are gently sleeping through the operation waking up without pain typically not needing further injections for pain medication, pain pumps, or pain medication drips. A few prescription pain pills and Tylenol seem to be enough to control the comfort of his patients. Minimizing bruising, swelling, and tissue injury, help with comfort after surgery. Dr. Bermant's patients who have traveled great distances have expressed how much they have enjoyed the regions' shopping malls, outlet stores, fine restaurants, and tourist attractions. Many patients tell us that they have combined their surgery with a vacation taking in the friendly Virginia region for their early recovery. |

Traveling for Privacy
Some patients prefer to travel for their Tumescent Tummy Tucks for privacy. Patients have told Dr. Bermant that they preferred to have surgery away from home. Their surgery was no one else's business, and they wanted to travel for their tummy tuck operation.
Initial Recovery Away from Kids and Home
Others travel for their tummy tuck surgery to be away from young children and housework during the initial healing.
Traveling With Family Member or Friend
Having someone with you can make it easier to get around and aftercare. We have nurses for those who prefer to employ local professional help.

Travel To Richmond is easy by plane, car, and train. Many fly and then rent a car or travel by taxi to shop, visit museums, and the many vacation spots nearby. Some hotels offer rates as low as $220 per week with kitchens and internet access.
