Male Abdominoplasty — Dr. Stein's practice on Park Avenue

Male Abdominoplasty in NYC on Park Avenue

Male Abdominoplasty

Why Abdominoplasty?

There are three layers of tissue of the abdomen; skin, fat, and fascia. When patients present to Dr. Stein’s practice concerned about the appearance of their abdomen the problem has to do with one or more of these layers. With aging and weight fluctuations, skin laxity increases leading to redundant skin. With weight gain, the thickness of the fat layer increases. With pregnancy, straining and weakened core muscles the fascia stretches leading to an abdominal bulge. During an abdominoplasty Dr. Stein will use liposuction to reduce the thickness of the fat layer, perform internal sutures (called a rectus plication) to tighten your fascia and remove the excess skin to look tight and youthful. During your consultation Dr. Stein will examine your abdomen to determine what procedures will best address your concerns.

What Can You Expect Abdominoplasty Surgery?

Whatever the issue is, Dr. Stein will examine you in detail, diagnose the problem and tell you in detail how he plans to correct it. You will have an opportunity to ask any questions you like to help you feel comfortable and confident about the process. After surgery, you will meet with Dr. Stein regularly so he can make sure your breasts are healing appropriately and that you are recovering well. Dr. Stein is well-known for his excellence in patient care and will be by your side every step of the way.

What Is the Recovery Like Abdominoplasty Surgery?

Recovery is patient specific. Most patients take Tylenol and Advil alone after surgery and are pain free after a couple days. A muscle relaxant and a stronger pain killer will be prescribed in case you need it. You can shower over your incisions 2 days after surgery and resume your normal activities shortly thereafter. You will be wearing a compressive garment over your abdomen for 1 month. Exercise can start 4 weeks after surgery once Dr. Stein confirms that your scars are healing well.

Dr. Stein was an invited author in Clinics of Plastic Surgery, where he described his technique for Abdominoplasty in male patients.

  • From my first encounter through to follow up post surgery, my experience was positive. Dr Stein’s self-confidence, kindness and professionalism put my anxieties to rest. His follow up is superb and he gives his patients his time and attention without making them feel he is in a hurry. The procedure which I had been dreading turned out to be far less traumatic than I had anticipated. I would highly recommend him!

You can tell he is a perfectionist, exactly what you’d want in your plastic surgeon. I’m so happy with my result and can’t recommend him enough!

  • I am so grateful for Dr. Stein. I had an absolutely wonderful experience with him. Not only do I look amazing, I feel happier than I ever could’ve imagined. He’s a perfectionist and his work is absolutely flawless, but more importantly he is honest and genuine.
    Andrea
  • I met Dr. Stein after moving from California a couple of years ago as I was interviewing plastic surgeons to both perform surgery as well as to administer injectables. After meeting with several other surgeons, it was an easy decision. Dr. Stein has performed surgery on both my face and breasts, and has administered injectables on several occasions throughout the last couple of years. In addition to being an excellent surgeon and having an amazing aesthetic, Dr. Stein imbues the rare qualities of honesty, ethics, compassion and kindness in addition to his surgical excellence. I could go on and on, but needless to say, I recommend him without reservation for any procedure, both on the face as well as the body. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Extremely happy with results I had from a procedure here. I am a physician and have sent many colleagues & friends here personally for the wonderful experience. Manhattan has countless plastic surgeons so it’s tough to know where to go; you will not regret coming to this office for your aesthetic/cosmetic needs.
