Overview
Tummy Tuck in West Palm Beach
Abdominoplasty goes far beyond diet and exercise — it corrects the muscle separation and excess skin that no amount of training can address. The result is a genuinely transformed abdomen: flat, toned, and naturally contoured.
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) removes excess abdominal skin and fat while tightening the underlying muscles — including the separated abdominal wall (diastasis recti) commonly caused by pregnancy. Dr. Kapp contours the entire midsection, repositioning the belly button for a completely natural appearance.

Am I a Candidate?
Ideal candidates are healthy adults at a stable weight who are dissatisfied with excess abdominal skin or a protruding stomach. Particularly beneficial for post-pregnancy patients. Those planning future pregnancies or significant weight loss should wait, as these events significantly impact results.
The Procedure
Performed under general anesthesia in two to five hours. A hip-to-hip incision is placed low enough to be concealed by swimwear. Dr. Kapp removes excess tissue, repairs the underlying muscle wall, re-contours the abdominal tissue, and repositions the navel before closing with fine sutures.
Recovery & Results
Most patients rest at home for the first two to three days, returning to desk work in three to four weeks. A compression garment supports healing. Bruising, swelling, tightness, and soreness are expected and resolve progressively. Full results are visible around three months.
