Body Contouring by Dr. Remus Repta

Plus Size Tummy Tuck in Scottsdale

Body Contouring Pioneer
Creator of the Plus Size Tummy Tuck®. Co-author of Atlas of Abdominoplasty. Innovator of groundbreaking surgical procedures to help plus-size patients achieve amazing body contouring results safely.

Signature Procedure The Plus Size Tummy Tuck®
Dr. Repta does not have a BMI requirement for his patients. As many of you who are visiting us here know, most plastic surgeons have a BMI cut-off of 30-35. Dr. Repta invented the Plus Size Tummy Tuck® because he understands the power and importance of being able to not only look your best with a narrow and flat tummy but also because a Plus Size Tummy Tuck® can be a profound help physically and emotionally to patients who suffer from a heavy overhang of tissue. Always with a focus on safety, Dr. Repta developed and refined the Plus Size Tummy Tuck® procedure over the last sixteen-plus years to provide amazing results safely.
The Plus Size Tummy Tuck® is not the only tummy tuck Dr. Repta performs, however. As co-author of Atlas of Abdominoplasty, a textbook designed to teach all that there is about tummy tuck surgery to plastic surgeons, Dr. Repta has published, performed, and refined tummy tuck procedures such as reverse tummy tuck, complicated tummy tuck revision surgery, endoscopic tummy tuck, and many other tummy tuck variations in addition to the traditional tummy tuck. (visit our top ten tummy tuck recovery post to learn more). In this way, Dr. Repta is able to deliver one of the best tummy tuck surgeries Scottsdale has to offer.
