Dr. Balinger is a miracle doctor!! He really exceeded my expectations. I never thought that I would get my body back after 6 kids! The hanging tummy, the flabby skin ALL GONE 🙌🏾 after my fleur de lis tummy tuck, lipo 360 and flank lift. I am a new woman. His staff is also great, they are all so warm, welcoming and friendly. Thank you, Dr. Balinger and staff!
Just had lipo and tummy tuck a day ago. Everything went smooth, didn't even get sick after surgery. That was a first! Thank you Dr. Balinger and his whole staff for making this as easy as they could. Can't wait to see my results.
Let me just say it's not easy finding a doctor that does high BMI tummy tucks. It's been a journey and I found a great doctor. Dr. Christopher Balinger removed over 20 pounds of skin and fat from my midsection and lipo 360. The day of surgery, the nurse and his whole staff were professional and kind. My surgery took 4 hours and it felt like I was asleep for 5 minutes. The lipo 360 he definitely sculpted me well. I look snatched from the back, but not overdone. He knows what you'll like, just let him know.
A flatter, firmer abdomen where loose skin and a lower-belly bulge once stood out. This is what tightening the muscles and removing the excess actually looks like.

After pregnancy or weight loss, the stomach muscles separate down the middle and the skin stops bouncing back. Crunches cannot close a muscle gap, and no cream tightens hanging skin. A tummy tuck addresses both concerns at their source.
Up to 10 pounds of loose, hanging skin comes off, along with many of the stretch marks located on the skin removed during surgery.
Pregnancy and weight changes can separate the abdominal muscles (a condition called diastasis recti). Dr. Balinger repairs the separated abdominal muscles, helping create the flatter stomach that diet and exercise alone cannot achieve.
Liposuction is added for contour, so the waist and flanks match your flatter abdomen instead of standing out around it.
Dr. Balinger would rather tell you the honest answer at your consultation than have you unhappy later. You are likely a strong candidate if you have:
Planning a future pregnancy or a large weight loss? He will usually tell you to wait, because either can undo the result.
Not every stomach needs the full procedure. There are 4 tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) techniques, each matched to how much skin and muscle separation you actually have. Dr. Balinger picks the smallest one that gets the result.
The complete procedure, hip to hip, with the belly button repositioned. For loose skin and muscle separation across the whole abdomen.
Targets stubborn skin and fat below the navel only. Under two hours, no belly button repositioning.
The most extensive option. Reaches around to the hips for larger amounts of loose skin, with a longer incision.
Adds a vertical incision for patients with excess skin in both directions, common after major weight loss.

Fellowship-trained plastic surgeon in Houston. Spend two minutes with him before you ever book, and you will see what he cares about most: natural-looking results and an honest answer about what you actually need.
A tummy tuck is a judgment call as much as a technique: how much skin to take, how tight to set the muscles, where the scar sits. That judgment comes from volume.
Plenty of surgeons trim skin. What flattens a stomach for good is repairing the separated abdominal muscles underneath. That is what Dr. Balinger focuses on.
Not every surgeon will. Patients who were turned away elsewhere are often exactly who he helps. His reviews say so in their own words.
Planning another pregnancy or a major weight loss? He will tell you to wait, since either can undo the result. You get his honest recommendation, not a hard sell.
You have been thinking about this a while. The consultation is free, it costs you an hour, and you will leave knowing exactly which procedure fits your body, including if the answer is to wait.
