What Is Ab Etching?
A flat, toned stomach can typically be achieved through a healthy diet plan and exercise, but "washboard" abs are very difficult and, in some cases, impossible to get. If you want a defined stomach with a clear "six-pack," board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ross Bunch offers abdominal sculpting at his office in Tuscaloosa, AL. A highly refined liposculpture technique, abdominal etching, or abdominal sculpting, as it's also called, can be helpful in removing small quantities of stubborn fat from your belly to further define your ab muscles. Schedule a consultation at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa to find out more information on ab etching.
How Is Ab Etching Performed?
Dr. Bunch performs ab etching as an outpatient surgery with general anesthesia. Throughout the 1 – 2 hour procedure, Dr. Bunch will make one or more tiny incisions so he can insert a thin, hollow tube (cannula) to suction fat. Dr. Bunch generally uses liposculpture techniques to loosen and remove fat to achieve a more defined result. He will then define the outline of the rectus muscle and the midline linea alba. In order to reveal a six-pack, he may also etch the transverse inscriptions and horizontal lines. When the fat is liposuctioned, and the stomach muscles are fully defined, Dr. Bunch will close the incisions with sutures.

Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa Reviews
This surgeon is amazing! Very skilled in what he does, very knowledgeable, and his staff is very helpful and very very professional. He was able to get my procedure covered by my medical insurance, which cut his payment down to very little! But you would think I paid $1 million based on the treatment, and the courtesy and concern that all have demonstrated during my procedure and recovery. I traveled from out of state to have this procedure and honestly, I don’t think I would’ve found a greater experience than I found at Plastic Surgery Of Tuscaloosa and Doctor Bunch! He definitely cares about what you care about!!!
Dr. Bunch has proven his self noteworthy with me. He has the ability to transform lives as I know it! I suffer from a metabolic syndrome and even with diet and exercise I would have not been able to alleviate the excessive fat and skin from my body. I lost 65 pounds and due to my apron developing a rash and no relief of cream, it was deemed medically necessary to have the excess skin and fat removed from my abdomen. Dr. Bunch made me feel comfortable and like family. He ensured he would take care of me and he did. I’m truly thankful for his gift of surgery on my body because he truly transformed and addressed the health issues I was dealing with. I hope this encourages anyone who is searching for relief to try him. You have found the right answer you have been looking for!
Dr. Bunch listens to your concerns and is nice. I’ve experienced speaking with another plastic surgeon and he was rude and made me feel worse about myself, but Dr. Bunch is very professional but also helps you realize what your concerns are and makes me feel better about myself and the results I can achieve. I would definitely refer him as your Plastic Surgeon.
