Abdominoplasty

Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is a procedure to remove the excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen. At the same time we usually repair the muscles that may have been stretched during pregnancy as this procedure is most common in women after they’ve had children. The other time we may use it is in people that have lost a fair amount of weight either through diet and exercise or with bariatric surgery. The recovery may be a little bit longer than many of the other procedures, but I think the results are definitely worth it for a nice flat abdomen that allows you to wear clothes that you could otherwise not be able to wear.
