Tummy tuck

A tummy tuck is a cosmetic surgery procedure aiming at removal of excess fat and skin as well as tightening of abdominal muscles. It may really boost your self-confidence, especially if you suffer from ‘stubborn’ fat, which does not go away no matter how long and how strenuously you work out. This cosmetic surgery is one of the most popular procedures among both celebrities and us ‘not so famous’ people. Tummy tuck’s effects are long-lasting, tummy tuck scars are almost invisible and hidden under underwear. If you cannot lose the stubborn fat on your abdomen, a tummy tuck can be the right choice.

About

What to Expect

The procedure involves making a curved cut along the base of your abdomen from hip to hip. Excess skin and fat are removed, your abdominal muscles are tightened, and the remaining skin is pulled back into place. In a full abdominoplasty your surgeon will make another cut around your belly button to reposition it. The cuts are then closed with stitches.

Liposuction may be performed at the same time as your abdominoplasty to achieve an aesthetically balanced shape.
