Tummy Tuck

Abdominoplasty, also known as a “tummy tuck” is a procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen. The procedure also usually involves tightening of the abdominal muscles. Tummy tuck surgery aims to give you a flatter, firmer abdomen with better abdominal muscle tone.

Excess skin and fat in the abdomen can make people self-conscious and feel less confident about themselves. In some cases, people may seek tummy tuck surgery because the excessive skin and fat can result in difficulties with choosing clothes, exercising and performing other activities. Some people may also have separation of their abdominal muscles causing a gap (rectus divarication), especially after multiple pregnancies. The separated muscles can be sutured back together during your tummy tuck surgery to improve your muscle tone and function.

Most people who seek tummy tuck surgery would like to remove the excessive skin and fat in their abdomen that they are unable to shift with just diet and exercise alone. This excess tissue and loss of skin elasticity in the abdomen is commonly a result of:

• Weight changes
• Pregnancies
• Natural Aging
