Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin from the abdomen, often left behind by weight loss or pregnancy. Excess fat and skin is removed from the middle to lower abdomen and the muscles of the abdominal wall are tightened to flatten and redefine the abdominal area. Abdominoplasty is not a surgical treatment for being overweight. Obese individuals who intend to lose weight should postpone all forms of body contouring surgery until they have been able to maintain their weight loss.
