Abdominoplasty Surgery (aka tummy-tuck)
The abdomen is an area on the body where fat collects and is sometimes especially hard to counteract. Sometimes, especially after pregnancy or major weight loss, the skin on the abdomen can sag. For patients who wish to make their abdomen slimmer and their waist narrower instantaneously.
Tummy tuck, technically known as abdominoplasty, involves removing loose skin and fat from around the midsection and tightening the muscles of the abdomen. The result is a tighter, flatter, more attractive abdominal region. For some patients, liposuction or liposculpture, may be performed to further tighten the skin and refine the abdominal contour.
This surgery grants a thinner abdomen, making patients slimmer. Abdominoplasty surgery reduces the measurements in this region and our patients usually have to renew their wardrobes. Even if you are overweight, join our nutritional-guidance program and you will be able to have the surgery in no time.
There are a few different abdominoplasty modalities and all of them aim at achieving a well-defined waist without excess skin, a very natural navel and a scar hidden under the undergarments or bikini.
Indicated for those that have:
- Separation (diastasis) of the abdominal muscles
- Fat build up
- Excess skin below or above the navel
- Loss of the waist curves
