Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck): Achieving a Firmer, Flatter Abdomen

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen, as well as tighten weakened abdominal muscles. This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or aging, resulting in loose abdominal ¹ skin and muscle laxity.

Goals of Abdominoplasty

• Excess skin and fat removal (Abdominal lipectomy): Abdominoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the mid and lower abdomen, improving contour and appearance.
• Abdominal muscle repair: This procedure repairs weakened or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), creating a firmer and flatter abdominal wall.
• Abdominal contouring: Abdominoplasty reshapes and refines the abdomen, enhancing overall body proportions.
• Lipoabdominoplasty: This combines liposuction with a traditional abdominoplasty to remove stubborn fat deposits and further refine abdominal contours.
• Abdominal plastic surgery: This is the medical term for all forms of surgery pertaining to the abdomen, and abdominoplasty falls under this catagory.

Benefits of Abdominoplasty

• Improved abdominal contour and appearance.
• Increased confidence and self-esteem.
