Abdominoplasty, also known as a ‘tummy
tuck’, involves the removal of excess skin and abdominal fat. It is
part of a group of body contouring operations which also includes fat
removal procedures such as liposculpture, or liposuction, along with
other skin tightening procedures like arm, thigh, and buttock lifts, and
muscle enhancing procedures; calf, buttock, pectoral, or abdominal (six
pack) implants.
Individuals who tend to seek Abdominoplasty tend to be
either;
• Women with excess skin and fat
following pregnancy
• Men or women with folds of skin
following weight loss
• Individuals with stretch marks or weak
abdominal wall muscles following weight loss or pregnancy.
