Abdominoplasty, more commonly referred to as a “tummy tuck”, is a procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal area. Tummy tucks often restore muscles that have been separated or weakened to create a smooth and firm abdominal profile. This procedure eliminates loose and sagging skin commonly caused by:
- Aging
- Heredity
- Previous surgery
- Substantial weight fluctuations
- Pregnancy
