Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty, or Tummy Tuck, is a procedure to improve the abdomen's appearance. During abdominoplasty, excess abdominal skin and fat are removed, abdominal muscles are tightened, and the contour of the abdominal wall is reshaped. The goal is to achieve a firmer, more toned, and harmonious abdomen.
Who is a good candidate?
A good candidate for Abdominoplasty is a patient with excess skin and fat in the abdominal region, usually due to significant weight changes, pregnancy, or aging. Ideal in cases where the abdominal muscles are weakened or separated.
