Tummy Tuck Introduction
Abdominal lift surgery, or Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty), generally is a procedure to improve and/or remove excess skin or flabbiness from the abdomen, from the forward and center area of the abdomen, to the sides of the abdomen. By removing the skin and excess fat from the abdominal wall, this allows the connective tissue of the abdominal wall to tighten balances out the proportions of the abdomen. This procedure results in a smoother and more aesthetic looking abdomen, and higher self-confidence.
Abdominal lift surgery, or Tummy Tuck, is not a fat removal procedure. Overweight patients should postpone any aesthetic surgery until they reach and maintain their desired weight for an extended amount of time. There are many techniques for abdominal lift surgery, and can be performed in conjunction with other aesthetic surgeries such as fat removal surgery or breast augmentation surgery. Patients able to undergo abdominal surgery should be of legal age, in good physical condition, have balanced bodily proportions, have no severe medical conditions, or any medical condition that affects the wound healing process, and must be a non-smoker.
*In any case, for women who have had C-section surgeries, C-section scarring are often used as the incision points for abdominal lift surgery, and results may vary for patients who have already had any abdominal surgery.
* In some cases, abdominal lift surgery may be considered in conjunction with fat removal surgery depending on the attending doctor’s recommendation and discretion.
