Abdominoplasty Tummy Tuck

Abdominoplasty or "tummy tuck," is a procedure designed to contour the abdomen. The procedure involves removal of excess abdominal skin and fat as well as tightening of the muscles of the abdominal wall. This procedure is especially helpful for any condition causing laxity of the abdominal wall ie. weight loss and/ or pregnancy. If performed appropriately by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon this procedure usually involves minimal scarring that can be hidden beneath the bikini line.
