A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying muscles. It is commonly performed to improve the appearance of the stomach area, especially after pregnancy, significant weight loss, or aging.
There are different types of tummy tucks, including:
👉🏻Full Tummy Tuck: Involves removing excess skin and fat from the entire abdominal area and tightening the abdominal muscles.
👉🏻Mini Tummy Tuck: A less invasive procedure that focuses on the lower abdomen below the belly button.
👉🏻Extended Tummy Tuck: Targets a larger area, including the flanks or sides, typically for individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight.
A tummy tuck is not a weight-loss procedure but rather a body contouring surgery. Recovery can take several weeks, and patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities during the healing process.. but, the transformation can be life changing.
