What is a Tummy Tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is a surgical method that removes excess fat and skin from the abdominal area. The procedure will result in a flatter, smaller abdomen. This will give you a better and healthier looking body. With regular exercise and moderate diet, the results of a tummy tuck can last many years!
How Does a Tummy Tuck Work?
The tummy tuck is a medical procedure for individuals with loose muscles or a saggy abdominal area. Before the procedure, general anesthesia is administered to ensure the patient experiences no pain during the tummy tuck. Dr. Rubinstein then makes a lateral incision across the lower stomach area. The skin is then lifted, which tightens the abdominal muscles while eliminating excess fat and sagging skin. Finally, the remaining skin in sutured and then the procedure is complete. The process usually takes approximately three hours or less. The result is a tight belly area with no excess or sagging skin.
Who is a Strong Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?
Tummy tucks are one of the most popular procedures that plastic surgeons perform. People who are currently living with loose skin or a sagging abdomen can experience a massive change after this procedure. However, please keep in mind that any woman considering both this procedure and pregnancy in the near future should wait until after childbirth to undergo a tummy tuck.
