Abdominoplasty: Tummy Tuck

What is abdominoplasty?

Abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and, when appropriate, repairs or tightens the abdominal wall. It can help improve abdominal contour and create a firmer appearance.

What specialist do I need for a tummy tuck?

Abdominoplasty is performed by a plastic surgeon. During the consultation, the specialist evaluates excess skin and fat, the condition of the abdominal wall, and the patient's individual characteristics to determine which type of tummy tuck may be appropriate.

When should I consider a tummy tuck?

It may be considered when there is loose or excess abdominal skin, excess fat, or separation of the abdominal muscles, which can occur after pregnancy, significant weight changes, or previous abdominal surgery. A tummy tuck is not a weight-loss procedure.
