Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, or ‘abdominoplasty’, is cosmetic surgery to improve the shape of the tummy area (abdomen). It can involve removing fat and excess loose skin and tightening the abdominal muscles. The aim is to remove excess tummy skin that can’t be removed through exercise – for example, after losing a lot of weight or after pregnancy.

About the procedure
A tummy tuck, medically referred to as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the abdomen. This transformative treatment addresses several concerns, including:
- Excess Skin Removal: Ideal for patients who have experienced significant weight loss or post-pregnancy changes, leading to loose or sagging abdominal skin.
- Muscle Tightening: For individuals with weakened or separated abdominal muscles, offering a solution to regain a firmer and more toned abdominal profile.
- Fat Reduction: Can be combined with liposuction to remove stubborn fat deposits, further sculpting the abdominal area.
