Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a Tummy Tuck, is a body contouring procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening weakened or separated muscles. This creates a firmer, flatter midsection and enhances overall body proportions.
The procedure is ideal for individuals who have
- Experienced significant weight loss, leading to loose, sagging skin
- Undergone pregnancy, resulting in abdominal muscle separation (diastasis recti).
- Struggled with stubborn lower belly fat and skin laxity that does not respond to diet and exercise.
Why Choose Abdominoplasty?
- Tightens the core muscles, improving posture and stability
- Creates a slimmer, more sculpted waistline
- Boosts confidence, making you feel comfortable and confident in any outfit
- Delivers long lasting results, maintaining a toned abdomen
