Reasons for a Tummy Tuck Surgery
The tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is an operation intended to remove extra skin and fat on the abdomen as well as tighten the abdominal wall. It will provide a flatter, smoother abdominal and hip profile. The most common reasons for tummy tucks are:
- Appearance of abdomen after child birth
- Extra (redundant) skin after weight loss
- Stretch Marks
- Fat collections that do not respond to dieting
- Weak bulging abdominal wall
