If you want a flatter tummy tuck and you are unable to get it by doing exercise or dieting, you can be recommended a tummy tuck surgery which is also known as abdominoplasty. The surgery can flatten your tummy by removing extra fat and skin and tightening muscles in your abdominal wall. Although it is different from Liposculpture you may choose it to get along with tummy tuck to get effective results.

 Since it is major surgery, before considering it you should collect all the required information from the experts.

 

The procedure is equally suitable for men and women having good health. The procedure is quite useful for women who have had several pregnancies to tighten their abdominal muscles and reduce skins. It is also good for those who recently reduced their weight but fat is still deposited on the abdominal area or if the skin is loose around the belly area.

 

The surgery is not good for the woman who is planning a pregnancy until you are done having children as during the surgery the vertical muscles are tightened and future pregnancies can distribute those muscles.

Tummy tuck before and after:

 

First, choose the correct surgeon and consult him/her to know the procedures’ pros and cons. At the office, the surgeon cuts your abdomen to eliminate most of the skin and fat starting from your belly button to pubic hair in a horizontal oval or elliptical shape. In addition, the connective tissue that lies over the abdominal muscles is then compressed with the durable joint.

 

 For some people, mini-abdominoplasty is done because their fat deposits are located under the navel. During the procedure, the surgeon does not move your belly button. The procedure may continue for two hours depending on your case.

 

After the procedure is done, whatever it is a partial or complete tummy tuck, the surgeon will stitch and bandage the operated area. The patient will have to follow all the instructions of his/her surgeon on how to care for the bandage for some days after the surgery.
