Abdominoplasty

What is Abdominoplasty?

The skin and muscles of the anterior abdominal wall can be stretched during pregnancy or excessive weight gain. In some people this leaves loose skin and fat which can cause difficulty with clothing and may look unattractive.

Exercise and diet can help to reverse these changes to some extent but in many people it is difficult to get back to the shape you once had. In these instances surgery may be helpful to tighten the muscles and remove the excess skin (referred to as an abdominoplasty or "tummy tuck").
