A tummy tuck, medically known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and tighten the abdominal area. It involves removing excess fat and skin while repairing weakened or separated abdominal muscles.
The surgery can help individuals achieve a flatter and more toned midsection. Tummy tucks are often sought by those who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or aging-related changes.
While it can provide aesthetic improvements, it is a major surgery with associated risks and recovery time. Patients should consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to assess their suitability and understand the procedure’s potential benefits and limitations.
