Tummy Tuck

This procedure flattens the loose, protruding lower abdomen by removing skin and fat tissue and tightening the abdominal muscles. Depending upon the amount of excess tissue, the extent of surgery varies, from mini-abdominoplasty (mini-tuck) to full abdominoplasty. This procedure may be combined with liposuction of the specific areas. This procedure creates a dramatic change in abdominal contour.
