Otherwise known
as a "tummy tuck", this procedure can eliminate excess,
damaged or stretched-out skin resulting from pregnancy or from
extremes of weight gain and weight loss. No amount of exercise
can restore the skin to its original quality after such damage
has occurred.
During
abdominoplasty, the muscles of the abdomen are tightened to
flatten its contour. Striae or stretch marks of the lower
abdomen may be completely removed as a consequence of this
procedure. When combined with liposuction, dramatic changes in
body shape are achieved. |
