40 Year Old Ms. Treated With Belly Tuck Patient By Dr Wojciech Dec, MD, New York, New York

A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure performed to improve the contour of the abdomen. It is commonly performed to counteract the effects of aging, after weight loss, or after pregnancy. During an abdominoplasty excess skin and fat are removed from your lower abdomen and the remaining skin and belly button are repositioned. The incision is designed to hide in your undergarment; its length depends on how much tissue needs to be removed. The abdominal muscles can be tightened during the procedure to restore a more slender waistline. (Sep 5, 2019)
