Tummy Tuck
In the abdominal stretching process (tummy-tuck), the excess fat is removed from the whole abdomen and waist
area, the excess skin under the navel is removed and the problematic abdominal muscles are repaired.
What is tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is cosmetic surgery to improve the shape of the tummy area (abdomen). It can
involve removing excess loose skin, fat and stretch marks and tightening the abdominal muscles. The aim is to
remove excess skin on the tummy that cannot be removed through exercise – for example, excess skin caused by
pregnancy or losing a lot of weight.
What does it involve?
There are 2 types of Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty);
A partial abdominoplasty involves:
- Making a large cut (incision) across the lower tummy
- Separating the skin from the abdominal wall below the belly button
- Removing excess fat and skin
- Pulling to get their main skin and stitching it in place
A full abdominoplasty involves:
- Making a large incision across the lower tummy, from hiptohip, just above the pubic area
- Making a second incision to free the belly button from the tissue that surrounds it
- Separating the skin from the abdominal wall
- Realigning the abdominal muscles
- Removing excess fat and skin
- Cutting a new hole for the belly button and stitching this back in place
- Pulling together their main skin and stitching it in place
