What You Need To Know About Abdominoplasty

People choose abdominoplasty for many reasons, including to:

• Remove excess fat from your abdominal area
• Remove excess skin from your abdominal area
• Tighten the tissue and skin of the abdominal wall
• Enhance and define your waistline

An abdominoplasty is a major surgery that is performed under general anesthesia. The procedure takes between two and three hours and typically requires an overnight stay in the hospital. During your abdominoplasty, our plastic surgeon will:

• Make an incision above your pubic area
• Lift the abdominal skin and expose the abdominal muscles
• Repair and tighten the abdominal muscles
• Remove excess skin and tighten the remaining skin
• Close the incision

Liposuction is often added to abdominoplasty. Liposuction uses vacuum suction and other methods to remove excess fat deposits.

You should consider abdominoplasty if you want your body to look:

• Firmer and tighter
• Thinner and more youthful
• Better in and out of clothing

Abdominoplasty can help you feel better about yourself, boosting your self-confidence and self-esteem. Abdominoplasty can also give you the motivation you need to be more active and live a healthier, happier life.
