What is a tummy-tuck (abdominoplasty)?
A tummy tuck aims to flatten your stomach by tightening your abdominal muscles.
You may have been left with folds of skin after losing weight or following pregnancy. Your saggy tummy may simply be a result of the ageing process or it could be a stubborn area that you have been unable to shift with diet or exercise. Whatever the reason, an abdominoplasty from Spire Cosmetic Surgery could give you a slimmer, more shapely figure.
The procedure should not be considered as a way to lose weight. It is better to have a tummy tuck after you have achieved your target weight.
About tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) surgery
During a tummy tuck, incisions are made across the lower abdomen and around the tummy button. Excess skin and fat may be removed and stretched or torn muscles are pulled together and stitched in place. The remaining skin is then pulled down and a new hole is made for your tummy button.
You will be left with a scar around your tummy button and along the top of your bikini line, though this can usually be hidden by your underwear. If you maintain a healthy weight, your skin shouldn’t stretch again and your new shape will last. .
