Atlanta Tummy Tuck – Abdominoplasty

Excess skin and fat can build up on the abdominal area due to weight gain, pregnancy or weak abdominal muscles. Abdominal muscles that have been stretched and skin stretched along with them, often do not respond to exercise. Even persons with the most strict diet and exercise plan sometimes do not see the results they have been working so hard for. Abdominoplasty, or a “tummy tuck”, is designed to correct a protruding abdomen.

In this procedure, the abdominal wall muscles are tightened and excess fatty tissue and skin are removed to improve the body contour. The goal is a narrower, flatter abdomen. It can be done in combination with liposuction to further define areas such as the flanks, hips and lower back. While it can be an effective treatment for those that are having trouble toning their mid section, abdominoplasty is not a substitute for weight loss.
