What is a tummy tuck?

A tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) is a surgical procedure which tightens a lax abdominal wall and removes excess abdominal skin and fat.  It may be a reconstructive or cosmetic treatment.

Cosmetic surgery is performed to reshape normal structures of the body in order to improve the patient’s appearance and self-esteem. Reconstructive surgery is performed on abnormal structures of the body, generally performed to improve function and may also be done to approximate a normal appearance. It has also been found to improve chronic lower back pain due to functional incompetence of the anterior abdominal wall. When considering a Tummy Tucks, there are several elements to be considered.
