Abdominoplasty:

An abdominoplasty, or "tummy tuck", is designed to firm and smooth your abdomen. It is best indicated for those with excessive, loose skin and fatty tissue of the abdomen, and protuberance of the lower abdomen from lax stomach muscles. The procedure removes excess skin and fat from below the belly-button, to the bikini line, and may also tighten the muscles of the abdomen. Liposuction of the upper abdomen, hips and flanks is often added to the procedure as well, to enhance the overall results. The operation results in a horizontal scar above the bikini line, extending across the lower abdomen. A second scar is often hidden within the belly button. Each scar can be designed to lie within your preferred style of undergarments or swim-wear.

Abdominoplasty is a safe, effective and frequently performed operation with excellent results and high patient satisfaction. Complications are infrequent, but will be discussed with you during your consultation. Some pre-existing abdominal scars and smoking can increase the risks associated with this surgery.
