What is Abdominoplasty?
THE abdominoplasty It is the surgical procedure that allows the removal of excess skin and fat from the abdominal region and also strengthens the muscles of the abdominal wall.
It can be combined with other body contouring surgical procedures.
Previous pregnancies or weight loss can lead to a sagging abdomen, which even diet and exercise can't correct. This procedure can help sculpt a flatter, more defined abdomen.
This surgical procedure allows us to treat the 3 main problems in this region:
- excess fat;
- excess skin;
- diastasis (separation of the abdominal wall muscles).
Ideal candidates for abdominoplasty are those who exercise regularly, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and are still not satisfied with the appearance of their abdominal region.
It is important to understand that this procedure is not weight loss surgery; on the contrary, maintaining a stable weight is essential for better and more lasting results.
