Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)

What is a Tummy Tuck?

Abdominoplasty often referred to as a tummy tuck, removes the apron of excess skin and fat which may follow dramatic weight loss. The surgery restores weakened or separated abdominal muscles. After surgery, you will have a smoother, firmer abdomen.
