The stomach is an area of the body that is challenging to sculpt with diet and exercise. Losing weight can even cause more issues, leading to sagging loose skin. For those who have large amounts of sagging skin around the abdomen, there is the full tummy tuck.
A full tummy tuck is a comprehensive cosmetic procedure that reshapes the stomach by getting rid of excess tissue. Also known as an abdominoplasty, this procedure contours the body and achieves a flat, tight stomach.
To begin, an incision is made that stretches the span of the hips. Another incision frees the umbilicus. Excess skin and fat are removed, the muscles are tightened and the remaining area is sutured.
