Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that helps to flatten, tighten and reshape. The procedure can also be useful for women with stretched skin and muscles from pregnancy.

Its two main components are restoring the muscles to the midline and removing skin and tissue from the lower abdomen. A limited amount of liposuction is done for a more sculpted appearance. The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia. 		 
    
 

Recovery time ranges from two to six weeks depending on the extent of the operation. The lower abdominoplasty scar is nicely concealed with a bikini. A lesser procedure consists of only muscle tightening or with skin and fat removal. (Only can be performed in selected patients.)
