Tummy tuck is a popular plastic surgery procedure that is used to remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area. Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is most popular among women, particularly for those whose mid sections have stretched and become enlarged due to child bearing, although today many men are taking advantage of this procedure. During a tummy tuck, an incision is placed along the lower abdomen. The abdominal skin is pulled up, part of the skin is removed and the abdominal muscles are tightened. The skin is then sutured back in place. A highly skilled plastic surgeon can place the scar so that it can be easily hidden by the bikini bottom. When making a decision about the tummy tuck procedure, it is best to consider many factors about the surgery, not just cost. The experience of the surgeon and the results he or she has obtained for other tummy tuck patients should be carefully reviewed. Tummy tuck can also be part of a body contouring procedure used to rejuvenate a patient's shape after weight loss surgery. The most common types of weight loss surgeries are Lap Band and gastric bypass. Other less invasive procedures can be used to improve the appearance of the skin, such as microdermabrasion and laser skin resurfacing.
