A Note about Abdominoplasty Surgery and Tummy Tuck

Abdominoplasty surgery, also known as tummy tuck, is one type of cosmetic plastic surgery that is commonly performed to enhance a person's appearance, shape and profile. Plastic surgeons in the Tacoma area who perform abdominoplasty may also perform other types of cosmetic plastic surgery procedures for body contouring such as body lift. Tacoma, Federal Way and Lakewood abdominoplasty and tummy tuck surgeons may also offer nonsurgical  cosmetic procedures such as mesotherapy (lipo-dissolve), microdermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing, and Botox; as well as anti-aging skin care ointments, lotions and treatments. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is not a type of weight loss surgery, also known as bariatric surgery or gastric bypass surgery. However, tummy tuck may be an effective procedure after the massive weight loss induced by the gastric bypass or Lap Band procedure.
