Excess tummy skin and fat and loose abdominal wall can result from various reasons
such as pregnancies, weight fluctuations and surgical and drug induced weight loss.
Tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a procedure that removes redundant
skin and fatty tissue from the abdomen and tightens the abdominal muscles. The
procedure creates a flatter and toned abdomen while creating a narrower waist. There
are variations to the tummy tuck procedures based on individual patient anatomy and
needs.
