Your figure matters to you and you work hard to maintain it. You choose wisely when you are thinking about what to put into your body. Exercise is a priority as well. In spite of all your efforts, you may not have the results that will make you satisfied. Stubborn fat can creep up and settle in problem areas. The abdominal area is one of the worst trouble spots. If your weight is where it should be and you have been doing everything possible to tone your tummy without positive results, it may be time to consider getting help from a skilled plastic surgeon, such as Dr. Kullamaa. Put your body in the right hands to tone your stomach with abdominoplasty.
When to Choose Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty, otherwise known as a tummy tuck, is a popular cosmetic procedure that can address the abdominal area when it needs some help to tighten it up. This procedure produces more advanced results than liposuction. Liposuction is only for fat removal. Abdominoplasty removes deposits of fat, eliminates excess skin, and tightens the muscles of the abdominal region. This procedure is especially helpful for women who have been pregnant, especially more than once. For individuals who have lost a great deal of weight, abdominoplasty can be the final step in helping them to get the body they have always wanted. Abdominoplasty is recommended for people who are not overweight but have trouble with toning their abdomens on their own.
What Happens During the Procedure?
Our plastic surgeon will trim away excess skin that has not responded to exercise and diet. Any deposits of fat that have accumulated will be suctioned out. The muscles in the abdominal region can be tightened through the strategic placement of sutures. The healing process will involve restrictions from strenuous activity. It will be tender and there will be swelling for some time following surgery. In the months following the procedure, it will be possible to enjoy the results when clothes fit better than they did before and that toned tummy looks its best.
