Tighten Loose Abdominal Skin with a Tummy Tuck

You've done everything you can to tighten your tummy. You have experimented with every exercise that is meant to target your abdominal muscles. You work out daily to keep your body at your ideal weight. You make healthy choices when it comes to eating. In spite of all that you do, you still have flabby skin and excess fat on your stomach. You're tired of it, and you want to see positive results. Fortunately, you can sculpt your body with a tummy tuck.

Get the Extra Nudge You Need

Sometimes, we need a little extra help from a plastic surgeon to shape our bodies. Fat and flabby skin can be stubborn when it comes to your stomach. Loose skin is especially the case if you have been pregnant or you have lost a considerable amount of weight. Your body may not snap back to the way it used to be. You can work out as much as possible and continue to cut calories, but that may not be enough. A tummy tuck allows you to smooth out your stomach.

What Happens During a Tummy Tuck Procedure?

The details of each procedure vary from patient to patient since everyone is unique. However, during a typical tummy tuck, Dr. Katzen removes excess skin and fat. Your abdominal muscles can also be tightened. The remaining skin will be pulled down until it is tight. A tummy tuck should result in a smooth stomach without any excess hanging skin and fat.

Is a Tummy Tuck the Answer for You?

If you are considering a tummy tuck, your weight should be stable—that means you should not be gaining weight nor losing weight. Once you have had a tummy tuck, you will need to continue to exercise regularly and follow the right kind of diet to maintain your new shapely figure, as weight gain could diminish the results of your surgery.
