:: Abdominoplasty ::
Ideal candidates for this procedure are usually women and men who have significant amounts of excess skin as a result of weight loss and/or child bearing. This operation removes the extra skin and fat of the abdomen and flattens the abdomen as well.
Patients should be at a stable weight and be in generally excellent health. Women should have completed child bearing.
The procedure can also tighten the abdominal muscles that have separated during pregnancy. Some patients are better candidates for abdominal Liposuction (more fat, less skin), or the lower body lift (excess skin in abdomen, hips, and buttocks). A consultation will help you decide which is best for you. Recovery is 2-4 weeks.
