Our bodies change considerably as we age. After pregnancy or significant weight loss, the abdominal muscles and skin can sag, and no amount of diet or exercise fully restores a youthful tummy. A tummy tuck — also known as abdominoplasty — can give you a smoother, taut appearance, and help you feel more confident in your own skin.
Performed by Dr. Brett Carlin, M.D., F.A.C.S., the procedure removes extra skin and fat while tightening the abdominal muscles, helping both men and women achieve a flatter, more youthful abdomen. For many, the ultimate benefit is a rise in self-esteem once the body has returned to its pre-pregnancy form.
It removes excess abdominal skin and fat and tightens the underlying muscle, producing a smoother, flatter, taut abdomen.
Both men and women who are bothered by loose skin and a stubborn abdominal “pooch” after pregnancy or significant weight loss — changes that diet and exercise alone can't fully correct.
