Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck, also known as “abdominoplasty,” is a popular procedure to gain a sleeker midsection. This is especially prevalent among women who have had children, because pregnancy can stretch and loosen the abdominal muscles extensively. A tummy tuck is a viable solution to this problem. Anyone with loose skin on the tummy or a protruding belly can benefit from this slimming surgical process.
Dr. Kinney can customize the tummy tuck to your needs. The length of the incision depends on the amount of excess skin present and other factors, but usually, it is made just above the pubic region. Underwear or bikini bottoms should hide your tummy tuck scar quite easily. Loose skin and underlying muscles will be tightened during the procedure. If you have a great amount of fat in this area, liposuction can be added to your tummy tuck to enhance the results. This procedure requires two to four weeks of recovery, but the outcome may definitely be worth your time. It is important to note that women who are planning on becoming pregnant may want to have their tummy tuck at a later time since pregnancy can reverse the effects of a tummy tuck.
