Abdominoplasty - Weight
Loss Surgery
What is Abdominoplasty?
Abdominoplasty - also known as Tummy
Tuck - is a surgical procedure to remove loose skin from areas
where large fast weight loss (or pregnancy) has left surplus skin which
cannot be reduced by exercise or dieting.
This loose skin may be a particular problem
for seniors who were obese for a long time before losing a lot of weight,
because skin loses elasticity with age.
Abdominoplasty Procedure
During the abdominoplasty surgical procedure
the surplus skin is removed and the remaining skin restitched. This operation
may leave a scar along the bikini line and occasionally the navel.
Like all bariatric weight loss surgery, abdominoplasty
is a serious operation and may be combined with other weight loss surgery,
such as liposuction.
