Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery
After significant weight loss or pregnancy, excess abdominal skin can create persistent aesthetic concerns. A tummy tuck, medically known as abdominoplasty, provides a surgical solution for patients seeking abdominal refinement.
What is a Tummy Tuck?
Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fatty tissue while tightening abdominal wall muscles. The result is a tighter, more contoured abdomen. Patients should understand that this procedure is a body sculpting technique, not a weight loss treatment, and is most effective for individuals already at or near their ideal weight.
Tummy Tuck Procedure Details
- Removes excess abdominal skin
- Tightens underlying muscle structure

Recovery Expectations
Tummy tuck recovery requires patience and careful adherence to post-operative instructions.

A supportive binder will be worn during initial healing, and drainage tubes may be temporarily placed.
