Cosmetic SurgeryA relatively widespread form of plastic surgery called an abdominoplasty or more colloquially a tummy tuck is a procedure which is used to remove excess skin and fat around the stomach, resulting in a flatter and firmer stomach. The techniques that are used to perform this type of cosmetic surgery are not entirely dissimilar to those employed when performing a face lift, although the tummy tuck is obviously a significantly large scale procedure with various implications for the patient. There are various types of tummy tuck, a smaller procedure known as a mini-abdominoplasty is more popular and comparatively inexpensive procedure that many people opt for, whilst the complete abdominoplasty is a much expensive and major operation, although the results are often much more pronounced. The procedure is performed by making an incision from around the area of the hip across the bottom of the stomach, and a further incision to separate the navel from the flesh which is to be repositioned. This loosened skin is then removed so that the muscles and cartilage can be tightened, then skin is then replaced and the excess is removed. Cosmetic Surgery Consultants provide Anti-Aging Surgery so you can grow old elegantly with simple procedures such as a Blepharoplasty (Eye Bag Removal) or a Rhytidectomy (Facelift) or a less intrusive Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty) or Mini Facelift or to smooth out frown lines a Brow Lift. |
