Whilst full abdominoplasty surgery focuses on removing excess skin or fat from the entire abdomen, a reverse tummy tuck is solely focused on removing excess skin and fat from the upper abdomen. The incision is made in the lower breast fold and also sometimes in the lower sternum, so the scars are barely visible, even in bikinis. With this procedure, it is also possible to reconnect the rectal muscle alongside removing the fat and excess skin. As with the other types of abdominoplasty, your tummy tuck surgeon in Manchester will be able to advise on whether a reverse tummy tuck is right for you.
