Even though abdominoplasty is a low-risk elective surgery, yet still a surgery. Tummy tuck must not be confused with liposuction or considered an alternative to weight loss. The procedure is safe for both men and women who have good health and stable weight. However, people who are obese and have undergone a drastic weight loss can also use the procedure to tighten loose skin and shape up their abdominal muscles. People who had clotting issues or surgical complications previously are also not ideal candidates for the tummy tuck. Finally, anyone taking medication, anticoagulants, or any supplements, do share it with your doctor.
