Abdominoplasty, popularly known as “tummy tuck” is a common operation that removes excess soft tissue, frequently resulting from drastic weight loss or pregnancy. Such patients tend to have a fold around the mid to lower third of the abdomen, that may be associated with underlying abdominal wall weakness, or even diastasis recti after pregnancy. Since this tissue has usually been stretched and will not respond to further weight loss or exercises, a tummy tuck surgically removes the excess tissue and tightens the abdominal wall leaving it flatter and firmer.
