What is Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)?

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical and body contouring procedure in which the fat and excess skin around the abdomen are removed and, when needed, muscles in the abdominal wall are tightened with sutures to create a more toned abdomen. Tummy Tuck can be combined with other body contouring cosmetic procedures.

Our plastic surgeons will help our patients find the best procedures that suit their desires. 

For example, if you are looking to remove a small part of your lower abdomen, a mini tummy tuck will be sufficient. Patients who need to improve the shape and size of both the lower and upper abdomen may need a full tummy tuck. A more extensive type of abdominoplasty known as extended tummy tuck is designed to contour the entire abdomen and hips.

What is Belt Lipectomy (BL)?

A belt lipectomy is a surgery to remove the fat and excess skin around your belt line. A plastic surgeon removes loose skin and extra areas of tissue during the procedure to create a more toned look in your lower body.

What is FDL?

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is an effective cosmetic procedure that helps remove fat that you can’t manage to get rid of through exercise and diet.

Plastic surgeons use this procedure to remove fat from your hips, stomach, thighs, buttocks, back, arms, and neck to improve their shape. Liposuction can be done in one procedure or combined with other plastic surgeries, including breast reductions or tummy tucks.
