Do you want a smoother and firmer abdominal contour? If yes, abdominoplasty can help! Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that helps reduce the fat in the abdomen area and improves the quality of your life. Besides instilling confidence in YOU, it helps you to embrace the best version of yourself.
As per Dr. Mansher Singh, the expert of abdominoplasty in New York and Beverly Hills, the surgery is performed by eliminating excess fat and redundant skin, tightening the muscles in your abdominal wall, and repositioning your umbilicus. There are two types of Abdominoplasty namely Trraditional Abdominoplasty and Mini Abdominoplasty with different variants such as fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty, corset abdominoplasty, and belt lipectomy. Another subset of abdominoplasty is called reverse abdominoplasty.
In the traditional abdominoplasty, the surgeon makes an incision starting from one hipbone to another hipbone followed by contouring of skin and muscle. It involves tightening of skin and muscles both below and above the belly button. Whereas in mini-abdominoplasty; the skin and muscle are tightened only below the belly button. Regardless of the type of procedure, the incision is hidden in your bikini and is imperceptible. Depending on your candidacy, Abdominoplasty can also be combined with liposuction, a.k.a. Lipoabdominoplasty, to give you the perfect result.
You might be a good candidate for reverse abdominoplasty if you have excess upper abdominal skin and fat. In this procedure, a horizontal incision is made under your bra line and excess skin and fat tissue are removed to achieve an ideal abdominal contour. The incisions will be hidden under your bra.
Dr. Singh further adds that the structure of the abdominal wall of every patient is unique; hence adopting a cookie-cutter approach isn’t appropriate. He and his team believe in “customized patient care” to give the best results of tummy tuck to the patients.
