Reduce the size and Trim your Waistline

The reason for the upsurge in tummy tuck surgery over the last several years is that it is a solution to a problem that is unaffected by traditional weight loss methods. As we age, we lose elasticity in our skin. If we undergo significant weight gain, our skin can be stretched considerably. When we lose weight, our skin doesn’t always revert to normal.

The same thing can occur with pregnancy and childbirth. A woman’s tummy can be stretched, and once the baby is born, mommy may be left with a “pooch” or drooping skin. No amount of sit-ups will reduce excess skin. No weight loss diet will have an impact. Therefore, people turn more and more to a tummy tuck to achieve what diet and regular exercise will not, and that is a trim waistline.

How To Remove Excess Skin After Weight Loss?

You can opt for various procedures when you want to remove excess skin after a massive weight loss. Dr. Patrick Hsu listed down these nonsurgical and surgical procedures in this article.

Getting Your Ideal Body

Your surgeon makes an incision from hip to hip between your pubic area and your navel. The incision will leave a scar, but your underwear or bikini bottom will hide it. They will then begin to remove the excess skin and fat. If needed, the abdominal muscles are tightened. After this, the remaining skin is pulled together, and the incision is sutured, leaving you a flatter tummy.

They have a great deal of experience performing cosmetic surgery, thus ensuring that the procedure is as safe and effective as possible.
