Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

A lot of women, but also more and more men suffer from drooping stomach skin both in upper and in lower abdomen. It results in occurrence of unattractive folds and irregular surface consistent of abdomen skin.

As the reasons for it among others the increased fat depots, hormonal changes, after-pregnancy state, significant weight loss and the ageing process with genetic disposition can be mentioned.

Commonly three subgroups are distinguished between these contour deformations:

  • local fat deformation with lift-elastic skint
  • local fat deformation with drooping skin
  • loose skin excess

In many cases lift operation in abdomen area can be combined with discreet liposuction .
