Tummy Tuck Beverly Hills – Eliminating Unwanted Flab

An abdominoplasty, or a tummy tuck as it is most commonly referred to, is one of the most common forms of plastic surgery. Essentially, it makes the abdomen more firm and removes sagging flab from the mid-section. While it is commonly performed on women for a variety of different reasons, men undergo the procedure regularly. I realize that some people scoff at plastic surgery, but the truth is that it can help improve your self esteem, happiness, sexuality, and more. And in the case of a tummy tuck Los Angeles, it can address issues that can't be dealt with otherwise.

Pregnant women's stomachs grow throughout their pregnancy. There is really no getting around that fact, no matter who you are. And it's true that some women look absolutely radiant as an expectant mother. But after childbirth, as the stomach recedes to its normal level, there is often loose tissue or skin and leftover flab that can be nearly impossible to exercise away. This, unfortunately, doesn't add quite the same radiance as a baby bump does. A Beverly Hills tummy tuck surgeon can help you lose this unwanted flab and regain the trim, fit body that you had before you became pregnant.

Another reason to think about a Los Angeles tummy tuck is to help you after weight loss. Losing weight can help you improve your overall health and well being, and make you feel better about yourself. Nothing feels better than being able to announce your massive weight loss success. But like the shrinkage of a woman's belly after childbirth, large amounts of weight loss can leave you with stomach flab and lose, sagging skin that you may not be able to get rid of no matter how hard you try. This is where a tummy tuck can come in handy.

During a tummy tuck, your surgeon will make a pair of incisions in your abdomen and lift your skin to reveal the muscles and tissues in need of tightening. The surgeon uses tight, strong sutures to tighten the muscles walls. Excess skin and fat are removed, and the remaining tissue is tightened as the incisions are closed up. Very often, liposuction is used as a sculpting tool to help refine the areas worked on. Women undergo a tummy tuck Beverly Hills quite often, and the results can be amazing. Whether you've just had a child or simply want to firm up stubborn flab, this simple surgery is worth considering.
