What is Abdominoplasty?

A abdominoplasty flat and well-toned abdomen is something many of us strive for through exercise and weight control. Sometimes these methods cannot achieve our goals. This surgery flattens the abdomen by removing extra fat, skin and tightening muscles in your abdominal wall.

What is the Recovery Time?

Recovery will take several weeks. Swelling begins to disappear in a matter of weeks and resolve completely in a few months. You will have to restrict exercise and other activity as advised by our doctor.
