When Should I Consider Tummy Tuck Surgery?

November 8th, 2019 | Posted in: Tummy Tuck |

You have probably heard that “beauty is only skin deep.”

While this adage may be true, it is often what is under the skin that influences a person’s appearance.

Today, many of us are unsatisfied with the shape and size of our abdomen.

Despite persistent dieting, exhaustive exercise, and other hard-to-follow regimens, stubborn fat deposits seem entirely immune.

Fortunately, there is a surgical way to address these conditions and achieve a more defined, flatter, and youthful-looking abdominal region.

Commonly referred to as abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck is a popular plastic surgery procedure used to tighten overly-stretched abdominal muscles and skin, creating a smoother, flatter appearance.

What Is Tummy Tuck Surgery?

Whether your midsection has been stretched out by factors such as weight gain, weight loss, or pregnancy, the abdomen usually fails to return to its original shape.

Tummy tuck surgery can tighten the abdominal muscles and remove sagging, excess skin, and accumulated fatty tissue.

As an added benefit of this procedure, the waistline will even become smaller.

When considering tummy tuck surgery, we recommend that you consult a plastic surgeon who is experienced like Dr. Chiu to assure you achieve the results you desire.

What Can Tummy Tuck Do for Me?

Increased Self-Esteem

Excess fat that has developed in the midsection can cause both men and women to feel self-conscious about how they look.

Hanging skin on the stomach can also cause many people to feel they cannot fully enjoy themselves when they are out in public.

Tummy tuck surgery not only creates a flattering and attractive stomach, but it can also boost your confidence to make you feel good about your figure.

More Clothing Options

Many patients who struggle with an abnormal stomach pooch also find themselves struggling to fit into a certain type of clothing.

Others feel embarrassed to shed their clothes and slip into a bathing suit when at the pool or beach because of their midsection.

Tummy tuck surgery can help you achieve a slimmer and toned midsection to provide you with more clothing options.

You no longer have to hide behind loose, baggy pieces of clothing or feel the need to shy away from fun activities when you can show off your new, sexy figure.
