Loose skin: In a process called redraping, your surgeon removes some of the loose, stretched skin from your abdomen and pulls the remaining skin taut for a smooth, proportionate contour. Performed while you are under general anesthesia, abdominoplasty typically treats 3 specific areas of concern: Our patients choose tummy tuck surgery, technically called abdominoplasty, at our metro Atlanta practice to renew their abdominal areas. Many patients make good candidates for a combination of both treatments, which can be determined after a personal consultation with the plastic surgeon. A tummy tuck is appropriate when there is loose, stretched skin and/or separated abdominal muscles. Liposuction removes fat, making it good for patients who simply have a belly bulge and relatively elastic abdominal skin, meaning it will “bounce back” after underlying fat is removed. While liposuction and a tummy tuck both can improve the appearance of your midsection, these plastic surgery procedures have different purposes.
