Is a Tummy Tuck for You?

Ideal for the individual who is in moderately good shape but frustrated by excessive yet stubborn fat deposits, tummy tucks represent a viable slenderizing alternative. Over the last half decade, the popularity of tummy tucks (abdominoplasties) has tripled.

Prevalent Reasons for a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Although the decision to have a tummy tuck is a personal one, here are the most prevalent reasons patients have the procedure:

1. Multiple Pregnancies

Multiple childbirths can stretch the abdomen, making it impossible for the stomach to rebound to its original or normal size. Quite often skin loses its elasticity. A tummy tuck can drastically improve the appearance of a saggy, protruding stomach.

2. Moderate Obesity - Unresponsive to Diet and Weight Loss

When overweight to slightly obese patients try to lose weight, their body works similar to the mother who has endured multiple childbirths. The stretched skin has lost its resilience. Once skin has been stretched beyond its capacity, it loses its elasticity to return to it original shape. With a tummy tuck, the appearance of abdominal protrusion is diminished.

3. To Achieve More Confidence

Your outward appearance corroborates your mood, confidence and overall outlook on life. Because the inability to lose weight can be disappointing, a tummy tuck can offer hope and help build confidence. More importantly, many patients use tummy tucks as an inspirational tool -- to make positive lifestyle changes.
