2. A tummy tuck is designed to reshape the contour of the belly area when skin
elasticity has been lost, and the abdominal muscles weakened due to extreme
body changes. The procedure takes about 1 to 5 hours and it is performed under
general anesthesia. During the procedure, the plastic surgeon disconnects the skin
from the underlying tissue, suture the abdominal tissue, and cut away any excess
flesh from the area.
3. Here are some additional medical benefits of tummy tuck procedure:
4. 1. Easy to maintain weight loss
Bariatric patients who go under the knife to reduce the size of the stomach in an
effort to lose weight are more likely to keep the weight off post-surgery when they
combine it with a tummy tuck. In fact, patients that combine the two procedures
regain an average of only half kg a year as opposed to 2 kg a year for bariatric
patients that didn’t have a body contouring procedure performed. Researchers
argue that, because of these findings, tummy tucks may be an essential aspect of
weight loss surgery.
5. 2. Posture improvement
Carrying excess skin combined with weakened abdominal muscles can lead to a
condition called lordosis, commonly known as “sway back”. This is sometimes
accompanied by some back pain. Since a tummy tuck will strengthen and tighten
the abdominal muscles, the spine gets supported, and the patient can stand up a
little bit straighter. Any back pain that may have been caused by the previous
condition should also be diminished or alleviated entirely.
6. 3. Increased Exercise Tolerance
Excess skin and weak abs make exercise difficult. A tummy tuck can reinvigorate
the patient’s love of running, walking, or other aerobic activities. It is well-known
that exercise is great for the heart and a person’s general well-being. Frequent
exercise can also help to retain weight loss.
7. With all of these medical benefits and the boost to one’s self-esteem, it is easy to
see why so many man and woman would opt for this life-changing cosmetic
surgery procedure.
