\t\t\t\tPregnancy, lifestyle or \"shutterstock_63905251\"aging may have left you with the appearance of imperfections in your tummy that just won\u2019t go away with diet and exercise. A tummy tuck<\/a> can eliminate sagging stomach skin, tighten separated abdominal muscles and remove stubborn fatty tissue. If you find yourself unhappy with the appearance of your midsection, deciding on the right tummy tuck for you can be the first step toward achieving a winning waistline.<\/p>\n

Candidates for a Tummy Tuck<\/h2>\n

The most common tummy tuck patients are women who have been pregnant or individuals who have achieved significant weight loss. In both cases, baggy skin, loose stomach muscles and excess fatty tissue are issues that frequently remain behind despite your best efforts to get in shape. However, a tummy tuck is not a weight loss procedure, so be sure to reach your target weight first for the best results.<\/p>\n

A full tummy tuck can address the entire upper and lower abdomen. By removing some amount of fatty tissue before drawing the two halves of your abdominals together, your surgeon can create a slimmer shape for your midsection before tightening your stomach skin and excising any extra.<\/p>\n

The mini tummy tuck is a less complex procedure that addresses the area of the stomach below the belly button only. As such, the mini tummy tuck can be a great option for patients with mild skin sagging and minimal abdominal separation confined to the lower abs. A mini tummy tuck can create beautiful results in the right candidates, but if your needs are more extensive, bear in mind that a full tuck likely will deliver better results.\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
