This type of surgery is suitable for you if you suffer from excess skin following liposuction or some other form of extensive weight loss. It is not a weight loss method on its own, and cannot be performed until your weight is stable.

How Does Abdominoplasty Work?
This operation takes around two-to-three hours and is carried out under a general anaesthetic. It usually requires a one to two night stay in hospital, though lower abdominoplasty, or mini-tummy tucks, can be done in a day surgery.

An incision is made just above the groin crease, and excess fat and skin is removed. The remaining skin is pulled down and repositioned, repairing the incision.

This usually means that the navel must be repositioned and thus results in a scar around the navel.
