Abdominoplasty

The increase of fat in the abdomen and sagging of the skin of the belly is, in most cases in women, caused after pregnancy and is often a good case for undergoing abdominoplasty. This surgery requires the removal of the excess sagging skin and fat tissue from the lower part of the belly. The skin is separated from the cartilage of the lower rib. The excess skin is then removed and the muscle wall strengthened.
