What is an Extended Tummy Tuck?
An extended tummy tuck goes beyond a standard abdominoplasty. It not only tightens the abdominal muscles and removes excess skin but also addresses the flanks and sides of the waistline. This technique provides a more comprehensive contouring, making it ideal for individuals who have undergone significant weight loss or have loose skin extending around the torso.
Benefits of an Extended Tummy Tuck
- Restores abdominal muscle tone
- Removes excess skin and fat for a slimmer profile
- Improves the appearance of stretch marks in the lower abdomen
- Creates a more defined waistline and natural body contour
