Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty

  • Tummy tuck is a procedure in which excess fat is removed with liposuction, the excess skin from the lower part of tummy is removed with/without tightening of the separated-loose abdominal muscles to create an abdominal profile that is smooth, firm and younger-looking desired by the patient. Dr Atodaria, a Cosmetic & Plastic Surgeons from Surat, Gujarat, India is performing tummy tuck since 1993. Well, the best way to have a good abdominal profile is to have a good diet along with exercise, but sometimes these may not help us achieve our goals.
