A Tummy Tuck, also referred to as Abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure in the field of plastic surgery that aims to achieve a flatter abdomen by eliminating surplus skin and fat. In addition to this, the surgeon will also tighten the abdominal muscles to improve their appearance and balance.

The abdominal skin can experience excessive stretching due to various factors like pregnancy or obesity, leading to a decrease in its elasticity. In situations where the skin fails to naturally regain its firmness and reshape, a tummy tightening surgery, commonly known as Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty, becomes necessary.
