Should I get tummy tuck?

Patients who are good candidates for tummy tuck surgery are those who have loose, damaged abdominal skin as well as abdominal muscles that have been separated due to weight loss and/or pregnancy.  The tummy tuck surgery will remove the damaged skin from below the belly button and the surgeon will tighten the abdominal muscles as well.  Some patients who may want liposuction instead of tummy tuck should be examined to make sure that liposuction will achieve the results they want.
