Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure aimed at reshaping and toning the abdominal area. It involves removing excess skin and fat, and repairing separated muscles to create a flatter, firmer abdomen. This procedure can be cosmetic or reconstructive, addressing issues such as abdominal abnormalities caused by pregnancy, obesity, weight loss, or trauma.
While abdominoplasty can deliver permanent results, significant weight fluctuations or pregnancy can diminish its effects. It’s not a substitute for weight loss or exercise, and consulting a qualified plastic surgeon is essential to determine if it’s the right choice for you
During your consultation, the surgeon will discuss how the surgery is performed and what the possible risks of surgery are, and how these would be managed; this allows you to make an informed decision. A second consultation is done closer to the surgery date, to ensure the right choices have been made for your unique needs and desires.
Abdominoplasty fees can attract a partial rebate from Medicare and your health insurance if it is eligible for an item code. You can discuss this further with your surgeon.
No decision to have surgery should be taken lightly, and our surgeons will be more than happy to answer the many questions you may have, and to help you decide whether breast reduction is right for you.
