Basics of a tummy tuck<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

After pregnancies or weight loss, the prolonged stretching of the tissue can result in a sagging, sometimes even drooping abdominal wall.<\/p>

The fact that the overstretched skin no longer recedes is extremely frustrating, especially after weight loss, which is often a painstaking process. Even with a lot of sport, targeted muscle training and discipline, the appearance of the stomach can only be improved to a limited extent.<\/p>

Many women no longer dare to go to the beach in a bikini, and male patients are bothered by the constant slipping of the waistband.\u00a0In addition, the straight abdominal muscles (= rectus diastasis) may be stretched out or the skin may show stretch marks, so-called striae.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In addition to figure problems, typical symptoms include a tendency to sweat, reddening of the skin and inflammation underneath these skin folds.\u00a0However, excess weight in combination with decreasing skin firmness can also lead to a sagging of the abdominal wall tissue, which is then referred to as a fat apron.<\/span><\/p>

A tummy tuck can help with these problems. During this operation, excess skin and fatty tissue is removed from the lower abdomen and the usually smooth skin of the upper abdomen is tightened over the entire abdomen. If rectus diastasis is present, the underlying abdominal muscles are also tightened.<\/p>

The aim is to restore and model a harmonious, natural-looking abdominal contour. A prerequisite for a good result is the quality of the skin. In smokers, the skin is often inelastic and blood circulation is restricted. This can often lead to wound healing disorders.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
