The skin over the abdomen area can become stretched out after childbirth or weight loss. This skin does not retract to its original tightness and can be loose and saggy. The abdominal muscles also have stretched out and have not regained their normal position, giving the appearance of a "pot belly" no matter how many sit-ups a person does. An abdominoplasty of "tummy tuck" will correct both of these problems. The excess skin is removed and the muscles are tightened to firm up the abdomen. The tummy tuck will flatten the abdomen, the excess, loose skin will be gone and the muscles will retain their flattened look.

The surgery is done under general anesthesia and usually takes between three and fours hours. Before you are put under anesthesia Dr. Adams will have you stand and your incision line will be marked. The incision is a very long one and goes from hip to hip or longer in some cases. Once you are asleep, your skin is prepped and your are positioned for surgery. The incision is made and the skin is lifted up from the abdominal wall, all the way up to the xyphoid process. The umbilicus is released from its position in the skin and stays attached to the abdominal wall. The muscles are then tightened and the skin re-draped over the abdomen. The umbilicus is marked for a new position and the excess skin is removed. The skin is sutured in place with a combination of absorbable and non-absorbable sutures.
