Tummy Tuck is a cosmetic surgery which many people don’t tend to talk about as much, compared to other cosmetic procedures such as breast implants and face lifts etc. Many people assume that tummy tucks are for women only and they do tend to be related to women who have had children and need to regain back their pre-baby bodies. However, this isn’t the sole case – tummy tucks can be for both men and women, who choose to under go this surgery for a number of reasons. Here are our top reasons why people choose abdominoplasty (tummy tuck.)
‘If I could turn back time’
With a tummy tuck you essentially can turn back time. We all miss those younger days, when we took our tight and flat stomachs for granted, its no secret the older both men and women get our stomachs begin to thicken and become more flabby and quite unsightly. Undergoing abdominoplasty will allow the stomach to be tightened, access skin removed & get shaped back to your former slender shape.
Remove my scars and stretch marks
If you have previously had any sort of surgery on your abdomen or had a baby, it would have left scars and stretch marks. For example taking out an appendix, having a baby due to a C-section, address a hernia, whatever it may be, surgery on your stomach would have left some sort of scar or mark. Having a tummy tuck can reduce and remove these scars and marks.
Diets & exercise cant always help you
We can diet & exercise until we are blue in the face but no matter how hard we try, sometimes the damage of being overweight and/or aging can take its toll on our body. Yes we completely agree that you need to maintain a healthy diet & exercise throughout our life, but some areas need a tummy tuck & sometimes maybe liposuction as well. But that would be assessed during your consultation with the medical team.
Helps get rid of access skin after weight loss.
Majority of the time, this is the most common reason people get a tummy tuck. Serious weight gain permanently stretches your skin, which once lost, the skin has been stretched that much it will not go back to normal. A tummy tuck will 9 times out of 10 be the answer to get rid of the access skin. After all, you have worked hard to loose the weight, why not get a tummy tuck to tighten it all up and show off your slim new body.
Gain more confidence
Undergoing a tummy tuck procedure will make your figure more streamline and allow your clothes to fit and feel better. We have had a few cases where people have felt self conscious as their clothes don’t fit them like they used too, as well as disliking how their body now ‘hangs.’ Having a tummy tuck can help gain back a clients confidence, allowing them to be more socialable and live their lives more than usual.
