Abdominoplasty surgery can tighten muscles that have been separated and weakened by pregnancy, and may improve the appearance of stretch marks. Also commonly known as "tummy tuck," this surgery is designed to firm and smooth the abdomen, remove excess abdominal skin, reduce fat, and tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. Plastic surgery statistics reported in 2007 by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons revealed that tummy tuck was fourth in popularity among women.

There are many variations both to the design of the incisions and the tummy tuck technique itself. A horizontal incision is usually placed just above the pubic area. If a patient has loose skin above the navel, the plastic surgeon may make an incision around the navel so that redundant skin above it can be pulled down. The procedure may include tightening of the underlying abdominal muscles using sutures. Sometimes liposuction may be used alone, or in conjunction with abdominoplasty, to remove abdominal fat.

Be are honest with your plastic surgeon about your medical history and your goals for the surgery, and choose a surgeon who is experienced and qualified to perform tummy tuck in Montana. No surgery is without some level of risk, and your surgeon should explain all of the side effects and possible risks prior to surgery.
