Breast Reduction Surgery: A Comprehensive Overview by Dr. Kantamneni Lakshmi

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure aimed at removing excess fat and skin from the abdomen, while tightening the underlying muscles for a flatter, more toned appearance. The surgery involves making an incision along the lower abdomen, lifting the skin, and tightening the muscles before removing excess tissue. While abdominoplasty offers impressive results, it may come with side effects such as swelling, bruising, and temporary numbness. Recovery typically takes several weeks, with patients advised to avoid strenuous activities during this time. Results are generally long-lasting with proper post-surgical care.
