Abdominoplasty / Tummy Tuck in Adelaide
Norwood Day Surgery offer Tummy Tucks in Adelaide as one of their surgery options and With increasing participation in outdoor activities and less restrictive general attitudes towards revealing styles, greater attention is directed to the size and shape of our bodies. We are also more conscious of our weight as it relates to general health and social acceptance. It is not at all surprising, therefore, to find greater interest in those surgical procedures that can be selectively employed for figure improvement.
Surgical procedures of this kind are not directed toward weight reduction, which is still a dietary problem. Surgery does, however, afford an opportunity to correct some of those conditions which result from earlier obesity and pregnancy. There are also some situations, familial in nature that may be considered for correction.

What is a tummy tuck?
Abdominoplasty is an operation performed to remove excess fatty tissue and skin folds in the mid to lower abdominal region, most often accompanied by stretching of all the abdominal structures resulting from pregnancies. Diet and exercise alone cannot provide correction, since the deformity stems primarily from structural change. Repair may include tightening of the abdominal supportive structures and surgical removal of the excess skin folds.
How is a tummy tuck done?
There are many variables and several methods that can be employed. The basic operation involves raising the abdominal skin and fatty tissue, stretching it in a downward direction, and removing the excess with suture line closure within the so-called “bikini line”. Repair of muscular supportive structures is done at the same time. The operation frequently requires repositioning the navel to a higher level.
