TUMMY TUCK
Abdominoplasty, also known as tummy tuck, is a major
surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat and
tightens abdominal wall muscles for a flatter-looking
tummy. This is ideal for those who are in relatively good
shape, but are bothered by remaining fat deposits or loose
abdominal skin that won’t respond to diet or exercise.
A full tummy tuck requires a horizontal incision from
between the belly button and the pubic hairline, with the
length and shape dependent on the amount of excess skin.
Once the abdominal skin is lifted, the underlying abdominal
muscles are repaired.

ARM LIFT
Arm tuck is a surgical procedure reduces the amount of
excess skin and fat in the upper arms in order to create
a more aesthetically-pleasing arm shape. It also aims
to tighten and smooth the underlying supportive tissue
to make the upper arm more defined. This method
particularly targets stubborn fat that cannot be removed
through diet and exercise alone.
