The Abdominoplastia (Tummy Tuck) Procedure

- Muscle Repair: The abdominal muscles may be tightened and repaired if they have become weakened or separated.
- Skin Redraping: The remaining skin is carefully redraped and sutured into place for a taut appearance.
- Closure: All incisions are meticulously closed using sutures or surgical adhesives.
- Recovery: After the surgery, you will be given specific instructions on how to care for the incisions and manage your recovery process.
