Sometimes, even with exercise and a careful diet, the lower belly simply won't budge. Especially after childbirth, stretched skin, stretch marks and a belly fold hanging over a C-section scar are often not a matter of \"fat\" that dieting can burn, but of \"skin\" that has lost its elasticity. The surgery many people look into in this case is abdominoplasty<\/strong>, known abroad as a Tummy Tuck<\/strong> or abdominal lift (Abdominoplasty)<\/strong>\u2014 a surgery that removes sagging belly skin and fat.<\/p>\n

What is a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)? When you need it<\/h2>\n

Simply put, a tummy tuck is surgery that removes a sagging belly together with the skin<\/strong>. Excess skin and fat on the lower abdomen are removed, the abdominal muscles and fascia separated by pregnancy or obesity are stitched back together for a firm restoration, and the belly button is then naturally recreated. JK Plastic Surgery describes its approach, which combines improving muscle and fascia function with removing fat and sagging skin, as \"JK 4D Abdominoplasty\".<\/p>\n
