Not everyone craves a bulging ‘six pack’ and rock hard abs, but most people would like to have a flatter stomach and to fit into those sexy new jeans.
That’s why tummy tucks have rocketed in popularity over the past five years, both in the UK and abroad.
A tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal region, so anyone with sagging skin around their stomach can benefit from a slimmed-down figure and a confidence boost.
Cosmetic surgery experts Why Go Abroad have the following advice for men and women considering the treatment.
“An abdominoplasty can make a dramatic difference to your profile, making you slimmer and more toned,” said a spokesman. “It’s perfect for producing beautifully flat stomachs that can give you the swimsuit or bikini body you’ve always wanted.”
Who are ideal candidates for tummy tucks?
A healthy diet and exercise should always be the first step to flatten your stomach. However, if you have been unable to shift excess fat or skin in this way, an abdominoplasty may be for you.
Tummy tucks can prove especially popular if you have:
- Given birth – pregnancy can stretch the skin and muscles to such a degree that they do not return to their previous shape naturally.
- Lost weight – people who have lost a significant amount of weight can be left with saggy skin in the abdominal area.
- Lost tone – as you grow older, skin can lose elasticity.
Why Go Abroad offers tummy tuck prices from as cheap as £4,195 and you can also see before and after pictures to see whether it could be for you.
