Our Procedure
A Tummy Tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to create a firmer, flatter abdomen by removing excess skin and fat while tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles. This comprehensive approach addresses issues that diet and exercise alone cannot fix, such as loose skin after pregnancy or significant weight loss.
Unlike liposuction which only removes fat, a tummy tuck addresses all three components of abdominal contour concerns: excess skin, stubborn fat deposits, and weakened muscles (diastasis recti). The procedure can dramatically improve your body profile, eliminate the "pooch" or overhanging skin, and restore confidence in your appearance.
At Neoderma Clinica, our experienced plastic surgeons customize each tummy tuck to meet your specific needs, whether you require a full abdominoplasty, mini tummy tuck, or extended procedure. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and requires dedicated recovery time to ensure optimal results.

A tummy tuck addresses three concerns: excess skin, fat deposits, and weakened abdominal muscles. It involves removing excess skin and fat while surgically tightening the abdominal muscles. Liposuction only removes fat deposits without addressing loose skin or muscle laxity. For patients with good skin elasticity and no muscle separation who only need fat removal, liposuction may be sufficient. Those with loose skin or muscle separation will benefit more from a tummy tuck.
