Abdominoplasty, or a tummy tuck, is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to tighten and tone the abdomen, by removing excess skin and strengthening the abdominal muscles.

While diet and exercise can be excellent weight loss tools, in many cases, they are not enough to improve skin elasticity or eliminate the excess skin that results from significant weight loss and multiple pregnancies. As a result, many patients turn to abdominoplasty surgery – a cosmetic procedure designed to contour the stomach, tighten weakened abdominal muscles and remove loosened skin.

Altering the shape and volume of your derriere to achieve a more flattering and curvy contour to the body can be done with either butt implants or a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). Although both procedures have a common goal of enhancing the shape and volume of the butt to improve the patient’s silhouette, different methods are used to achieve this goal. Butt implants are medical devices that are surgically inserted into the body, while a Brazilian Butt Lift is a butt augmentation procedure that uses the patient’s own fat tissues to produce natural-looking results.
The BBL offers advantages that the implants […]
Many assume that after a tummy tuck they will want to take it easy, avoid physical activity, and going out in public in general. Surprisingly though, the opposite is usually true!

This is usually within one to two weeks post operatively, a time when patients often find themselves with more energy and motivation to be active as well.
It is important to mention that your surgeon will explain their exact timeline and postoperative recommendations with respect to returning to normal […]
