Look your best with a tummy tuck

Look your best with a tummy tuck

Flat, well-toned abs is something everyone wants to make their body look better. When the body does not respond to dieting and exercise there still lies that excess layer of flab in front of the abdomen. Depriving the body of food will not help to diminish the saggy skin either. Pregnancy and massive weight loss can leave the abdominal area with excess loose skin that is unresponsive to even the strictest diet and exercise routine. So what options are Beverly Hills and Los Angeles women and men left with? The solution is a tummy tuck.

A tummy tuck, technically known as abdominoplasty, is a procedure that will remove excess fat and skin from the abdomen. The abdominal skin is elevated and then pulled down, and then the excess skin is removed. Loose skin is caused by severe weight loss and post-pregnancy, and sometimes trimming the fat can leave all of that skin and remaining fat in the abdomen. In some instances, the abdominal muscles become separated and weaken when the stomach walls enlarge. With a tummy tuck the body will regain its defined shape and smoother and firmer skin.

A new and improved version of the tummy tuck can do even more for a refined body shape. Lipoabdominoplasty is a procedure that combines liposuction and a tummy tuck to enhance results from the tummy tuck. Plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Vladimir Grigoryants frequently uses this method  to give his patients the best results possible. The procedure sucks out the fat from the flanks of the stomach, arms, back and thighs as the tummy tuck is performed. Most people do not know who is considered good candidates for such a procedure, but it is simple to determine .

The most common causes of a flabby and sagging stomach include:

·         Pregnancy

·         Aging

·         Significant fluctuations in weight

·         Heredity

·         Prior surgery

According to a report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, tummy tuck surgeries have increased 70 percent since 2000. This indicates that more and more people are trying to maintain the slim body size that they had as they were growing up. Diet and exercise is something that does not always get the job done, but the benefits of a tummy tuck can be life changing.

People who are unhappy with their bodies often experience embarrassment and a drop in confidence. A tummy tuck can help improve the self-confidence of the individual and give them a greater outlook on life. After healing from the procedure, patients no longer feel unattractive or upset with themselves. Their clothes no longer reveal pudgy bellies and love handles. They can put on that bathing suit and reveal their bodies at the beach in the summer. Their confidence increases and they feel better capable of taking on whatever life throws at them.

After the tummy tuck patients no longer feel shy about their bodies and now feel comfortable socializing. Their bodies have given them the ability to be more outgoing and meet other people at public outings with friends and family. They take more time to go out to more intimate events and feel more comfortable leaving their comfort zone.

The results of the procedure even give patients the urge to try new things. Upon seeing the new body that they have been striving for they have the energy to get out and learn how to snowboard, go surfing or enjoying a three-mile nature hike. It can turn them into the life of the party whenever they are out with their friends dancing at a nightclub.

There are a lot of things holding people back from gaining that confidence back. They often wonder if they are even considered a good candidate for a tummy tuck. People never know until they get the information that they need. It is normal to feel shy about a saggy stomach but having a surgery is beneficial to improve life.

Abdominoplasty is a good option for patients if they:

·         Are physically healthy and at a stable weight

·         Have realistic expectations about their body shape

·         Are finished having children

·         Do not smoke


Everyone has the right to have a slim and trim waistline. People do not need to feel ashamed about getting work done. These days it is as common as going to the bank. Stop dreaming about having a good life. Get the look that makes the best come out to play. Continue that healthy diet and trim the fat that makes that slim body shine bright in the sun.
