Over time, fat can accumulate in the abdominal area and can result in sagging skin and weakened abdominal muscles.  Pitangui’s abdominoplasty aims to restore a flat and tight contour to the stomach area. This surgery can improve muscle function and correction of the body contour, leaving the skin more elasticated. There are different approaches depending on the patient’s individual needs. Skin fat can be removed alone, or abdominal muscles can be taken too. Often both are done through combining the procedures of liposuction and abdominoplasty.
