Abdominoplasty is a common operation to improve the appearance of the lower abdomen. After childbirth, the abdominal muscles and the abdominal skin gets stretched out. The stretch marks and loose skin is disturbing to the patient. The abdominoplasty helps to improve the appearance of the skin by removing the stretch marks, re-draping the skin into a more acceptable position, improving the abdominal contour, and trying to improve on the belly button aesthetics when possible.
