A tummy tuck in Kanpur is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen and to reposition the muscles in the abdominal wall. With pregnancies or severe weight fluctuations, the straight muscles of the abdominal wall tend to move away and, therefore, give the abdomen a rounder look. In these situations, the skin also loses elasticity, sometimes gains stretch marks, becomes more flaccid and forms folds that abdominoplasty allows to improve. When abdominoplasty is combined with liposuction, it is called Lipo-abdominoplasty.
