you might have sagging skin in your abdomen. A
tummy tuck can address this by removing the
excess skin and creating a smoother, more toned
look. Postpartum If your pregnancy has caused
stretching of your abdominal muscles and skin,
resulting in looseness and a protruding stomach,
you may be an ideal candidate for a tummy tuck.

muscles and skin, resulting in a flatter and more
toned midsection. However, it's vital to
