ABDOMINOPLASTY
It is the procedure by which we eliminate all the excess skin and flaccidity of the abdomen through an incision generally 9 cm from the base of the genitals (penis or beginning of the vaginal labia majora), this with the purpose that the resulting scar is hidden under the underwear or bathing suit that the patient uses. Generally I perform my own modified navel technique without external scar, correction of the diastasis or separation of the rectus abdominis muscles is performed, achieving a firm and toned abdomen.
