Everyone wants a flat, even, firm abdomen. Pregnancies, weight gain and weight loss can leave a woman's abdomen stretched, scarred, loose and saggy. Many men also suffer from unsightly fat around the stomach, waist and love-handles. Both men and women have areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. Body contouring is the surgical alteration of the body shape or form. Liposuction removes excess fat, tummy tucks remove excess fat and skin, and tighten the stomach muscles, and thigh and buttock lifts recontour the thighs and buttocks.
If you are considering a medical procedure to enhance your appearance, these web pages will give you a basic understanding of common procedures. These pages are intended only as an introduction.
