What does the tummy tuck procedure involve? A tummy tuck procedure can help to remove excess fat and skin, and tighten muscle in the abdomen area. It is often combined with liposuction to achieve a more dramatic result. The tummy tuck is done through an incision that extends from hip to hip across the bikini line. The surgeon will remove any unwanted fat and skin from the navel to the bikini line. Book your tummy tuck free consultation now! New York City tummy tuck plastic surgery!
