Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck surgery is designed for individuals who desire tight, contoured midsections. 

Depending on the needs of his patient, Dr. Moodley may tighten underlying muscles while removing excess tissue. Most tummy tucks are performed under general anaesthesia and require overnight care. This surgery offers some of the most dramatic body contouring enhancement, with results that will last forever if you maintain a healthy lifestyle.

A tummy tuck is almost always combined with liposuction of the midsection. This combination achieves a much greater aesthetic outcome. 

Abdominoplasty is appropriate for both men and women that would like to tighten and flatten the midsection. The best candidates might include:

• Older, overweight individuals with folds of loose skin
• Those with a significant amount of loose skin due to a large amount of weight loss
• People suffering from the retention of excess fat despite their diet and exercise efforts
• Women who have stretched abdominal muscles and skin post-pregnancy. 

Dr. Moodley usually advises patients to pursue surgery after they have met their weight loss goals or when they have completed their family. 

Tummy tuck revision surgery is a procedure designed to produce the results you were hoping for from your original tummy tuck. Patients seeking revision surgery either didn’t get their desired outcome from the first surgery, or they have seen changes in their body since that operation that have altered their new contour.  

For patients that require minimal correction, Dr Moodley performs a  mini tummy tuck. A mini tummy tuck uses a shorter incision, with or without the moving of the belly button and is less invasive overall. This means you can get the correction you need with a quicker, more comfortable recovery process in many cases.
