Using abdominoplasty, Dr. Lyos is able to tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess fatty tissue and skin to improve the body\u2019s contour. Liposuction is commonly used in conjunction with abdominoplasty to produce optimal results.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that abdominoplasty is not a form of weight loss.
