Beverly Hills Body Sculpting
Many women may often find after pregnancy that the abdominal muscles tend to separate, causing a condition known as rectus diastasis or general abdominal sagging and bulging.
Body Sculpting in Beverly Hills such as the High Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty can correct the appearance of this condition by creating a more shaplier contour of the abdomen and waistline. In the High Lateral Tension Tummy Tuck there is more tightening on the flanks which gives the waistline a tighter and curvier shape while in the regular tummy tuck the front and the sides of the abdomen are tightened equally.
This procedure is highly preferred over the traditional Tummy Tuck but is not as commonly performed due to lack of skilled certified plastic surgeons with this capability. The High Lateral Tension Tummy Tuck involves not only stitching the two vertical strips of the abdominal muscle back together, but also the muscles and fascia across the beltline as well. Another advantage of this procedure over the traditional Tummy Tuck is that the blood supply to the lower abdomen is well protected by the lateral suturing of the tissue surrounding the muscle.
Enhanced Appearance
For an even more sculpted look, Liposculpting can be performed months later following recovery of the High Lateral TT to reveal a more desired appearance when fitting into clothes. Overall, the High Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty produces a more trim, firm and athletic waistline than the standard Tummy Tuck.
