Abdominoplasty in Barranquilla, ColombiaDr. Samir Janne Hasbun · Plastic surgeon

What it involves

This is the operation indicated when skin has lost its elasticity and the rectus muscles have separated — common after pregnancy or major weight loss. Liposuction alone resolves neither problem. It leaves a low horizontal scar, designed to sit hidden under underwear, and is frequently combined with liposuction of the flanks.
