Unfortunately, diet and exercise are often not enough to give you a flat stomach. When the skin and abdominal muscles become stretched due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or aging, surgery is often the only method of correction. A tummy tuck tightens excess loose skin and removes excess fat. Additionally, tummy tuck surgery can repair separated muscles, which exercises cannot do.

The cost of a tummy tuck varies depending on whether you are having a mini or complete tummy tuck, the complexity of the procedure, and whether it is being combined with other procedures, among other factors. The range for a tummy tuck is typically between $7,000 and $8,000. For the best possible surgical outcome, it's important to consider your surgeon's credentials above cost.
