case 1135Although women are the primary demographic to seek out plastic surgery, more and more men these days are deciding to improve the appearance of their midsection with abdominoplasty  as well. Here are the top reasons men are heading to plastic surgeons for tummy tucks.

1. Fine-Tune Weight-Loss Success

Men who have worked hard to lose weight and reach a healthy target goal can feel frustrated if loose, flabby stomach skin remains behind to keep them from feeling confident about their bodies. If you’ve put in all that effort to slim down, you deserve to feel confident in any situation. A tummy tuck is an ideal way to eliminate excess skin and firm up underlying abdominal muscles to create a sleek, sexy look that can bring you closer to that coveted six-pack.

2. Repair Separated Abdominal Muscles

Over time or due to certain medical conditions, the stomach muscles can become separated, leaving a gap down the center of the abdominal wall. While it’s commonly understood that a tummy tuck involves the removal of excess stomach skin, many are surprised that the tightening of the stomach muscles to correct any separation that may have occurred is also included. This is often referred to as diastasis recti repair, but really involves the same steps as a tummy tuck.

3. Improve Skin Laxity Caused by Aging

Even men who have never had major fluctuations in their weight can be great candidates for a tummy tuck. The decline in collagen levels that naturally occurs with age can contribute to a loose, saggy belly as the skin loses elasticity and firmness. A tummy tuck can tighten and smooth the abdominal skin, restoring a more youthful, athletic appearance again.
