It’s a major fashion trend right now: crop tops that show off the abdomen. And this trend isn’t restricted just to teens; people of all ages are embracing this throwback trend. You might be wanting to get in on it yourself.
But is your tummy ready to show off in a midriff-bearing top? Or is it time to embrace abdominal contouring – one of the biggest spring plastic surgery trends?
The Basics of Abdominal Contouring
When it comes to getting the summer figure you want, there are plenty of options.Before we get in too deep, let’s cover the basics here. Abdominal contouring is anything that alters the shape of your tummy area. It can be surgical or non-surgical and it can address the skin, fat or muscles – or all three. The goal is to create better lines for a slimmer, smoother look.
Abdominal Contouring Options
So, what are your options when it comes to abdominal contouring? You have more than you might realize. Below are our top choices:
Tummy Tuck
Also called abdominoplasty, this procedure removes excess skin and fat while tightening the muscles. It can contour the whole abdomen, front and back.
Mommy Makeover
This is a combination procedure which can include a tummy tuck and any other aesthetic procedures you are interested in.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes excess fat from the targeted area. This can be used to etch the abdomen, defining the six pack, or just to remove fat in general. This fat can also be repurposed for fat transfer.
VelaShape
This non-surgical procedure uses radiofrequency waves to tighten skin and reduce cellulite.
