A Beginner’s Guide to a Laser Tummy Tuck with impartial, expert information and advice.

With the growing number of cosmetic laser treatments available today, you could be forgiven for thinking that the ‘Laser Tummy Tuck’, or ‘Laser Abdominoplasty’. is a new non-surgical method to reduce excess skin, tighten abdominal muscles or remove excess fat from the stomach region. Unfortunately this technology has yet to be invented and the term ‘Laser Tummy Tuck’ is, more often than not, simply a buzz-word employed by cosmetic surgery clinics to lure patients.

Some clinics however do offer a genuine Laser Tummy Tuck, which primarily differs from a traditional Abdominoplasty surgery by the fact that lasers are used to create the incisions during your cosmetic surgery, which are generally quicker to administer than using a scalpel.

Other clinics use the term Laser Abdominoplasty to refer to Laser Liposis (or Laser Lipolysis), commonly known as ‘Smart-Lipo’, which uses heat-based lasers to ‘melt’ stubborn fat deposits that is then absorbed and passed out of the body. This process has a closer relation to Liposuction surgery than an Abdominoplasty as it does not involve skin or muscle tightening.
