If you have a problem of loose skin and excess fat around your abdomen, you are likely to be a candidate for tummy tuck. Tummy tuck will remove the excess fat and tighten your abdominal wall. Tummy tuck is also advisable for a woman who has stretch marks from pregnancy and does not expect to have another pregnancy. This procedure aims to result to a shapely abdominal and waist area with a smoother and tighter skin for both male and female.
You should stay in Thailand at least 10 days to complete a whole process. On your arrival day in Thailand, you should stay in your hotel to relax from a long flight and have a surgery on the following day. Normally, tummy tuck will require 3 nights stay in the hospital per one area. Post operative check up and stitches removal will be done 7 days after the surgery.
