Abdomen Loose Skin

After pregnancy, the connective tissue in the abdomen (fascia) is usually tightened with sutures. The remaining skin is then repositioned to create a more toned look. Some abdomens are loose without pregnancy and hence need treatment.

Causes

  • Significant changes in weight
  • Pregnancy
  • Abdominal surgery, such as a C-section
  • Aging
  • Your natural body type

Indications

  • Fluid accumulation beneath the skin
  • Poor wound healing
  • Tissue damage
  • Changes in skin sensation
