Abdominoplasty is the cosmetic surgery of the abdomen that typically involves removing excess skin fat and tightening of abdominal muscles. The procedure is commonly requested to restore pre-pregnancy appearance in women, maintain youthful physique, and lose weight in obese population. Techniques of modern abdominoplasty surgery have been primarily developed in the last 40 years concentrating on the skin and subcutaneous tissue, as well as the muscular abdominal wall for maximum esthetic outcome. Many procedures have been combined and modified to achieve these goals. We present an insight of the development of abdominoplasty considering the pitfalls and advancements improving patient outcomes. The result of this work will provide a deeper perspective to the current research around abdominoplasty in healthcare.
