Health Benefits of Tummy Tucks (Abdominoplasty)

Most people who come to our North Toronto office expecting a tummy tuck to be ‘just’ a cosmetic operation, but the benefits are so much greater than just appearances.
1. Exercise and diet are frustrating if they just leave you with more loose skin. A tummy tuck will remove the loose skin and motivate you to continue to improve your health through proper diet and exercise.
2. Exercise is physically uncomfortable if you have loose skin flapping around, and compromised skin hygeine (including rashes and odour) can also make exercise unpleasant.
3. Improved self-esteem helps you to be more assertive in your relationships.
4. Women have expressed resentment of their children for having ‘wrecked’ their figure. Petty or not, restoring your beauty may help make you a better parent.
5. Repair of diastasis rectus may improve core strength and relieve back pain
6. Many women have expressed improvements in stress incontinence (peeing when you sneeze, jump or laugh) and sexual relations
There are many more benefits- hopefully our readers can add to this list!

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
