Hewlett Plastic Surgeon Corrects Misconceptions: Tummy Tuck Not For Weight Loss

Oct. 9, 2009 - PRLog -- In the quest to fulfill one's weight loss goals, many prospective patients are inaccurately turning towards the perceived instant results of a tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty. However, with such procedures it is important to remember that they are by no means a comprehensive way to address weight loss and or obesity.

Dr. Gerut reminds patients that the proper way to secure their weight loss goals is through a combination of methods, including a proper diet and exercise. He also reminds patients to always consult a board-certified plastic surgeon when it comes to such issues.
