It is believed that the next generation of body contour procedures is the hourglass tummy tuck. The hourglass tummy tuck is a procedure that is developed after examining thousands of women’s before and after pictures. Take note that the hourglass tummy tuck is completely different from a traditional tummy tuck and other performed hourglass procedures.

Maybe you want to know how you can get an hourglass shape with the hourglass tummy tuck. You may also want to know what are the components needed so that you can achieve these results. For starters or for those who are new to the said surgical procedure, liposuction is performed on the upper and lower back. The lower back is more important to provide a better hourglass definition than the upper back. An example of this is when liposuction is performed on the waist from the backside as well as the flank; two anatomical structures extend from the anterior part of the body all the way to the posterior, accentuating your hourglass shape in different profiles.

The muscles are then tightened and the excess skin is cut like in a traditional tummy tuck. Liposuction is added to the abdomen to decrease the thickness of the fat layer to make the waist smaller before transferring fat to the hips. Even if liposuction on the waist is performed, you will not still achieve an hourglass figure knowing that fat transfer to the hips is not performed. The fat is taken from the liposuction and is injected into the hip area to sculpt the hips. These are the procedures necessary in order to achieve a perfect hourglass figure. It is important for you to know and understand what an hourglass tummy tuck is before you undergo this procedure. Ask your surgeon about it and do not be shy to inquire.
