Surge of Surgeries Tightens Flabby Skin
In this era of rampant obesity, after people become very heavy, they often turn to stomach stapling or liposuction, which causes them to lose a great deal of weight very quickly. This can leave unsightly folds of flesh hanging all over their bodies. When this happens, many choose to undergo yet another operation that removes the flabby folds. In Britain, for example, 21 percent of men and 22 percent of women are clinically obese, which is expected to rise to a quarter of all adults in 2010. So it's perhaps not surprising that the number of tummy tucks in Britain has increased since 2003 by nearly a third, according to Harley Medical Group, the nation's largest cosmetic surgery firm.
