Body By Poly with Dr. Alain PolyniceIn this episode, we explore the common perception of tummy tucks as solely cosmetic procedures and uncover their significant reconstructive benefits. Dr. Polynice explains how this surgery not only reshapes and sculpts the abdomen but also tackles issues such as abdominal muscle separation, core strength loss, and the removal of overhanging skin, which can reduce skin breakdowns and rashes.
