AB 1401 - Extension of the Minimum COBRA Coverage Period.

Tummy tuck patients must have a body mass index (BMI) of 28 or below. A BMI over 28 puts patients at a higher risk for complications as well as results that may be less than patients expect.
What is a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)? An abdominoplasty is a major surgical procedure that will remove excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen and tighten the abdominal muscles. An incision is made across the lower abdomen from hipbone to hipbone. A second incision is made around the belly button. The skin and fat are separated from the abdominal wall.
