Tummy Tuck on the South Shore of Montréal: The #1 Solution for Loose Skin After Pregnancy or Weight Loss

A flat, toned abdomen is one of the most requested goals for patients across the South Shore — especially after pregnancy or major weight loss. But when loose skin, stretched muscles, and stubborn fat remain, no amount of diet or exercise can restore firmness.
This is when a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) becomes the most effective and transformative solution.

Serving Longueuil, Brossard, Boucherville, Saint-Hubert, and the entire Rive-Sud, Dr. Alain Gagnon specializes in creating natural, refined abdominal contours for both women and men.

Why a Tummy Tuck Is Often the Only Solution

Pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and aging can cause three major issues:

• Loose, hanging skin
• Separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti)
• Accumulated lower abdominal fat

These cannot be corrected with exercises like crunches or planks — because the underlying muscle structure is compromised. A tummy tuck repairs the foundation of the abdomen.

What a Tummy Tuck Can Improve

South Shore patients typically see improvement in:

• A flat, smooth abdominal profile
• Tightened abdominal muscles
• Removal of excess skin
• Elimination of stubborn lower-belly fat
• Reduction of stretch marks in the treated area
• Improved posture and core strength

It’s one of the most rewarding procedures for mothers and weight-loss patients.
