Atherosclerosis is a kind of plaque build-up process that causes the arteries to harden up and in some cases rupture and cause strokes, blood clots and heart attacks. Recent research has found the inflammation surrounding visceral fat directly affecting atherosclerosis. Visceral fat is hidden and occurs deep in the abdominal cavity unlike subcutaneous fat which is found nearer the skin surface. There is nothing nourishing about visceral fat as it is purely fat that has accumulated and does not have any outlet except for getting metabolized by the liver and turning into harmful blood cholesterol.
Plastic surgeons cannot get rid of visceral fat by a tummy tuck surgery as it requires a surgical procedure that is completely different in nature than a cosmetic abdominoplasty. However, medical experts recommend exercise and diet as the main course of action before committing to a surgery of any kind. Plastic surgery procedures like a tummy tuck or a panniculectomy can be resorted to after a weight loss surgery to remove visceral fat though. These procedures are great for tightening the abdominal muscles and regaining skin elasticity.
Get in touch with the advanced surgical institute, the Plastic Surgery Institute of California for expert information on getting rid of visceral fat and getting your stomach back in shape.
