The actions to be taken are decided by taking these factors into consideration. In people who do not have sagging and stretch marks on the skin of the abdomen, operations such as mini abdominoplasty or liposuction, which are simpler procedures, can be considered.

It is preferred in cases where the accumulation of fat in the abdominal wall is moderate and is seen in the lower half of the abdomen, and the decrease in flexibility in the abdominal skin is monitored in the lower half of the abdomen.
