Abstract
A review of 428 abdominoplasties performed for the correction of abdominal flaccidity emphasizes the need for a wide repertory of surgical techniques to achieve an aesthetically natural appearance of the abdomen. Six details of surgical technique have considerably improved the results of abdominoplasty performed at our institute during the past 14 years. These six technical details are easy to accomplish without prolonging the total operating time.
