Abstract: Background. Abdominoplasty is an aesthetic operation aimed at eliminating a cosmetic defect in the anterior abdominal wall. Purpose. To systematize the literature data on the issue of abdominoplasty and correction of diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscles. Main content. The most common reason requiring body correction was and remains abdominoptosis and divergence of the rectus abdominis muscles. Abdominoplasty occupies one of the first places in the list of plastic aesthetic operations. A significant increase in the number of performed operations of abdominoplasty and suturing of the diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscles necessitates a study of the effectiveness of the above operations. Most abdominoplasty operations are combined with diastasis of the rectus abdominis. A separate point should be indicated for abdominoplasty after previously performed bariatric surgeries. With the increasing demand for cosmetic correction, the number of plastic surgeries performed is also increasing. This leads to an increase in postoperative complications. Conclusion. The steady increase in the number of operations aimed at correcting the shape of the abdomen requires further study of the technique, the materials used, and reducing the number of postoperative complications.
