By Steven J. Rottman, MD

If you’re struggling with a stubborn midsection that won’t respond to diet and exercise, you’re not alone. For many people—especially after pregnancy or significant weight changes—the abdominal skin and muscles can become loose and unresponsive to traditional fitness efforts.
