Understanding Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that tightens the skin between the chest and genital area, often used to achieve a flat and taut abdomen. It yields effective results and is frequently preferred by those desiring a smoother and firmer stomach.
Various reasons might necessitate an abdominoplasty:
- Significant body changes post-pregnancy
- Rapid weight loss
- Age-related skin sagging
- Previous abdominal surgeries
- Genetic predispositions
The procedure is designed based on the patient’s requirements, and a preliminary plan is established for the anticipated changes. The final outcome will depend on the patient’s unique demands and expectations.
The Benefits of Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty contributes significantly to an individual’s quality of life. With a toned and aesthetically pleasing abdominal area, you can achieve your desired look. Tailored to your preferences, the procedure ensures no limitations concerning clothing choices due to the abdominal region. The closer you are to feeling content with your body, the easier it becomes to establish harmony with your surroundings.
Abdominoplasty: The Procedure
Prior to the procedure, our medical team assesses the patient’s suitability for the surgery and provides detailed information. For individuals with inflammatory diseases, we recommend progressing through specific treatment stages before proceeding with the surgery.
- The surgery typically lasts between 2 and 4 hours, though the duration may vary depending on the specifics of the case. Mini-surgeries, for instance, can be completed in 1-2 hours.
- Once suitability is confirmed and pre-operative instructions are followed, the procedure commences with the administration of anesthesia.
- An incision is made between the hip bones.
- A second incision is made to ensure the navel remains separate from other tissues. Depending on the specific circumstances, the navel may remain intact or be repositioned.
- The skin tissue is then stretched towards the ribs for reshaping.
- If the navel has been relocated, it is reattached and the suturing process is completed. A drain is inserted to remove blood and excess fluid.
- If a mini abdominoplasty is planned, general anesthesia may not be necessary. The procedure can be performed under local anesthesia without causing any discomfort. However, general anesthesia is often the preferred choice.
Recovery from abdominoplasty can take up to 6 months. We provide comprehensive aftercare advice and solutions to support your healing process.
