If you're seeking to address excess skin, fat, and stretch marks that may persist despite diet and exercise, our skilled professionals are dedicated to providing you with a tailored solution. Explore the potential for a more sculpted and contoured abdomen, and embark on a journey towards renewed confidence and aesthetic satisfaction through Tummy Tuck at our clinic. Tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical intervention designed to improve the shape of the abdominal area. The procedure involves the removal of excess loose skin, fat, and stretch marks, along with the tightening of abdominal muscles.
Tummy tuck surgery is not a quick fix for weight loss; instead, it is recommended for individuals with a healthy body mass index seeking to address issues such as post-pregnancy changes or excess skin after significant weight loss.
Types of Tummy Tuck:
The Procedure: Tummy tuck surgeries are generally performed under general anesthesia and can take between 2 to 5 hours. While some individuals may require an overnight stay in the hospital, it can also be conducted as a safe daycare surgical procedure.
Post-Operative Care: After the surgery, patients may experience some pain, which can be managed with prescribed painkillers. Dressings and a pressure garment (corset) are applied to the treated area. Full recovery typically takes about 4 to 6 weeks, during which time patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities and driving.
Post-Operative Benefits:
Combination with Liposuction: In some cases, Tummy Tuck may be combined with Liposuction to address residual fat deposits and enhance the overall aesthetic outcome. This combination, known as Lipo-Abdominoplasty, is common at our clinic.
