Typically over time when the elasticity in the skin weakens, it isn’t able to return to its original state. That same thing happens when you lose weight quickly. As a result of this, sagging occurs leaving excess weight along with loose skin.

Many people have tummy tuck surgery to achieve a flatter tummy by removing excess skin and fat. Occasionally during surgery, patients take the opportunity to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and scars by getting them removed too.

THE PROCESS OF ABDOMINOPLASTY

This procedure involves the removal of fat and excess skin from the abdomen to tighten the muscles and skin of the abdominal wall. Perfect for patients with sagging skin resulting from pregnancy or rapid weight loss, this procedure is entirely safe and carried out according to your needs, leaving minimal scarring with stitches that can easily be covered with clothes and underwear.

Woman & Doctor

What happens after Abdominoplasty procedure?

After surgery, you will need to stay in hospital overnight for observation. Rubber drains will be inserted during surgery and will be removed the following day before your release. Some swelling and general aching may be experienced. However, prescribed painkillers can be used to combat this. You will be able to return to your daily routine after two to four weeks, and the surgical scars will start to fade after nine months.

HOW IS ABDOMINOPLASTY DECIDED?

Before your surgery, your doctor will evaluate a variety of factors, including the total amount of fat and where it is located, as well as the sagginess and elasticity of your skin. You will also discuss your expectations, goals, and general health condition during this consultation to determine the best approach and treatment methods that will suit you. After this, your surgeon will determine the appropriate anaesthesia method, as well as the duration of your hospital stay.
