Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat and tightening the abdominal muscles. Plastic Surgeons Board Certified specializes in abdominoplasty procedures to help patients achieve a firmer, more toned abdomen.
Understanding Abdominoplasty:
Consultation:
Initial consultation with Dr. Deepali andher team of Plastic Surgeons Board Certified to discuss your goals, assess your abdominal area, and determine if abdominoplasty is right for you.
Types of Abdominoplasty:
Full Abdominoplasty: Addresses the entire abdominal area, including the upper and lower abdomen.
Mini Abdominoplasty: Targets the lower abdomen below the belly button, ideal for patients with minimal excess skin and fat.
Procedure Overview:
Anesthesia:
Abdominoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort throughout the procedure.
Incisions:
A horizontal incision is made low on the abdomen, typically hidden within the bikini line.
Additional incisions may be made around the belly button for repositioning.
Tissue Removal and Muscle Tightening:
Excess skin and fat are removed, and the abdominal muscles are tightened to create a firmer abdominal contour.
Skin and Tissue Repositioning:
The remaining skin and tissue are repositioned and sutured into place for a smoother appearance.
Belly Button Reconstruction:
If needed, the belly button may be repositioned and reshaped for a natural look.
Recovery:
Immediate Postoperative Period:
Some swelling, bruising, and discomfort are expected and can be managed with pain medication.
Drains may be placed to collect excess fluid and are usually removed within a week.
Activity Restrictions:
Avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for several weeks.
Follow postoperative instructions provided by Dr. Deepali for optimal healing.
Results:
Flatter, Firmer Abdomen:
Reduction in excess skin and fat leads to a flatter and more toned abdominal contour.
Improved abdominal profile and waistline.
Enhanced Body Confidence:
Patients often experience increased confidence and satisfaction with their body appearance.
