ABDOMINOPLASTY SURGERY: WHEN IS A TUMMY TUCK NECESSARY?

ABDOMINOPLASTY SURGERY DUBAI | 21 DECEMBER 2024

An abdominoplasty can be performed for a variety of reasons. It could be performed as a component of another procedure, such repairing a hernia. Or you might desire one due to the following:

– loose skin after you’ve lost a lot of weight

– loose skin and muscles after pregnancy

– scars on your tummy from earlier surgery or an injury (as long as you also have loose skin so the tummy tuck can be done)

By removing excess fat and skin and tightening your abdominal muscles, tummy tuck surgery may improve the appearance of your stomach. You can have a smoother, flatter belly with this plastic surgery technique. Prior to your stomach tuck, you must be as near to a healthy body weight as you can. You cannot control or lose weight with a stomach tuck.

Additionally, you should maintain a healthy weight following this operation to have the greatest long-term outcome. You might not have a flat stomach after the treatment.

You may not be able to have tummy tuck surgery if you:

– are a smoker

– are overweight

– have had blood clots in the past

– are planning to get pregnant in the future

– have heart disease or diabetes that isn’t controlled properly

– have body dysmorphia – when you think there’s something wrong with how you look, even though there isn’t

– don’t have very much loose skin

If the procedure is appropriate for you, a licensed plastic surgeon can advise you. The clinic where the procedure will be performed should satisfy you. You should also be aware of what will happen in the event of an emergency and the post-operative care you will receive. You can get this information from your surgeon.

Consider your options carefully before deciding to get an abdominoplasty. Surgery is not necessary. Therefore, you should consider your feelings and coping mechanisms in the event of a problem or mishap.

Before registering, confirm that you will be seeing the surgeon who will perform your procedure. Prior to surgery, you should be allowed a “cooling off” period of at least a few weeks. It could be beneficial to see your surgeon again if you have any more queries following this.

You will be required to sign a consent form if you choose to proceed. Before signing this, it’s crucial to ensure that you are fully informed, and your surgeon should provide you with written information on the procedure and its dangers. Before your procedure, you have the freedom to change your decision at any moment.
