TREATMENT
Tummy-tuck
Tummy tuck, medically known as abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at removing excess fat and skin from the abdominal area. It also addresses weakened abdominal muscles, resulting in a firmer and smoother contour. Ideal for those struggling with stubborn abdominal bulges despite exercise and diet, tummy tuck offers long-lasting results with proper maintenance of weight and a healthy lifestyle.
How does the Tummy Tuck Treatment work?
Tummy tuck surgery involves the removal of excess fat and skin from the abdomen while tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles. This procedure helps achieve a flatter and more toned appearance, particularly beneficial for individuals with loose abdominal muscles due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, ageing, or previous surgeries.
What to expect during the Tummy Tuck Treatment?
During a tummy tuck procedure, you will undergo general anesthesia for comfort. The surgeon will make an incision typically from hip to hip along the lower abdomen, remove excess fat and skin, and tighten underlying muscles. The procedure may take several hours depending on the extent of correction needed. Recovery involves managing initial discomfort and wearing compression garments to aid healing.
