Are sit-ups not helping you to get the taut tummy you want? Are all the sweet cravings you are resisting going to veins? If you’ve got too much excess skin in your abdomen that is not responding to exercise or diet, you may consider a “tummy tuck,” technically known as “abdominoplasty.”

This surgery flattens the abdomen by removing extra fat and skin and tightening muscles in your abdominal wall. Tummy tuck surgery is among the most sought-after cosmetic treatment by both men and women yearning to achieve a “flat-tummy.” Abdominoplasty or weight loss surgery changes the overall appearance of the stomach by removing the over-stretched and loose skin. The procedure also involves tightening of the underlying muscles and removal of excess fat so that you will be left with a tighter, smooth, and young-looking abdomen.

Many patients who are considering tummy tuck surgery are frustrated about their midsection. In spite of a healthy living, active lifestyle, and rigorous workouts, the abdominal wall rarely goes back to its natural tight, flat appearance. Dr. Ashutosh, known as one of the best tummy tuck surgeons in Delhi NCR, has extensive experience performing tummy tuck surgeries and can help you achieve compelling changes proportionate to your body using advanced surgical techniques.

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM A TUMMY TUCK SURGERY?

• People having a protruding abdomen from stretched muscles and skin
• Women whose abdominal muscles have weakened due to aging or post-pregnancy
• People having loose or sagging tissues after a drastic weight loss
• People having excess fat in the stomach region that does not shed with strict diet and exercise

TYPE OF ABDOMINOPLASTY

Complete/ Traditional abdominoplasty

This type of abdominoplasty is for patients who have a sizeable amount of loose skin to remove from their midsection and need the most correction. In this procedure, one incision is made low on the abdomen that usually extends from hip bone to hip bone, and another incision is made to free the navel from the surrounding skin. The surgeon then shapes the muscle and skin as needed. During this procedure, liposuction is often used to refine the transition zones.

Partial or mini abdominoplasty

Partial or Mini abdominoplasty requires shorter incisions and often performed on patients who have fat deposits below the navel. During this procedure, the belly button of the patient should not move. Partial or mini abdominoplasty may also be performed with an endoscope. It is generally recommended for patients who want to get rid of that mini amount of stubborn belly flab or pouch of the skin.

Extended abdominoplasty

The extended abdominoplasty is a complete abdominoplasty plus a lateral thigh lift. In this procedure, excess skin and tissue are removed not only from the abdomen but also from thighs and hips.

High Lateral tension tummy tuck

This is an advanced technique, in conventional abdominoplasty, muscles are tightened in a vertical line, whereas in high lateral tension tummy tuck procedure, in addition to vertical tightening the muscles are also tightened horizontally, so the final result is flat abdomen with a significantly defined waistline.

Floating Abdominoplasty or FAB Technique

Floating abdominoplasty is a new technique that is also known as an extended mini-abdominoplasty. In this procedure, a small incision is made, and through this incision, excess skin is removed. The belly button is detached, the muscles are tightened and reshaped, the skin is tightened, and the belly button reattached. With the FAB technique, liposuction may also be performed to achieve desired results.

Circumferential abdominoplasty

This type of abdominoplasty is an extended abdominoplasty plus a buttock lift. It also includes the back area, which allows the removal of both fat and skin from the back and hip areas, which improves the shape of the body three-dimensionally. Circumferential abdominoplasty is most suitable for patients who have undergone massive weight loss.

Combination procedures

Abdominoplasty surgery can be combined with liposuction to make a Lipotuck that performs body contouring around thighs, buttocks, and hips. It can also be combined with a breast lift, liposuction contouring, and breast reduction.

ABDOMINOPLASTY SURGERY PROCEDURE

• Depending on the desired results of the patients, the tummy tuck procedure can take from one to five hours.
• The surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia.
• The surgeon made the incision depending on the type of abdominoplasty and the amount of excess skin. Once the abdominal skin is lifted, then the surgeon will manipulate and shape the underlying weakened muscles as required.
• After the surgery, your incision site will be stitched and bandaged. The patient may have to wear a compression garment or elastic bandage.
• The surgeon will instruct the patient about a suitable sleeping or sitting position that can ease the pain.
• After the procedure in the first week, the patient may experience
• Bruising, tightness, swelling, and mild to moderate pain.
• The patient may need to take oral pain medication for 5-7 days after the surgery.
• The drains will be removed after two days of the surgery.
• The patient is advised to avoid exercise, work, alcohol, and smoking for about four weeks after the surgery.

TUMMY TUCK RECOVERY

During the ltummy tuck recovery, bandages or dressings may be applied to the incisions, and you may be wrapped in a compression garment or elastic bandage to minimize swelling and support your abdomen as it heals following surgery.

For a few days, small, thin tubes may be placed under the skin to drain any excess fluid or blood that may collect.

You will be given specific instructions that may include:

• How to care for the surgical site and drains
• Medications to take orally or apply to reduce the potential for infection
• Specific concerns to look for in your general health or at the surgical site
• When to follow up with your plastic surgeon
