IS A TUMMY TUCK SURGERY RIGHT FOR YOU?

Is your exercise and diet routine just not giving you the flat-toned tummy you’ve been wishing for? For many people, stubborn belly fat or loose skin persists despite their best efforts, especially after major weight loss or having a baby. This is where a tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, can be a transformative solution.If you're experiencing any of the following, you might be an excellent candidate for a tummy tuck:

Excess abdominal fat: Do you have pockets of fat on your stomach that seem resistant to diet and exercise?
Sagging skin or bulging: Has pregnancy, weight loss, or ageing left you with loose or stretched abdominal skin?
Weak abdominal muscles: Have multiple pregnancies or significant weight changes weakened your core muscles?

YOUR TUMMY TUCK JOURNEY WITH COSMESURGE

Tummy Tuck Consultation

During your tummy tuck surgery consultation, you will discuss your medical history with our plastic surgeon. We want you to be completely open with the doctor about your concerns, habits and expectations so that we can give you the best advice based on your needs.

After your discussion, the surgeon will advise you on the best possible treatment based on your lifestyle, medical history and needs. The surgeon will then walk you through each step of preparing for the surgery and your recovery process.

As part of surgery prep, the doctor will also ask you to do some lab tests and bloodwork to ensure that you are ready for surgery.

Tummy Tuck Surgery

A tummy tuck surgery can seem a little intimidating, but with our qualified medical professionals holding your hand every step of the way, you’ll be receiving the results you want in no time.

Generally, the tummy tuck surgery takes about 2 to 4 hours to complete and involves general or spinal anaesthesia. After the procedure, we may ask you to stay in the hospital for one or two nights for monitoring and to ensure you receive the required after-surgery care. There are different tummy tuck techniques which include:

Standard/Full Tummy Tuck: It is the most common form of tummy tuck surgery. Surgeons opt for this procedure in cases of excessive weight or multiple pregnancies. During the procedure, surgeons gently make a large incision along the bikini line and remove the fat or sagging skin above the pubic area up to the belly button. This procedure is ideal for patients with a significant amount of loose skin and weakened muscles throughout the abdomen.

Mini Tummy Tuck: A mini tummy tuck surgery focuses on the lower abdomen, the area below the navel. The surgeon makes a single smaller incision at the bikini line. During the surgery, excess fat is removed, loose muscles are tightened, and the skin is readjusted. This procedure is ideal for patients with minimal skin laxity above the belly button, but loose skin and weakened muscles below such as women post-delivery.

Extended Tummy Tuck: An extended tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is for patients with more areas under consideration for fat removal. This surgery is chosen after a massive weight loss. The surgeon makes a single incision that will wrap around the abdomen to reach the hips. Such a large incision allows the surgeon to tighten the skin evenly down across the tummy. It can leave a larger scar than the other procedures that may be hard to hide under intimate clothing.

Tummy Tuck Post-Surgery

During your recovery process, our expert team will be available to answer any questions you may have. We will also give you a comprehensive guide to your recovery to make sure you get the results you are looking for in the safest manner possible.

After the abdominoplasty, your incisions will be covered in bandages. The abdomen will be loosely wrapped in elastic bandages to minimize swelling. Small tubes might be placed in your abs to drain any excess blood or fluid. Some plastic surgeons may have you wear a compression sleeve for a few weeks to keep swelling down. Regular follow-up after the surgery is important to measure your progress.

Tummy Tuck Aftercare

Our expert medical team will guide you through every step of the aftercare process in detail. For successful long-lasting results of the tummy tuck surgery, it is imperative to follow the below:

Avoid lifting heavy-weight items for 3-4 weeks.
Avoid physical and athletic activities that might stretch the incisions for 4-8 weeks after surgery.
Take pain medication as needed and use topical or oral antibiotics as directed to prevent infections.
Contact your doctor immediately if you experience shortness of breath, chest pains, an irregular heartbeat, redness of the skin, or fever.
Must attend your follow-up appointments to track your progress

FAQS

Is tummy tuck surgery permanent?

Yes, tummy tuck surgeries or abdominoplasty have a lasting almost permanent result. However, the key is the patient’s watch over food and exercise. As the tummy tuck already takes out fat cells and smooths the skin. The flat abdomen looks perfect. But if calorie intake is unwatched, fat cells grow and again cause the body fat to grow

Who should not get a tummy tuck?

Individuals may not be allowed to undergo an abdominoplasty. There are medically backed reasons to rule them out, such as:

Patients with unrealistic weight loss expectations.
Patient planning a pregnancy post the surgery
People with serious conditions such as cardio diseases or diabetes
Heavy smokers
People with a BMI higher than 30
A person having a second abdominal surgery with major scar tissue

Which option is better tummy tuck or liposuction?

Both surgeries aim at reducing fat. However, liposuction is a milder procedure in terms of the recovery period.
As a patient, first of all, you have to trust your surgeon with what he recommends. Liposuction is mostly a mommy makeover. It enables people to shed fat faster and get back to normal life sooner. It does not tighten the skin.

However, on the other hand, abdominoplasty is a more detailed procedure. It has a longer healing time, with a scar that fades after a long time and in certain cases, does not fade out completely.
With few patients, doctors also perform both liposuction and abdominoplasty on patients based solely on their condition

Types of tummy tuck?

There are a variety of tummy tuck surgeries, and doctors perform only when they know the patient’s history, fat deposits in the body, and the candidate’s health. Doctors perform tummy tuck surgery in Dubai, once the candidate is found fit for surgery. Below are the surgery options evaluated by the surgeons:

Standard or full tummy tuck:
This is the most common type of tummy tuck best for mid-section tightening and fat loss.
In this procedure, the surgeon makes an incision along the bikini line and removes the fat or sagging skin from the upper abdomen.

Mini tummy tuck:
For those struggling with belly paunch, this procedure is perfect. A smaller incision is made to reposition the lower stomach area. The upper abdomen is untouched while the lower paunch is easily fixed.

Extended tummy tuck:
Extended tummy tuck extends on a larger area and the surgeons work around the lower belly and across the hips. Vertical incisions might be made to remove excess fatty tissues.

Fleur-de-lis tummy tuck:
This procedure is aimed at removing excess skin from the abdominal area. In this procedure, fat removal and tightening occur with both vertical and horizontal incisions.

What are the benefits of a tummy tuck?

People considering a tummy tuck should know that apart from getting rid of fat cells there is more, such as:

The person has inflated confidence and self-esteem.
You get a firm, tight and flat abdomen.
A trim, pronounced waistline can be achieved.
As the skin tightens the stretch marks also fade and get removed in the process.
All body contours are strengthened.
Post surgery the patient gets a strong posture.
With the right diet and exercise the results can be permanent.
