Abdominoplasty, also known medically as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure performed to remove excess skin and fat tissue from the abdominal area and correct it. The main purpose of an abdominal lift is to achieve a tighter and more shapely abdominal area.
A tummy tuck offers numerous benefits, including a flatter, firmer abdomen, improved body contour, and increased self-confidence. It can also correct structural defects in the abdominal wall, such as a hernia or rectus diastasis, and tightening the abdominal muscles can improve posture. The procedure can significantly impact your quality of life by improving both your physical appearance and emotional well-being.
What Problems Can Be Fixed with Abdominoplasty?
Sagging and Looseness in the Abdominal Area
Factors such as pregnancy, weight changes or the aging process can cause the skin and muscles in the abdominal area to sag and loosen. Tummy tuck surgery corrects this sagging skin and muscles, providing a tighter and more aesthetic abdominal appearance.
Correcting the Shape of the Abdomen After Childbirth
During pregnancy, the abdominal area expands and stretches, but after birth, the skin and muscles may not return to their original shape. A tummy tuck helps restore a more contoured abdominal profile by correcting postpartum changes.
Reducing Accumulated Fat in the Abdominal Area
Accumulated fat deposits in the abdominal area may not be corrected even with diet and exercise. A tummy tuck can help reduce these stubborn fat deposits and achieve a more contoured abdominal appearance.
Repairing Cracks
A tummy tuck can reduce the appearance of stretch marks by removing or correcting the area of skin where stretch marks are located. Aesthetic problems in the abdominal area can cause some people to feel insecure. A more shapely and firm abdomen resulting from a tummy tuck can increase a person’s self-confidence.
How is Abdominoplasty Performed?
Abdominoplasty is usually performed under general anesthesia, and the duration of the surgery may vary depending on the patient’s condition and the desired areas to be corrected. During the procedure, excess fat and skin under the abdominal skin are removed, the underlying muscles are tightened, and the abdominal area is reshaped to be tighter and more smooth.
Your doctor will determine the most appropriate tummy tuck technique and ensure that the operation is performed without any risks. It is also important to pay appropriate attention to the post-operative recovery process.
