Abdominoplasty
or a “tummy tuck
” is a cosmetic surgery designed to correct a protruding abdomen that may result from weak abdominal muscles
weight gain
or pregnancy. These conditions may not respond well to diet or exercise if the skin and underlying muscles have been stretched
which makes this surgery possibly a necessity for someone who wants a decent shape back.
With a tummy tuck
the abdominal wall muscles are tightened and excess fatty tissue and skin are removed to improve the body’s shape and appearance. The goal is a narrower
flatter abdomen. Realistic expectations are important
and contrary to some beliefs
a tummy tuck is not a substitute for weight loss. Dieters should hit their ideal weight before going in for this procedure
and a woman who plans to become pregnant again in the future should wait until she’s finished having new children
otherwise this surgery may just be a waste of money.
Antibiotics will be prescribed prior to surgery to prevent infection. To minimize the possibility of excess bleeding
you will need to avoid taking drugs containing aspirin. You will also be advised to bathe with an antiseptic soap for several days prior to surgery. Abdominoplasty is performed using general anesthesia. Some doctors may give you medication beforehand to help you feel relaxed. Surgeries generally take anywhere from 2-5 hours
depending on the patient’s health and condition. Recovery time also varies greatly.
Some swelling and discomfort is normal after surgery
and general pain pills will help to get through this more comfortable. The doctor will provide the instructions you need for changing bandages
showering
and general care. As with any other medical surgery
it is always important to follow the doctor’s orders. The scars take time to fade
but they will fade over time. This is the cosmetic surgery that may take the most recovery time
but to someone who has been plagued by a “fat gut” despite doing everything right know how rewarding this procedure can be for them. A good diet and normal exercise routine after the surgery (and recovery time) will be of great benefit.
