Tummy tuck surgery is performed to match the needs of the individual. An evaluation of your abdomen will reveal the surgery needed in your case:
A traditional tummy tuck is the appropriate surgical approach for those who have split or loosened abdominal muscles, excess skin and fat, and a “pannus,” an apron-like flap of skin sagging on the lower abdomen. Stretch marks on the lower area of your abdomen are typically removed along with the excess skin. The incision stretches from hip to hip, and is low enough that it is not visible, even when wearing a swimsuit or low-cut pants. The belly button structure is often moved so it is restored to a youthful location on the abdomen. The procedure may include liposuction to remove excess fat, and tightening the muscles above the belly button to restructure the entire region and create a flat, youthful look. This technique may be ideal for post-bariatric body contouring.
A mini tummy tuck may be the approach if the damage to the abdominal area is below the belly button. The incision is shorter, and the surgery is focused on repairing damage to the lower abdomen, such as stretched excess skin, fatty deposits, and stretch marks after pregnancy. If you are troubled by the appearance of a bulging, flabby area lower below the belly button, have an unattractive lower tummy after a C-section or pregnancy, you may be a good candidate for this surgical technique.
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is performed under general anesthesia. It is a major surgery that involves several weeks of recovery – but the results are well worth the wait. The surgery takes several hours to complete, after which most patients can return home to rest and recover under the care of another adult. Some patients may need an overnight stay.
The estimated time for the initial recovery is four to six weeks, with swelling and bruising diminishing with time. You will be wearing a compression garment to protect your newly-reshaped abdomen, and Dr. Repta will see you for several post-operative appointments and will closely monitor every phase of your recovery.
