ULIPOLYSISTUMMY TUCKS PROGRAM
A tummy tuck, or Abdominoplasty, removes excess fat and skin, and in most cases restores weakened or separated muscles creating an abdominal profile that is smoother and firmer. Even individuals of otherwise normal body weight and proportion can develop an abdomen that protrudes or is loose and sagging.
The most common causes of this include :
- Pregnancy
- Aging
- Significant fluctuations in weight
- Heredity
- Prior surgery
A tummy tuck is suitable for men and women who are in good health. Women who have had several pregnancies may find the procedure useful for tightening their abdominal muscles and reducing skin.
A tummy tuck is also an option for men or women who were once obese and still have excess fat deposits or loose skin around the belly.
If you're a woman who plans to get pregnant, then you may want to postpone a tummy tuck until you're done having children. During surgery, your vertical muscles are tightened, and future pregnancies can separate those muscles.
The Weight loss program at Revive suggest one should not consider Tummy tuck /Abdominoplasty if they are planning to lose weight. A tummy tuck should be a last resort after you've tried everything else. It should not be used as an alternative to weight loss.
At Revive, Multispecialty clinic we provide the best plastic surgeon and would prepare the patient for Tummy Tuck / Abdominoplasty procedure:
Complete Abdominoplasty. The surgeon will cut your abdomen from hipbone to hipbone and then contour the skin, tissue, and muscle as needed. The surgery will involve moving your belly button, and you may need drainage tubes under your skin for a few days.
Partial or mini Abdominoplasty. Mini-Abdominoplasty is often done on people whose fat deposits are located below the navel. During this procedure, the surgeon most likely will not move your belly button, and the procedure may only take up to two hours, depending on your case.
