Tummy tuck is a surgical cosmetic procedure that flattens your abdomen and improves its shape and appearance.
During a Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty, our best tummy tuck surgeon in Dubai removes excess skin and fat from the lower stomach and tightens the connective tissues with sutures to give it a more toned appearance. In some cases, a belly button reconstruction may be required.
The ideal candidate for a tummy tuck are:
Depending upon what kind of abdominoplasty your plastic surgeon recommends, the procedure varies slightly.
Partial abdominoplasty or tummy tuck procedure involves a large incision across the lower stomach region.
The excess loose skin is removed, and remaining skin is stitched in place with sutures. In a complete abdominoplasty, the horizontal incision is more extensive and extends across the lower tummy, from hip to hip or till just above the pubic region.
During your initial consultations for your tummy tuck procedure, your doctor will note your medical history and perform a thorough clinical evaluation to determine the treatment options available for your issue.
Here are preparatory instructions for your laser hair removal session:
A tummy tuck is performed under general anaesthesia.
The incisions and belly button will be covered in a dressing, and a small tube is placed along the incision area to drain excess fluids. Adequate pain-relieving medications may be given to help in comfortable recovery.
You will be able to appreciate the results of the tummy tuck in a few days after the swelling on the abdomen has subsided.
However, in the first five to six weeks after your treatment, you will need to be careful while moving around or sitting or standing in positions that can strain your incision lines. You will be required to come for regular follow-ups to monitor your healing and results.
Several cosmetic surgical procedures may be recommended based on each individual’s needs and goals.
