Abdominoplasty
(Tummy Tuck)
Procedure:
This surgery flattens the abdomen by removing excess fat along
with skin & tightens muscles of the abdominal wall. The surgery
is particularly helpful to those ladies who, through multiple
pregnancies, have stretched their abdominal muscles and skin beyond
the point and hence with the help of this surgery can return to
normal. The loss of skin elasticity in older patients, which commonly
occurs with obesity, can also be improved. It is probably the
best solution to reduce the post pregnancy stretch marks.
Duration of Surgery:
2 - 4 hours.
Duration of Results:
Permanent. Pressure garments are to be worn for a period of 3
- 6 months.
