Different types of Tummy Tucks
There are several plastic surgery techniques that are used to correct body contours in the waist and abdomen:
Classic
Horizontal and vertical abdominoplasty is an operation during which an incision is made on the anterior abdominal wall. The surgeon removes excess skin and tissue, tightens the muscles, stitches and installs drainage. According to this method, abdominoplasty with the transfer of the navel is performed.
Minimally invasive
The incision is made in the bikini area to hide postoperative scars as much as possible. Due to limitations, this technique is used to remove minor defects and skin-fat deposits.
Endoscopic
Through a puncture in the pubic area or the navel, an endoscope is inserted into the patient’s body. An even more gentle operation, which is intended only for suturing the abdominal cavity.
Complete abdominoplasty
An extensive operation that affects several areas at once – the abdomen, groin, hips, back. This technique is used to remove significant accumulations of skin and fatty tissues.
Recovery after Tummy Tuck
On average, the operation lasts from 2 – 4 hours and is performed under general anaesthesia. After its completion, the patient must spend 2 – 5 days in the inpatient department, the drainage is removed on the second day, and the stitches – after 10-14 days. During the home recovery period, be sure to wear an elastic bandage and strictly follow the doctor’s recommendations. Physical activity and sports load will have to be limited for some time, from 2 – 6 months, depending on the complexity of the operation. The result after Tummy Tuck surgery can be fully assessed after 2 months. In the absence of sudden changes in weight or hormonal disruptions, it persists for life.
