Abdominoplasty

If you're in pretty decent health but have a large belly that won't go away with diet or exercise, this operation will most likely be able to help you.

After numerous pregnancies, women's abdominal muscles and skin relax beyond the point where they can return to normal, therefore an abdominoplasty may be beneficial.

Recommended! Women and men in reasonably good shape who are concerned about losing skin that does not respond to diet, exercise, or both are the greatest candidates for abdominoplasty.

The best candidates for surgery

They are men and women who do not have major health issues or obesity, but who have drooping and extra skin in the belly. It is critical to recognize that abdominoplasty is not a weight-loss procedure.

Objective of abdominoplasty

With abdominoplasty we achieve:

• The abdominal wall is strengthened.
• Getting rid of loose skin and localized fat in the lower belly.
• Possible abnormalities, scars, and stretch marks are treated.

• Total abdominoplasty is performed in the supraorbital country, exactly at the height of the caesarean section, under general anesthesia or epidural. At the level of the muscle layers, up to the height of the sword-like process and the lateral arches, the entire dermal flap is mobilized. The navel is placed in a new position during this mobilization. The abdominal wall is strengthened by suturing the right abdominal thighs in the midline of the abdomen during this procedure.
• The patient is admitted to the clinic for the first night after the operation, and the wound is changed 48 hours later. For the next 24 hours, the patient is fully mobilized while wearing a customized corset for at least 30 days. The sutures are removed 15 days following surgery, and the scar that covers the wound is tiny and fades over time.
• Modified complete abdominoplasty is a new treatment for cases where the navel location does not need to be relocated but there is severe relaxation. The mobilization is performed in the same way as a total abdominoplasty, but there is no navel incision.
• A partial (mini) abdominoplasty is a tiny abdominoplasty that is done below the navel and can be performed under local or general anesthesia. It is only used in rare circumstances where the condition is minor and involves the relaxation of the lower abdomen's skin. The incision is relatively minor, and the patient can resume his normal activities right away. In this instance, a specific corset is worn for at least four weeks.

In order to get the desired effect, an abdominoplasty can be whole or partial (mini) and may include a mix of other treatments such as liposuction (novel Thermi Tight technology - lipolysis).

Potential risks and effects:

Thousands of abdominoplasties are performed each year without complications, particularly when performed by a skilled plastic surgeon. However, like with any surgery, there is a recovery period and the use of an elastic corset is required. Carefully following the instructions of Doctor Dr. Andrea Ioannidis you will be sure that the treatment will be finished without complications and will be an exact surgery
