Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)
Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck: this procedure is ideal for those who have lost weight or had a pregnancy, resulting in excessive tummy skin and soft tissue.It is not a treatment for being overweight and often you will be advised to lose weight first before surgery if you are overweight to reduce your chances of post-operative complications.
An abdominoplasty can help correct the overhang, which cannot be shifted with diet and tummy exercises. Which types of abdominoplasties (mini, full) you need will be dependent on your body shape. Occasionally, there is a need to combine this with liposuction. This will be dependent on your body shape and will be discussed with you during the consultation.
You will get a scar and sometimes some excess skin called "dog ears" can be found at the end of your scar. There is a small change of infection and bleeding. Miss Liem may address the muscle, which she will discuss with you before surgery. You can expect to stay in the hospital for 1 night.
