Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is the best way of correction, if the elasticity of the abdominal skin has been degenerated, or if a so-called \u201csagging stomach\u201d was formed after a pregnancy or considerable loss of weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Procedure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The surgery is carried out under general anesthesia. Excessive tissue from the lower abdomen is removed and a new abdomen is formed from the skin of the upper part. If there is a separation of the abdominal rectus muscles, this is corrected during the operation. Thus the abdominal cavity becomes smaller, and during the period of immediate recovery, it is important to pay special attention to proper breathing in order to promote the healing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the Operation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The patient stays in the postoperative ward for the night and is discharged on the following morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is recommended to wear a custom-made girdle (a support garment) for about six weeks after the surgery. This speeds up tissue healing. Lymphatic massage also promotes better fluid circulation and reduces oedemas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We advise reserving at least three weeks for recovery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
