What is Tummy Tuck Surgery?
Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that reconstructs the abdominal wall, removing excess skin and fat while restoring abdominal muscles. It can be performed on women or men, but is more common on men.
The goal is to achieve a flat, firm abdomen after losing a smaller waistline due to pregnancy, significant weight gain or loss, or aging. The results achieved cannot be achieved through exercise or dieting .
Abdominoplasty is one of the procedures that has seen the greatest increase in recent years. In my view, it's an intervention that can only be considered in cases where there is a real problem, such as severe diastases of the rectus muscles or very marked dermatochalasis (abdominal sagging). It cannot be considered a cosmetic procedure.
As with any intervention, a thorough prior evaluation of patients is essential, especially regarding smoking habits, obesity (BMI > 30), and a history of deep vein thrombosis. This includes prior medications, bowel function, and previous surgical complications such as bleeding, infections, or vomiting.
