The process of tummy tuck:

The surgery involves the removal of excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen in order to tighten the muscle and fascia of the abdominal wall.
The process usually takes 1-5 hours, depending on the extent of the surgery under general anesthesia, for example, a mini abdominoplasty will usually take less time. Tummy tuck would be the best option for women whose skin has stretched from pregnancy or obese people whose skin have lost it’s elasticity. The best volunteers for abdominoplasty are non-smokers and people in a stable weight.

Different kinds of abdominoplasty:

• Complete abdominoplasty: During this kind of abdominoplasty, An incision is made from hip to hip just above the pubic area, then Another incision is made to free the navel from the surrounding skin. The skin is detached from the abdominal wall to reveal the muscles and fascia to be tightened. The muscle fascia wall is tightened with sutures. Liposuction is often used to refine the transition zones of the abdominal sculpture. A dressing and sometimes a compression garment are applied and any excess fluid from the site is drained.
• Partial abdominoplasty: Partial or mini abdominoplasty, usually takes 1-2 hours cause the incision is smaller and The skin and fat of the lower abdomen are detached in a more limited fashion from the muscle fascia. Sometimes the belly button stalk is divided from the muscle below and the belly button slid down lower on the abdominal wall.
• Extended abdominoplasty: Liposuction is often used to contour the transition zone. The operation does all of the abdominal contouring of a complete abdominoplasty and allows further improvement of the flank (waist), as well as smoothing the contour of the upper lateral thigh.
