So, you have tried everything for that flat abdomen to no avail. Diet and exercise are not giving you the desired results. Well, you now have the option of a “tummy tuck surgery” (also called abdominoplasty). This surgical procedure not only tightens the muscles around your abdomen but also removes the excess fat and skin in your body, flattening your abdomen and improving your overall body shape.

Now, you must note that tummy tuck is not the same as liposuction. While liposuction involves small incisions to insert a thin tube to facilitate the removal of fat cells, a tummy tuck surgery includes large incisions to remove the extra fat and skin. However, you can opt for both tummy tuck and liposuction at Kosmoderma Clinic.

Well, tummy tuck is a major surgery and it helps to know what to expect before going ahead.

Who are Good Candidates for Tummy Tuck Surgery?

Kosmoderma’s team of experts will conduct a detailed assessment to determine whether you are a good candidate for a tummy tuck. Men and women who are healthy and have a stable weight can opt for this procedure. Moreover, you are advised this surgery if you have loose abdominal skin or large fat deposits that you are unable to lose with diet and exercise.

Nevertheless, you must not have plans of becoming pregnant when you want to undergo this surgery. More so, our professionals will advise you to refrain from smoking if you are considering this option.

You should also remember that tummy tuck cannot prevent weight gain. Besides that, any changes to your weight impact the surgery results. Our skin experts will recommend postponing your tummy tuck if you plan on losing weight anytime soon.

Additionally, if you have plans to expand your family, you will be cautioned against undergoing a tummy tuck. That’s because pregnancy can cause your muscles and skin, obscuring the tummy tuck results.

All About the Tummy Tuck Procedure

Like all surgical procedures, the tummy tuck surgery involves administering anesthesia to the patient to reduce their discomfort during the session. Also, as part of a full tummy tuck, horizontally oriented incisions are made around the abdominal area. The shape and length of the incisions depend on the amount of excess skin that has to be removed. Drainage tubes are used to drain the extra fluid, too.

Plus, tapes, skin adhesives, and sutures are used to close the incisions. Following the surgery, you will be kept under observation until the anesthesia wears off before you can go home.

This surgical procedure imparts a firmer, flatter abdomen that is proportionate to your body weight and type.

Different Types of Tummy Tuck Surgeries

The various types of tummy tuck surgeries are seen below:

  • Full Tummy Tuck ( or Complete Abdominoplasty): Incisions are made in the lower abdominal area and their lengths differ based on the amount of excess skin.
  • Mini Tummy Tuck (or Partial Abdominoplasty): The mini tummy tuck surgery requires shorter incisions and this procedure is recommended for people with less excess skin. Incisions are made in the region between the belly button and the lower abdomen. No incisions are created around the belly button.
  • Extended Tummy Tuck (high lateral tension abdominoplasty or circumferential abdominoplasty): As part of this surgery, long incisions around the front and back of your body are made, enhancing your overall appearance.
  • Fleur-de-lis Tummy Tuck: Vertical (side to side) and horizontal (top to bottom) incisions are made around the abdomen during this surgical procedure. This “T” shape resembles a lily flower or fleur-de-lis. This surgery is designed for people who have lost 45 kgs or more.
