Abdominoplasty Test

1. Incision: A horizontal incision is made to allow access to the underlying muscles and fat.
2. Muscle Repair: In order to create a firmer abdominal wall in patients with diastasis recti, the abdominal muscles are tightened and sutured together.
3. Removal of Excess Skin and Fat: To enhance the lower abdominal contour, the surgeon needs to remove excess skin and fat.
4. Repositioning of the Navel: In a full abdominoplasty, the belly button may need to be repositioned to maintain a natural look.
5. Closing the Incision: Surgical sutures are inserted to close the incision, and drainage tubes may be placed to keep fluid from collecting.

• Individuals with excess skin, fat, or muscle separation in the abdomen
• In patients who have lost a significant amount of weight or have gone through pregnancy-related changes
• Non-smokers who are in good general health
• Procedure expectations that are realistic
• Those who have maintained a stable weight and do not plan future pregnancies

Before Surgery

• Maintain a Stable Weight: Ensure that you achieve your optimal weight and maintain it for several months prior to the procedure.
• Stop Smoking: Smoking can hinder healing, so you should quit at least six weeks before surgery.
• Prepare for Recovery: From the moment you return home, arrange for someone to drive you home and assist you.

After Surgery

• Follow Your Surgeon’s Instructions: Wear compression garments, keep the incision clean, and avoid strenuous activities.
• Manage Discomfort: Patients often experience mild to moderate discomfort, which can be managed by prescribed pain medications.
• Attend Follow-up Appointments: You should check in with your surgeon periodically to monitor your recovery.
