Abdominoplasty Surgery An abdominoplasty or ‘tummy tuck’ is an operation designed to reshape the entire abdomen. The modern tummy tuck removes excess skin, fat and tightens any loose musculature to create a flat tummy and svelte waistline. Liposuction is required in nearly all cases to add the finishing touches to your contour. Two types of tummy tucks can be performed. A full tummy tuck, which is the most common procedure, and a rarer ‘mini’ tummy tuck.
Technique Full Tummy Tuck Abdominoplasty surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and you are usually in hospital for three nights. There is mild pain post-operatively, which is easily controlled with a combination of intravenous analgesia and oral analgesia, with patients using oral medication at time of discharge. A full tummy tuck targets both the lower and upper abdomen. The entire abdominal skin is re-draped and the abdominal wall musculature is tightened. The umbilicus (belly-button) is also moved into a more appropriate location. A mini tummy tuck is a smaller procedure which principally concentrates on tightening and reshaping the lower abdomen. A horizontal incision is placed in the pubic region, along the ‘bikini line’ (or utilising your caesarean scar should you have one). The final scar is designed to fall discreetly within your undergarments, lingerie and/or swimsuit lines. If your abdominal muscles are separated (for example after pregnancy) then these are bound back
