Research has shown that 91% of women are unhappy with their appearance.

Whether you like it or not, your body is constantly changing. Over time, your skin will begin to sag and, in some cases, begin to stretch. We all have little flaws we secretly wish we could change.

Some like the idea of liposuction but worry about the pain, potential infections, and scars. Yet tummy tucks involve many of these concerns. Luckily, there have been advancements in modern medicine to make this option more accessible.

Not sure if a tummy tuck is for you? Here’s everything you need to know about tummy tucks. Let’s jump in!

What Is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure used to remove excess fat and skin from the abdomen. Tummy tucks are usually performed on people with significant weight loss and loose skin around their midsection or on women who have had multiple pregnancies. There are several types of tummy tuck surgery, and the best option for each patient will depend on their individual needs and goals. 

The Benefits of a Tummy Tuck

One of the main benefits is that it can help tighten the skin and muscles in the abdomen, resulting in a flatter and firmer stomach. It can also help to improve the appearance of stretch marks and scars, making you feel more confident in your appearance. In addition, a tummy tuck can also improve your health by eliminating or reducing the health risks associated with excess abdominal fat.

How a Tummy Tuck Is Performed

The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and takes about two to four hours to complete. During the procedure, the surgeon makes an incision in the lower abdomen, just above the pubic area.

The excess skin and fat are then removed, and the underlying muscles are tightened with sutures. The incision is then closed with sutures or surgical tape. 

Recovery Process

The recovery process after a tummy tuck can vary depending on the individual. Most people report feeling sore and tender for the first few days following surgery. During this time, it is essential to rest and sleep as much as possible.

The swelling and bruising will gradually dissipate over the next two to three weeks. It is important to avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting during this time to allow the incisions to heal properly.

Many people feel that their energy levels and strength return to normal by four to six weeks after surgery. So if you are considering a tummy tuck, you must consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and expectations. 

Risks and Complications

Tummy tuck risks and complications can include infection, bleeding, and scarring. The most common complication after a tummy tuck is having a seroma.

It is usually harmless and can be drained with a needle, but in rare cases, it can become infected. So it’s vital to seek medical attention if you notice any changes in your skin. 

Your Guide to Tummy Tuck Procedure

A tummy tuck is a major surgery that should not be taken lightly. Be sure to do your research and consult with a plastic surgeon to determine if you are a good candidate for the surgery.

Once you have decided to proceed with the surgery, follow your surgeon’s pre-and post-operative instructions to ensure a successful outcome.
