Abdominoplasty and breast augmentation

Abdominoplasty, known also as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at providing a flatter, more pleasing abdomen. This is achieved by removing excess fat and skin from the middle and lower abdomen and by tightening the muscles of the abdominal wall.

This procedure can be completed in a surgical center, office or hospital, and typically involves either general anesthesia or local anesthesia combined with sedation. Two to five hours is typically required to complete the procedure.

The surgeon will start by making an incision from hipbone to hipbone, along with another incision which frees the bellybutton from its adjoining tissue. The abdominal muscles are revealed by separating and lifting the skin. The surgeon will then tighten these muscles. The skin flap is then brought back down and the surplus skin removed. Once a new hole is cut for the bellybutton, it is then stitched into place, and the incisions are then closed.

After the procedure, most patients can go back to work within two to four weeks, though more strenuous activities should be avoided for four to six weeks. The following potential risks and complications can occur with abdominoplasty surgery: bleeding under the skin flap, blood clots, conspicuous scarring, infection, poor healing, skin loss, and the need for additional surgery.
