Abdominoplasty Surgery
Abdominoplasty, is a type of surgery that can flatten your stomach by removing excess skin and fat and tightening your abdominal muscles. Though not all of them, it can also aid in the removal of stretch marks from your lower abdomen. It’s preferred when a flabby abdomen with frail muscles affects body contour or after a large loss of weight. The vast majority of patients say they feel more confident as a result of this procedure.
Are you a good candidate?
It’s time to change when you see that your diet and exercise efforts are lowering the numbers on the bathroom scale but not altering the appearance of your sagging and protruding tummy.
The followings are a few of the most common justifications if you are considering a tummy tuck:
- If you have extra skin on your stomach, weak abdominal muscles, or both due to aging, genetics, previous surgery, or weight fluctuations.
- If you’re in good physical shape. You must be in really good physical condition to tolerate this treatment.
- Your weight has not changed. Slim individuals with extra body fat and slack skin in their lower abdomen are the best prospects; if you are overweight, this treatment is not for you.
- If you have a lot of intra-abdominal fat surrounding your internal organs, you might need to lose weight before thinking about a tummy tuck.
- If you’re in good physical shape. You must be in really good physical condition to tolerate this treatment.
If you are in good general health, have a positive outlook, and have realistic expectations, you are probably a good candidate for this procedure.
Full Abdominoplasty
In addition to the incision across the lower abdomen, a conventional tummy tuck for males also involves an incision around the navel. Excess skin is removed, muscles are tightened, and liposuction may be used to sculpt the belly. From above the navel down to the pubic region, this surgery eliminates skin that has been harmed by pregnancy, congenital laxity, or obesity.
Mini Abdominoplasty
Men who have laxity or protrusion below the navel may benefit from a mini-tummy tuck.
A mini-tummy tuck is often advised for those who have always been in good condition but are unable to reach their cosmetic objectives through diet and exercise alone. The pubic region receives a single incision that runs the length of your abdomen and is made as low as possible. Through this incision, the surgeon will trim excess skin and tighten slack muscles.
When should you get a tummy tuck?
- If your excess skin, stretch marks, or stomach fat does not react to a diet or exercise program.
- If your stomach has altered shape as a result of significant weight loss.
- If your protruding abdomen makes you feel self-conscious.
- If your stomach shape makes you feel self-conscious.
