Full Abdominoplasty
Full Abdominoplasty
If you suffer from excess skin, sagging, or severe deformation around your abdomen area after losing a large amount of weight, or you have sagging above the umbilicus, then you need a full abdominoplasty. Liposuction will be also planned for more effective and successful results.
Dr. Ozsular will first examine you to decide whether you need a full or mini abdominoplasty. The difference between these two procedures lies in the degree and place of deformation in your abdomen.
This operation is conducted under general anesthesia. First, your skin will be cut from your abdomen (staying inside the underwear). Next, the muscles under your abdominal skin will be repaired and converged to create an intermuscular integrity. Then, your abdominal skin will be brought up to the area beneath your breast, and your umbilicus will be reshaped. Any excess fat will be taken via liposuction to give your abdomen a flat look. Last, your abdomen will be sutured and closed in the same place it was first cut open, and a corset will be put on you. Abdominoplasty is an operation making your stomach area look more aesthetic.
