Mommy Makeover
The surgery is to remove excess Skin and Fat from the middle and lower abdomen in order to tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. This surgery is usually sought by patients with loose or sagging tissues after pregnancy or major weight loss. Abdominoplasty operations vary in scope and are frequently subdivided into categories. Depending on the extent of the surgery, a complete abdominoplasty can take from 1 to 5 hours. A partial abdominoplasty (mini-tuck abdominoplasty) can be completed between 1 to 2 hours.
Recovery
- Can take one to four weeks and patients are advised to take at least a portion of this recovery time off from work.
- Heavy activity especially is best avoided during this time.
- A supportive abdominal compression garment can minimize swelling and support the repaired tissues. This compression garment is also effective in helping the skin in the treated area conform to its new shape.
- Full recovery takes 3–6 months, with further fading of scars thereafter. Scars may appear red and prominent at first, but with proper care, they heal into a thin, silvery line.
