Circumferential Tummy Tuck - Total Waistline Makeover
A circumferential tummy tuck reshapes droopy skin in the lower abdomen, lower back, buttocks, and waist. The sagging skin often results from significant weight loss or bariatric surgery. A 360-degree circumferential tummy tuck is a holistic approach for people requiring massive transformation.
Are you an ideal candidate for a full circumferential tummy tuck?
Circumferential abdominoplasty removes loose skin and excess tissue from the lower and upper abdomen, including the waistline. To undergo this massive transformation, you must meet the following criteria,
- Good physical and emotional health
- You had bariatric surgery to address obesity
- Lost more than 70 pounds of weight
- Uncomfortable with excess fat and skin in areas challenging to tone, such as the abdomen, buttocks, and outer thighs.
- Individuals with realistic expectations after circumferential abdominoplasty procedure.
Circumferential tummy tuck is exclusively designed for formerly obese patients who wish to achieve the desired shape and muscle tone after massive weight loss. Dr Frank Conroy will examine your midsection and determine whether you’re an ideal candidate for this comprehensive procedure.
360 circumferential tummy tuck - What is the procedure for a midsection makeover?
👉 The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia, where a plastic surgeon creates a circumferential incision around the waistline. 👉 The surgeon will combine liposuction and other techniques to remove excess skin or fat from the lower back, abdomen, waistline, and midsection areas. 👉 The droopy or loosened abdominal muscles are tightened, and the belly button is positioned. 👉 After completing the desired changes, the surgeon will close the incisions. 👉 The circumferential abdominoplasty procedure takes four to six hours, and patients are monitored in the recovery room afterwards. |
Circumferential tummy tuck recovery - Reimagine your sculpted body
A full circumferential tummy tuck is generally a safe procedure. However, you may notice some discomfort in the abdominal region after the surgery. Unlike any other surgery, you might experience discomfort such as pain, inflammation, uneasiness, etc., but these symptoms subside within a few days.
- The doctor will provide pain medications to ease discomfort and antibiotics to prevent infection.
- Walk slowly after a few days of rest to reduce the occurrence of blood clots.
- Most circumferential abdominoplasty patients resume their routine activities after four weeks.
- Regular follow-up is essential to monitor your progress. Doctor consultation is mandatory before resuming heavy activities.
