Stomach flab is a problem that many people go through, and is often not resolved with diets and exercise. Stomach flab is caused by skin losing its elasticity and excess skin left behind after weight loss. Skin has the ability to stretch to a certain point and beyond this point, new cells are formed to the cover larger areas. However, when you lose weight again, the extra skin is left behind and hangs off. Additionally the abdominal muscles (rectus muscles) are responsible for the shape and appearance of the abdomen; these muscles lose its elasticity over time, contributing to abdominal flab.
Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck is plastic surgery that removes the lose fat and skin from the abdominal area, restoring strength and structure to the muscles and skin. Sagging skin around the stomach occurs, especially in women after pregnancy, as well as with individuals with fluctuating weight, other abdominal surgery, fluid collection, aging, and is sometimes hereditary.
Tummy tuck is not a weight loss alternative but it helps you remove excess skin and fat after you have lost the weight. Attempting to lose weight after a tummy tuck surgery will result in more lose skin, and performing a second surgery is not usually recommended. Abdominal Reduction is performed in the area below the belly button and does remove stretch marks visible in that area. Removing flab helps narrow the waistline, and tone the abdominal section.
What to expect
Abdominoplasty surgery is the removal of lose skin in a horizontal axis between the belly button and the pubic border. A circular area around the belly button is cut out and a lengthy incision is made along the bikini line. The skin is gently detached from the abdominal muscle and lifted away. The connective tissue between the inner layer of skin and the abdominal muscles called the fascia is tightened by stitching them together permanently. The skin is pulled back down, and a second circular incision is made above the belly button. The belly button is brought out through this circular incision, the skin pulled down and stitched back with excess skin removed from below. Two small tubes are inserted into the area from the pubic region, to drain excess fluid. The operated section is covered and allowed to heal for six weeks.
Dangers
Women who are planning to undergo a tummy tuck should not plan to have any more children for at least a few years. Most women decide on a tummy tuck surgery after having all children. However, most women who have become pregnant after the surgery report few problems in discomfort and tightness.
Fluid collection beneath the skin or Seroma is a common problem faced by patients who have undergone an abdominal reduction. Plastic Surgeons leave tubes attached to drainage bags for the fluid to escape. Surgeons also remove excess fluid by needle suction during regular visits.
Patients who undergo abdominal reduction should refrain from smoking, as nicotine hampers the healing process causing death in recently operated skin cells. Diabetes also poses a threat and a full medical examination should be done prior to deciding on a tummy tuck surgery.
A tummy tuck, may causes reduced sensation in the abdominal area, but this should pass within a few weeks or months after the surgery.
