Is your stomach a trouble area? Is going on a diet and exercising not working at all to fix it? Were you formerly overweight and the weight loss resulted in excess skin? If any of this is true, then tummy tucks could be answer.
Tummy tucks are called an abdominoplasty in medical terms. It is a cosmetic surgical procedure that many people get so they can lose the excess skin or fat from the stomach. It is the only choice for people that were overweight and need the extra skin to be taken off completely.
Before you decide to have it done, be sure to check the history of the plastic surgeon. See the extent of the time they have been in practice and whether they have had lawsuits or complaints filed against them. Also, check out the details on their certification. It is important to check when picking out a surgeon because you will be trusting your life to them during surgery.
You must undergo a consultation before having it done. At this time, you will address questions such as the reason you want the surgery and what you expect out of it. All allergies and medical conditions must be disclosed to the surgeon along with information on any medications you are taking.
The procedure begins with anesthesia and then the incisions. After it is complete, the incisions will be closed. You will probably be put on medication after surgery while in recovery. Be aware there are risks involved that can occur after surgery. Some of them are scarring, bleeding, infection, blood clots, skin discolorations, swelling, asymmetry, loose skin, pain, and nerve damage.
So if tummy tucks are something you want to get, remember to be safe and do research. Any surgical procedure must be carefully thought about because there are risks. Do not rush the decision and be thoughtful.
