Circumferential Abdominoplasty Abu Dhabi
Circumferential abdominoplasty, also known as a belt lipectomy or lower body lift, is a surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance and contour of the abdomen, buttocks, hips, and thighs. It is often performed on individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or have loose, sagging skin in the lower body area.
During a circumferential abdominoplasty, an incision is made around the entire waistline, typically extending from the back to the front of the body. The surgeon then removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal area, tightens the underlying muscles if necessary, and repositions and re-drapes the remaining skin to create a smoother, firmer appearance. In addition to the abdominal region, the procedure can also address the buttocks, hips, and thighs by lifting and tightening the tissues in those areas.
Circumferential abdominoplasty is a major surgical procedure that requires general anesthesia and a hospital stay. The recovery period can vary depending on the individual and the extent of the surgery but generally involves several weeks of limited activity and the use of compression garments to support the healing process. It's important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by the surgeon to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of complications.
As with any surgical procedure, circumferential abdominoplasty carries certain risks, such as infection, bleeding, scarring, and potential complications associated with anesthesia. It's important to have a thorough consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss your specific goals, expectations, and any concerns you may have before deciding to undergo this procedure. The surgeon will assess your candidacy for the surgery and provide you with personalized recommendations based on your unique circumstances.
