Abdominoplasty: Definition and Firming of the Abdominal Contour

The abdominal region is susceptible to alterations that significantly compromise body aesthetics. In addition to the accumulation of fat, sagging skin, the appearance of stretch marks, previous pregnancies, and lack of physical activity, contribute to the appearance of voluminous abdomens, without definition, and with flaccid muscles. Many of the aesthetic alterations of the abdomen can be corrected with surgery, however, depending on the procedure, the scars may be long and there may be a need to perform additional procedures such as liposuction.

Abdominoplasty, abdominal lipectomy or tummy tuck is the procedure in which we remove excess skin and fat from the lower region of the abdomen, redo the umbilical scar, reposition the muscles in the deepest plane and correct the excess skin in the sides. The scar can be more or less long depending on the excess skin, and is located above the pubic hairs following a natural fold of the skin, and must be hidden by the bikini. The umbilical scar should be as natural as possible.

In some cases where the upper abdomen is smooth and without sagging and there is a small excess of infraumbilical skin, it is possible to perform a less aggressive procedure with minor scars, the mini-abdominoplasty. Anesthesia can be general, epidural, or spinal. The patient leaves surgery with drains and there is presence of swelling and ecchymosis. In the postoperative period, it is recommended to combine lymphatic drainage massage for greater patient comfort.
