The abdominoplasty procedure is performed after the patient is administered general anesthesia. Depending on the type of surgery you require (a partial abdominoplasty or a full abdominoplasty), incisions may be made across your lower tummy. The skin is then separated from the walls of your abdomen and realigned with the muscles. Any excess fat and skin is removed, and the remaining skin is stitched back into place.
Duration
2 to 5 hours.
Anesthesia
General.
Recovery time
4 to 6 weeks.
