Tummy Tuck: Abdominoplasty Surgery Information
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Will I have any scars after my tummy tuck?
Yes. An incision is generally made from one hip to the other along the bikini line, which could later be camouflaged by underwear. The scar for an abdominoplasty is usually placed across the lower abdomen. It can stretch from one side to the other depending on the size of the stomach. All surgery results in some sort of scar and all scars take time to soften and fade. You will not see the final appearance of your scar for up to a year after surgery.
Q: Is there anything I can do to reduce scarring or bruising?
For the first day or two after an abdominoplasty most doctors recommend that you have as much rest as possible. Some patients feel that applying vitamin E or aloe vera to the scar may help. If you apply these creams do not rub the scar for about six weeks because you can damage the fragile new tissue. If you have tapes or stitches in place, do not use any cream or lotion unless instructed.
Q: How will I feel emotionally after surgery?
Many patients feel emotional after surgery. Some patients even become depressed. If this does happens to you, do not feel that you are alone or frightened. It will almost certainly pass.
Q: Is Abdominoplasty a good way to lose weight?
No. Diet and exercise are the best means of removing unwanted fat. An abdominoplasty can be a solution to eliminating unwanted, unsightly excess skin that is caused by weight loss.
Q: Can men benefit from abdominoplasty?
Yes, there are now many men that are also taking advantage of abdominoplasty for treating a large stomach.
