Abdominal Liposuction Surgery – All You Want to Know (2024)

Liposuction is a versatile procedure that is combined with many cosmetic procedures to get enhanced results. One such procedure is abdominoplasty, where many experienced and skilled surgeons combine liposuction with tummy tuck to give that most desired waistline contouring. In this blog, you will learn all about abdominal liposuction procedures.

Let’s begin.

The Role of Liposuction in Abdominoplasty

When it comes to achieving a sleek and toned abdomen, liposuction surgery plays a critical role in enhancing the results of an abdominoplasty. While abdominoplasty focuses on removing excess skin and tightening the abdominal muscles, liposuction targets and removes stubborn fat deposits that do not go away even after serious workouts and diet regimes.

Why is Liposuction Combined with Abdominoplasty?

Combining liposuction surgery with abdominoplasty offers several key benefits:

• Enhanced Contouring: Liposuction allows for precise fat removal using the latest technology, such as MicroAire, helping to sculpt the waistline and create a more defined abdominal profile.
• Comprehensive Fat Reduction: This combination provides more thorough and lasting results by addressing both surface and deep fat layers.

• Improved Skin Retraction: Liposuction can stimulate skin tightening with the help of VASER, the latest liposuction tool. This complements the skin removal and muscle tightening of an abdominoplasty.

The Procedure: What to Expect

Abdominoplasty with liposuction is performed under general anaesthesia. The process begins with liposuction, where a board-certified plastic Surgeon makes small incisions to insert a cannula, a thin tube that suctions out fat from targeted areas. This step is crucial for removing stubborn fat pockets and refining the overall shape of the abdomen.

Following liposuction, the surgeon proceeds with abdominoplasty. A horizontal incision, which remains hidden in the skinfolds, is made just above the pubic area. Excess fat and tissue are removed, and the underlying muscles are tightened. The combination of these procedures usually takes about 3-5 hours, depending on the extent of the surgery.

Recovery and Results

Recovery from abdominoplasty combined with liposuction surgery involves wearing a compression garment to minimize swelling and support the healing tissues. Initial recovery generally takes about two weeks, during which light activities can be resumed. However, full recovery and the final results can take a few months as swelling subsides and the body adjusts to its new contours.

Benefits Beyond the Physical

The benefits of combining liposuction surgery with abdominoplasty extend beyond just physical appearance. Patients experience a significant enhancement in self-esteem and body image after the surgery. Clothes fit better, and there’s a renewed sense of confidence that permeates every aspect of life. Imagine feeling comfortable and proud of your reflection every single day.

Choose the Right Surgeon

Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience is the key to achieving the best results. Look for a surgeon who is not only skilled in abdominoplasty and liposuction but also understands your individual needs and concerns. A good surgeon will take the time to explain the procedure, answer your questions, and provide personalized care from consultation through recovery.
