Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) | Dr. Lina Triana
Regain your confidence and feel good in the mirror again. Abdominoplasty removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles for a firmer, more balanced figure.
Factors such as pregnancy, genetics, or weight changes over time make abdominal muscles lose their tone with subsequent skin elongation, leaving stretch marks, protruded abdominal walls and fat deposits on abdominal region.
The Abdominoplasty or Tummy Tuck is combined with Liposculpture that helps regain shape by removing excess fat from abdominal area; this is also known as lipoabdominoplasty.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Abdominoplastia (Lipectomia)
Are you a candidate for tummy tuck?
The ideal person for a Tummy Tuck is the one with excess skin, loss of abdominal muscle tone and stretch marks. It can be performed both on men and women.
What recommendations should I follow before Abdominoplasty?
Women are advised to have completed their reproductive cycle in order to preserve and extend surgery results. To those who’ve had gastric bypass, or a considerable weight loss based on diet and/or exercise, it is recommended to reach their ideal weight and size before surgery according to their body and age.
How is Tummy Tuck performed?
This surgery last about 3 hours, and it is usually performed in combination with a Liposculpture. Before surgery I mark the areas to work on. The incision will go from hip to hip on the lower abdomen so it can be disguised with underwear. Not only will fat and extra skin be removed during the procedure, but also muscles will be sutured on the midline to improve the area’s muscle tone. A drain is typically left for about a week after surgery.
What about after tummy tuck recovery?
After surgery you will spend one night at the over- night facility where surgery takes place. No exercise should be practiced for the next two months, and a tight garment should be worn during the same time.
For better recovery I recommend at least 10 post-surgical treatments. It is also important to improve nutritional habits in order to keep surgery results.
