Who is the ideal candidate?
The ideal candidate for a tummy tuck procedure is a person who has not been able to tone their abdominal area, even with the help of a healthy diet and exercise routine. Although most people associate cosmetic surgery with women, male tummy tuck is a way increasingly used by men to flatten the abdominal area, which is difficult to tone. Abdominoplasty is also a fairly common method for women to recover their figure after pregnancy. As with any plastic surgery procedure, the results of tummy tuck surgery can vary, and candidates should discuss their goals in order to set reasonable expectations. In addition, patients must make a commitment to maintain results by eating a stable diet and regular exercise after undergoing a tummy tuck.

Abdominoplasty FAQS
Keep wounds clean and dry using an antiseptic solution and sterile gauze, and do not apply any type of cream or ointment.
During the abdominoplasty postoperative period, both the skin and the remaining fat may be somewhat inflamed, with fluid retention, and even edema, for several weeks. That is why it is recommended to wear a special girdle after the treatment that prevents the accumulation of liquid and speeds up recovery.
After abdominoplasty you will be able to return to a normal diet. But during the first few days, and until the intestinal rhythm normalizes, it is advisable to eat more times and in smaller quantities. Also, eat easy-to-digest foods and eat a high-protein diet for 4 weeks after surgery.
Stretch marks represent a big problem for many patients. Depending on the distribution of stretch marks through the abdominal skin, many, if not all, of these can be removed during a tummy tuck.
