Tummy Tuck

After checking the suitability of the patient and making sure they are ready for surgery, the Lerra Clinic doctor starts the process of anesthesia for the tummy tuck. This can take up to 5 hours, depending on the specific case. Once the procedure is confirmed as safe and appropriate, the doctor makes a surgical incision in the lower abdomen and above the pubic area. Then, they remove all the excess skin and tissues, as well as any appendages that need to be sewn on. Once this is done, they tighten the new skin to the original shape. In some cases, it may be necessary to move the navel location based on the amount of sagging skin. A tummy tuck may be accompanied by liposuction. Liposuction and tummy tuck are two complementary procedures. Liposuction and abdominoplasty can be performed in one procedure, depending on the doctor's preference for the same case.
