Methods of abdominoplasty in Israel
Currently, there are four basic techniques for tummy tuck in our clinics:
- The standard method of abdominoplasty is to remove the excess skin, with the help of suturing the abdominal muscles and then the formation of a new navel through an incision in the bikini area;
- Mini abdominoplasty differs from the above method in some facts. During the operation the amount and the value of the slits are minimized. This significantly reduces the risk of complications, as well as terms of the rehabilitation period;
- Extended abdominoplasty in Israel is used in cases where there is a strong sagging skin on the abdomen, hips, thighs and upper regions of the back;
- Endoscopic abdominoplasty is useful if you need to tighten your stomach muscles and it doesn’t involve the removal of excess skin. This method is considered to be less traumatic and often is combined with liposuction.
The most often abdominoplasty in Israel is carried out using general anesthesia, but there are cases where local anesthesia is more appropriate for the usage. This means to perform two cuts in the abdomen and navel during the plastic surgery. After that, the part of the abdominal skin is gathered up and muscles are stitched to strengthen the abdominal wall. Thereafter, the excess skin is removed, and the navel is replaced to the center of the abdomen. Depending on the selected method and the patient's health the surgery can last from two to five hours.
After abdominoplasty surgery, the surgeons leave two tubes in the groin area through which the removal of fluid is performed. Also compression bandage is applied on the abdomen after abdominoplasty.
The rehabilitation period usually takes about a week after abdominoplasty in Israel. During this time the patient must stay in the hospital. In addition, next two months after the tummy tuck surgery it is necessary to wear a special compression garment and to refrain from strenuous exercises.
In some cases, during the abdominoplasty in Israel, hernia, which is located in the anterior abdominal wall, is removed. However, the surgeons do not recommend combining this type of plastic surgery with other operations.
