Why Choose Abdominoplasty in Aberdeen?

Are you struggling to achieve a flat, toned abdomen despite regular exercise and a healthy diet?

Abdominoplasty, commonly referred to as a tummy tuck surgery, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen, while also tightening the abdominal muscles for a firmer, flatter appearance. This procedure can help patients achieve their desired body shape and boost their self-confidence.

Abdominoplasty is an ideal choice for individuals who want to address excess abdominal skin, tighten weakened abdominal muscles, and achieve a more toned and sculpted midsection. This procedure is especially beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or aging, and desire a flatter and more youthful abdominal profile. Abdominoplasty can also be very effective at removing stretch marks of the lower abdomen.

Abdominoplasty

What the Procedure Involves

Abdominoplasty involves the removal of excess abdominal skin and fat, as well as the tightening of the underlying muscles. The procedure begins with an incision made along the lower abdomen, carefully placed to be well-concealed within the natural contours. Excess skin and fat are then removed, and the abdominal muscles are tightened and sutured. Finally, the remaining skin is repositioned and sutured into place. At Profile Aesthetic, we use internal suturing techniques that allow us to perform this type of surgery without drains, improving comfort and speeding up recovery.

Types of Abdominoplasty

At Profile Aesthetic, we offer several types of abdominoplasty procedures to meet the unique needs and goals of our patients. These include:

  • Mini-Abdominoplasty: This procedure is recommended for patients with only a small amount of excess skin and fat in the lower abdomen.
  • Lipoabdominoplasty: Combining liposuction with a traditional tummy tuck surgery, this procedure removes excess fat and tightens the abdominal muscles for a sculpted, toned appearance.
  • 360 Degree Lipoabdominoplasty: Also known as a circumferential tummy tuck, this procedure removes excess skin and fat from the entire abdomen, back, and flanks, resulting in a complete body transformation.
  • Fleur de Lis Tummy Tuck: This procedure is recommended for patients with significant amounts of excess skin and fat in the abdomen, often caused by weight loss, pregnancy, or aging.

Who is a Good Candidate for Abdominoplasty?

The ideal candidate for abdominoplasty is someone who is in good health, close to their ideal weight, and has excess skin and fat in the abdominal area that has not responded to diet and exercise. It's also important to have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure.

How Much Does Abdominoplasty Cost?

The cost of abdominoplasty varies depending on the type of procedure you undergo and your individual needs. At Profile Aesthetic, we offer affordable pricing and financing options to make the procedure more accessible to our patients.

Recovery

The recovery time for abdominoplasty varies depending on the type of procedure you undergo. Following abdominoplasty, you will experience some swelling, bruising, and temporary discomfort in the abdominal area. Our team of specialist nurses will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions, including the use of compression garments and any necessary pain management. It's important to follow these instructions for a smooth recovery. Strenuous activities should be avoided during the initial healing period and you will have follow-up appointments to provide wound care and monitor your progress.
