Tummy Tuck

Many people have become more aware of their appearance in recent times, and this growing awareness aligns with advancements in plastic surgery. In this article, we will discuss abdominal skin tightening and provide comprehensive information on the causes of abdominal sagging and suitable solutions. Additionally, we will explore the different types of abdominal sagging and address the most common questions individuals might have about tightening abdominal skin.

A sagging belly is loose skin and weakened muscles in the abdomen, causing it to appear wrinkled and less toned. The abdominal area becomes disproportionate. This condition causes considerable anxiety and discomfort, especially among women. In this article, we will discuss the appropriate solutions and how to implement them.

• Multiple pregnancies and births cause the abdomen to be stretched and taut during pregnancy, and after delivery, sagging often appears clearly.

• Intensive diet plans that cause rapid weight loss may result in abdominal sagging.

• Bariatric surgeries may lead to abdominal skin sagging.

• Late-night high-fat meals not only contribute to weight gain but may also cause sagging.

• Aging.

• Genetic factors.

Two types of surgeries are guaranteed to tighten abdominal sagging:

• Full tummy tuck: A horizontal incision is made from one thigh to the other above the pubic area, followed by a second incision around the navel to separate the surrounding skin. The muscles are revealed and tightened using surgical sutures.

• Partial tummy tuck: A simpler procedure, with a smaller incision. It is suitable for individuals with excess skin and sagging in the lower abdomen and below the navel.

Tummy tuck after weight loss or after bariatric surgeries is an essential step in improving the body’s appearance, as well as making it easier to choose clothes and achieve an ideal, toned look.

Abdominoplasty is suitable for both women and men who have sagging in the abdominal area, especially below the navel. As mentioned earlier, sagging can occur after bariatric surgeries or multiple pregnancies. We guarantee remarkable results with the best plastic surgeons in Egypt, specializing in abdominal skin tightening.

Some precautions must be taken into account before deciding to undergo a tummy tuck:

• Women who wish to undergo this surgery should not plan to get pregnant for at least a year, as pregnancy may undo the muscle-tightening effect.

• Comprehensive medical tests (blood glucose and liver tests) should be performed to ensure the patient is fit for surgery.

• The procedure is not suitable for individuals with extreme obesity.

• The surgery is not recommended for individuals under the age of 18.

• Blood thinning medications should be stopped two weeks before the surgery.

• The patient should fast for 6 to 12 hours before the surgery, as advised by the doctor.

The cost of abdominoplasty in Egypt is not fixed, as several factors influence the price:

• The tools used vary in cost due to economic conditions.

• The experience of the plastic surgeon and his success rate in performing tummy tuck surgeries.

• The medical team assists him before and after the surgery and during the follow-up period.

• The level of the hospital where the procedure takes place.

• The type of tummy tuck surgery, whether the surgery is partial or full tummy tuck.

• The reasons behind abdominal sagging, as costs may differ for post-birth sagging, weight loss sagging, or laser treatments.

On our website MedTripFinder, every plastic surgeon is considered one of the best for tummy tuck surgery in Egypt due to their impressive track record.

• The first step, as in most surgeries, is anesthesia (general anesthesia).

• The surgery lasts around 4 hours.

• The surgeon will mark the abdomen area where the surgery will take place.

• The incision is made, and it varies depending on whether the procedure is a full or partial tummy tuck. The skin is separated, muscles tightened, excess skin removed, and the incision is stitched. Two tubes are placed below the abdomen to drain fluids.

• A compression belt is placed around the abdomen.

• The partial tummy tuck does not involve tightening around the navel area, which is only done during a full tummy tuck.

• The partial tummy tuck is much simpler than the full tummy tuck.

• After the surgery, the patient will be moved to the recovery room to ensure the procedure’s safety.

• The patient can leave the hospital the following day.

• Results of tummy tuck appear within two weeks.

Some instructions must be followed immediately after the procedure to ensure the safety of the surgery and to achieve the desired result. 

Here are some important tips to follow after tummy tuck surgeries in Egypt:

• The patient needs to wear the compression belt continuously for 6 weeks.

• The patient should regularly check the wound and remove the secretions during the first week.

• The drainage tubes are removed after three days.

• The patient should stay at home for two weeks and engage in light walking to avoid clot formation.

• Lifting heavy weights is strictly prohibited for the first two months post-surgery.

• Exercise should be avoided in the initial period after surgery.

• Avoid foods that cause gas and bloating in the abdominal area, as this can put pressure on the tightened muscles and affect their firmness.

• Drink plenty of fluids.

Though rare, like any surgery, there could be some complications such as:

• Wound infection.

• Surgery failure, leading to worsened skin sagging.

• In some cases, a hernia or bowel prolapse might occur.

• Rarely, bleeding from the wound area.

If these complications arise, consult your doctor immediately for prompt medical attention.

I live in an Arab country and I was suffering from severe sagging in the abdominal area after giving birth. I tried various methods, including exercise and a healthy diet, but I did not notice any improvement. The only solution left for me was to undergo tummy tuck surgery. I researched online and found the best plastic surgeons in Egypt via MedTripFinder at very special prices, which are more affordable compared to other countries. Indeed, I contacted customer service, traveled to Egypt, and successfully underwent the surgery. The results exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend MedTripFinder for anyone seeking tummy tuck surgery in Egypt; you’ll be pleased with the experience and will never regret this step.

This procedure is non-invasive and is preferred by many who wish to avoid general anesthesia and surgery. However, the laser tummy tuck is suitable for certain cases, especially for those who suffer from mild sagging. The procedure is done over several sessions, each lasting about 30 minutes, with a 4-6 week interval between sessions.

The cost of laser tummy tuck surgery in Egypt is also variable due to many factors, as mentioned earlier.
