What are the factors to consider before undergoing tummy tuck surgery?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Abdominoplasty, also referred to as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure that removes extra skin and fat from the belly and strengthens the abdominal wall muscle. Patients in poor health, such as those with severe cardiac illness, cirrhosis, or uncontrolled diabetes, are not good candidates for this treatment. Smoking harms abdominoplasty as the treatment requires an appropriate blood supply. Many plastic surgeons consider current smoking as a contraindication to surgery. Seroma (fluid buildup), wound infection, and skin flap necrosis (death of the skin owing to a blood supply deficit) may be some of the complications associated with abdominoplasty.

I hope this helps. Thank you.
