WHAT TO EXPECT?
CONSULTATION
Begin with a comprehensive consultation where we dive deep into your medical history, align with your aesthetic aspirations, and assess your suitability for the procedure.
PREPARATION
Gear up for your transformation. We’ll guide you through essential pre-surgery steps, from medical tests to lifestyle tweaks, ensuring you’re primed for success.
THE PROCEDURE
Rest easy under general anesthesia as our expert surgeon crafts your desired silhouette, removing excess, tightening muscles, and refining your abdomen’s overall appearance.
INITIAL RECOVERY
After your surgery, expect to take it easy and rest for about 10 days. This initial 1-2 week period is crucial for healing, and it’s normal to experience some discomfort and swelling.
GUIDED CARE
Your recovery will be supported with detailed instructions. This includes the importance of wearing compression garments to aid healing, reduce swelling, and optimize results. Additionally, prescribed medications will help manage pain and prevent complications.
ACTIVITY RESUMPTION
While you’ll be eager to get back to your routine, it’s essential to pace yourself. Gradually reintroduce daily activities over a few weeks, ensuring you avoid strenuous exercise at the outset.
PATIENCE PAYS OFF
While you’ll notice changes immediately, the final, stunning results of your procedure will become more apparent as swelling diminishes. Typically, within a few months, you’ll be able to fully appreciate the transformative power of your Tummy Tuck.
