What to expect after abdominoplasty?
- Abdominoplasty is done in a hospital under general anaesthetic and you will be required to stay 2 nights in hospital.
- Pain/discomfort varies considerably from person to person. Medication to relieve pain will be prescribed.
- You will need to wear a compression garment for 4-6 weeks after surgery.
- There will be swelling and bruising after abdominoplasty. This will gradually subside with the help of bruising treatments, garment compression, and lymphatic drainage massages.
- Most patients gradually return to work after 3-4 weeks, depending on whether the muscle is tightened.
- No exercising for at least 6 weeks.
Possible risks and complications:
All surgeries carry risk. Although uncommon, it is important that all patients understand the possible risks and complications associated with abdominoplasty. These will be discussed in detail with you during your consultation with Dr Ying, and include, but are not limited to:
Bruising, swelling, pain, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, asymmetrical results, irregular contours, seroma, skin loss, skin loosening, haematoma, wrinkling, dimpling, infection, changes in sensation, poor scarring, nerve damage, fat embolism syndrome, local anaesthetic toxicity, wound breakdown, allergic reactions, stroke and/or heart attack, and atelectasis.
PLEASE NOTE
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
