Lower floor correction
The ideal candidate is a woman after childbirth with a “roll” and stretched skin below the navel with a good upper section: through an incision along the bikini line, the flap is mobilized to the navel, the diastasis of the lower half is sutured and strengthened with mesh (prevention of recurrence of protrusion), excess skin is excised. The navel remains in place, the scar is shorter, drainage is 1–2 days, hospitalization is 2–3 days. Compression 6 weeks; the result is a flat lower abdomen and a reliable abdominal wall.
Indications
- skin-fat “apron” after childbirth and significant weight loss;
- diastasis of the rectus muscles with protrusion and back pain;
- stretched skin with stretch marks below the navel, contour deformation;
- combination with hernias of the white line and umbilical (simultaneous plastic surgery).
What does abdominoplasty give?
The operation solves three problems simultaneously: removes excess skin and fat (apron), restores the muscle corset by suturing the diastasis along the entire length and forms an aesthetic contour with a new position of the navel. In case of concomitant hernias, their repair with mesh is performed in the same operation - according to the price list, the mini-option already includes a mesh implant. Conditions for success: stable weight (surgery is not a method of losing weight), quitting smoking within a month, compression and patience - the final result is assessed after six months.
