Abdomen Surgery

Abdominal procedures tailored to contour, skin quality and proportion

Abdominal procedures are designed to refine contour, address excess skin or fat, and improve overall body balance.

The right approach depends on skin laxity, muscle separation, fat distribution, previous weight change and the degree of reshaping required.

Abdominal Contouring

Choosing the right procedure for the abdomen

Abdominal contour concerns can involve several different factors. Some patients mainly require targeted fat reduction, while others need skin tightening, muscle repair or more extensive removal of excess tissue.

This is why the abdomen should be assessed carefully rather than treated with a one-size-fits-all approach.

Options may include liposuction with Renuvion, abdominoplasty, mini abdominoplasty, extended abdominoplasty or fleur de lis abdominoplasty depending on anatomy and goals.

Treatment Planning

Matching the procedure to the underlying concern

The most suitable abdominal procedure depends on whether the main concern is fat, skin laxity, muscle separation or a combination of these factors.

Fat distribution

Where localised fat is the main concern, liposuction may be suitable.

Skin laxity

Loose or folded skin may require a surgical skin-removal procedure.

Muscle separation

Abdominal wall repair may be considered where muscle separation is present.

Weight-loss changes

Significant weight loss may require a more extensive reshaping approach.

Where excess skin extends beyond the central abdomen, extended abdominoplasty may be discussed.
