How is the Procedure Done?

Combination with Other Procedures:

Abdominoplasty can be combined with complementary body contouring procedures, such as liposuction or breast augmentation, to achieve comprehensive body rejuvenation and harmonization.

Pain Management:

During the procedure, patients are under general anesthesia to ensure they feel no discomfort. Afterward, any post-operative pain can be effectively managed with prescribed medications as needed.

Preparing for the Surgery:

  • Arrange for transportation to and from the surgical facility.
  • Follow any pre-operative instructions provided by Rejuuvmed surgeon, including fasting before the procedure if necessary.



Alternatives:

Non-surgical alternatives to Abdominoplasty may include minimally invasive procedures such as body contouring treatments using radiofrequency or ultrasound technology. However, these options may provide limited results for individuals with significant skin laxity and excess fat.
