Abdominoplasty

Each of us dreams of a flat and firm abdomen. Unfortunately, in some situations even intense and regular exercise is not enough to achieve this. Excess flabby abdominal skin after pregnancy or weight loss, unfortunately, sometimes does not shrink on its own. In some patients, after pregnancy, the so-called striae of the rectus abdominis muscles develops, the elimination of which also requires surgical treatment. In such a situation, it is worth opting for abdominal plastic surgery, the so-called abdominoplasty, which is the reduction of fat tissue and stretching of the skin improving the appearance of the abdomen and waist.

The next step to a perfect figure

Abdominal plasty is performed under general anesthesia. The skin is cut from one hip spike to the other - below the underwear line. In addition, an incision is made in the navel area. Excess skin and fat is removed, a new navel area is created. Most often, the straight muscles of the abdomen are also modeled to accentuate the waist. With a small fold of skin, a so-called miniabdominoplasty can be performed, where the navel remains in place.

For a period of several days after the procedure, the patient must be in a slightly stooped position. The abdomen is swollen and painful. An extremely important element in abdominal plastic surgery is our individualized program of Comprehensive Perioperative Care. Before surgery, patients are taught optimal ways to move, rest and use kinesitherapy. In addition, we recommend taking advantage of the scar elimination program (PSM).

Abdominal plastic surgery is a more invasive operation than liposuction; however, it allows for better tightening of sagging skin. Recovery time may vary depending on the patient's condition and general predisposition. The hospital stay is 2 - 3 days. After about two weeks, you can return to work if it is not too physically demanding. The final aesthetic effect is visible after 6 - 12 months.

Feedback from our patients

"You get to know the best doctor in a crisis. That's how I met Dr. Szczyt and his fantastic clinic. Something that wasn't supposed to happen sometimes does happen—without going into details, it happened to me after abdominal plastic surgery. I will always remember how professionally I was treated, how Dr. Szczyt always had time for me and was in complete control of the turbulent situation, how he made sure that even though blood unexpectedly flooded my pants, I didn't feel a shred of stress—I felt that this man knew what he was doing and that I was in the best hands. I have great respect for his experience, composure, and even his ability to defuse a difficult situation with a joke. By the way, no one else has ever asked me if someone had ever rubbed my belly “from the inside” :-) Well, in this regard, I can promise that you will be the only one, Doctor :-) Once again, thank you to your entire team, especially Ms. Agnieszka from the treatment room—an angel, not a woman! You are wonderful, hats off to you all!

"On April 10, I underwent abdominal plastic surgery, which was performed by Professor Arthur Pasternak, MD. From the very beginning - already at the preparation stage - I felt extremely taken care of. Every element of the procedure was explained to me in detail and calmly: what will be done, by whom, how the recovery will proceed, what to pay attention to when I return home. This approach gave me great mental comfort and a sense of security. The entire staff was incredibly kind, caring and professional. The atmosphere in the clinic was warm and full of kindness, which - combined with the competence of the team - made me feel like I was in the best hands. Although the healing process is still ongoing, I can already say one thing - the effects are visible, and the difference between what I came in with and what I see today is huge. The change is not only in the body, but also in my mood and self-confidence. I am very pleased with the choice of Prof. Dr. Arthur Pasternak and the care I have also received from Dr. Aleksandra Rymsza, who was also involved in my treatment process. These are exceptional specialists with great experience, personal culture and human approach, which are of great importance to the patient in medicine. I thank them from the heart for such a beautifully conducted process. I would recommend anyone considering this treatment - it is worth entrusting yourself to specialists with such class, empathy and utmost professionalism. "

“I had a consultation with the doctor and I am impressed by his professionalism. Unfortunately, the doctor did not perform abdominoplasty due to current contraindications for the procedure, which I regret very much, but on the other hand, he did not close the door on the possibility of performing the procedure in the future. He explained the problem and possible solutions in great detail. I wholeheartedly recommend him.”

FAQ

Answers to frequently asked questions about a variety of treatments and procedures.

Is abdominal plastic surgery reimbursed by the nfz?

In some cases, such as after gastric surgery in pathological obesity, abdominal plasty can be performed under National Health Insurance. Our clinics perform abdominal plasty only on a commercial basis.

Is abdominal plastic surgery safe?

Yes. During the consultation, the doctor assesses the patient's health and examines him for this particular operation. Only those patients whose risks associated with the surgery are minimal undergo the operation.

Are there complications after abdominal plasty?

A hematoma, a pool of blood in the tissues, or seroma, a buildup of lymph, may occur. Both of these complications require surgical intervention. Blood supply to the tissues above the scar may also be affected - smokers are more prone to this complication, which is why it is important to give up smoking during the perioperative period.

Abdominal plastic surgery how long does it hurt?

Abdominal plasty is not associated with much pain. Pain medications work very well in this case and cause the patient to experience discomfort rather than pain. It lasts about 10 days.
