Leg Stretching

Some patients may experience sagging of the legs, especially the inner part, after obesity surgeries. In such cases, the problem can be easily resolved by surgical intervention. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia. An evening stay at the hospital is sufficient. The procedure is performed with a longitudinal incision of 20-25 cm on the inner side of the legs. After the operation, it is necessary to avoid the sun for at least 6 months in order to leave less scar. Again, the cream to be given for this purpose should be used for at least three months.

Tummy Tuck

After obesity surgeries, up to 30% of patients develop abdominal sagging that will disturb the patient. One year after the operation, these patients can have a tummy tuck. It is possible to have a brand new look with abdominoplasty surgery.

Tummy tuck surgery may take 2–5 hours depending on the procedure. An incision line is often made, which can be hidden under underwear and is 8–10 cm below the navel and above the pubis hairy area. Think of it as a slightly longer cesarean scar. A second incision is made to transfer the belly button around the navel. After the operation is over, the incision line is closed under the skin with hidden stitches and covered with dressings. One or two tubes called drains are placed in order to take out the excess liquid that will be collected in the area. Usually one evening stay in the hospital is sufficient. A cream will be given after the procedure for less scarring. You should use it for about three months.

During this period, your surgeon will remind you of some points that must be followed. If you smoke, you should take a break from 2 weeks before to two weeks after abdominoplasty. If you are using it, take a break from vitamin E and aspirin during this period and avoid heavy diet regimens before surgery.

Wondering:

  • You can get pregnant after a tummy tuck.
  • In the following years, if needed, abdominoplasty can be done again.
  • The scar remains in the laundry area

Arm Lift

Some patients may have sagging arms after obesity surgeries. In such cases, the problem can be easily resolved by surgical intervention. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia. An evening stay at the hospital is sufficient. The procedure is performed with a longitudinal 10-12 cm incision on the inner face of the arm. After the operation, it is necessary to avoid the sun for at least 6 months in order to leave less scar. Again, the cream to be given for this purpose should be used for at least three months.

Breast Reduction

After weight loss, sagging occurs in the breasts as the fat tissue in the breast decreases. Surgical intervention can be performed for at least one year after the operation or after the weight loss process is over. Excess skin tissue in the breast is removed and the breast is hung upwards. The procedure is done under general anesthesia. One evening at the hospital.

Breast size causes severe back and shoulder pain in women, and skeletal shape and posture disorders in the long term. Both breast reduction and breast lift are performed in these patients.
