Abdominolasty
                           Yes Together we can plan the new you!
Maybe you once had a tight, "washboard" abdomen, but ever since your last pregnancy you just can't get your old shape back. Or maybe you've always had a soft, prominent "belly" that you could only dream would go away. Loose or sagging abdominal wall skin is frequently associated with abnormal relaxation of the anterior abdominal wall muscles. It is not possible to tighten abdominal wall skin with exercise alone.Fortunately, a procedure known as an abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, can remove excess folds of skin and tighten your abdominal muscles to create a lean, flat, and better defined abdomen. Abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, can remove excess folds of skin and tighten your abdominal muscles to create a lean, flat, and better defined abdomen. In a tummy tuck, a "bikini line" incision is made, excess skin and fat are removed, and your abdominal muscles are tightened to flatten out the bulge. If your abdominal fullness and loose skin are confined to the area below the belly button, you may be a candidate for a "mini" abdominoplasty, which has a shorter incision and limits the tightening to the lower abdomen. However, if the fullness and skin laxity involve your entire abdomen, then you would likely need a full abdominoplasty to get the best result. After a tummy tuck, a compression garment or a girdle is worn for 4 - 6 weeks as normal activities are gradually resumed. Heavy lifting or any other activity which would strain the abdominal muscles repaired by a tummy tuck is restricted for 6 weeks. Dr. Kalra has used his personal technique of abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to give many women a flat, sculpted, and more athletic appearing abdomen. It is a very safe and predictable technique, and it has become one of our most popular procedures.
 
Intended Result:

Procedure is performed under general anesthesia. An overnight stay is usual for a standard abdominoplasty. (Mini-abdominoplasties may be performed as an outpatient procedure.) But overnight stay after general anaesthesia is preferred.
Mini-abdominoplasty tightens the lower abdominal wall skin (below the "belly-button") only. Standard abdominoplasty tightens all of the abdominal wall skin and muscles.
Additional Procedures that may Enhance the Result:
Liposuction
Breast procedures
Thigh lift
The patient goes home with an abdominal binder, which will need to be worn for two months. Initial discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication which is taken for 7 to 10 days. Sutures are removed in stages between day 7 and day 14 after surgery. Bruising and swelling decrease in 10-14 days, but can last 2-3 WKS
Possible Risks and Complications:  
The specific risks and the suitability of this procedure for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. All surgical procedures have some degree of risk. Minor complications that do not affect the outcome occur occasionally. Major complications are rare.
