Introduction to Extended Tummy Tuck in Mumbai

Are you struggling with excess skin and fat around your midsection that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise? An extended tummy tuck might be the solution you’re looking for. At HealR.co.in, we offer this advanced body contouring procedure to help you achieve the sleek, toned appearance you desire.

What is an Extended Tummy Tuck?

An extended tummy tuck, also known as an extended abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen, flanks, and lower back. This comprehensive approach provides more extensive contouring than a standard tummy tuck, making it ideal for patients who have experienced significant weight loss or have stubborn fat deposits in these areas.

Key differences between standard and extended tummy tuck:

Standard Tummy Tuck	Extended Tummy Tuck
Focuses on the front of the abdomen	Addresses the abdomen, flanks, and lower back
Shorter incision	Longer incision that extends around the flanks
Less extensive fat removal	More comprehensive fat removal and contouring
Suitable for moderate skin laxity	Ideal for significant skin laxity and excess fat

Benefits of Extended Tummy Tuck

Choosing an extended tummy tuck at HealR.co.in can provide numerous benefits:

1. Comprehensive body contouring: The procedure addresses a larger area, resulting in a more harmonious overall appearance.
2. Removal of excess skin and fat: Eliminates stubborn fat deposits and sagging skin that resist diet and exercise.
3. Muscle tightening: Strengthens and tightens abdominal muscles, improving core strength and posture.
4. Improved body shape and proportions: Creates a more balanced silhouette by addressing multiple problem areas simultaneously.

The Extended Tummy Tuck Procedure

At HealR.co.in, our experienced surgeons perform extended tummy tucks using advanced techniques to ensure optimal results and patient safety.

Pre-operative Consultation and Planning

Before the procedure, you’ll have a thorough consultation with one of our board-certified plastic surgeons. During this meeting, we will:

• Assess your overall health and medical history
• Discuss your goals and expectations
• Explain the procedure in detail
• Take measurements and photographs for surgical planning
• Provide pre-operative instructions

The Surgical Process

The extended tummy tuck is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes 3-5 hours to complete. Here’s what you can expect during the procedure:

1. Anesthesia administration: Our anesthesiologist will administer general anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the surgery.
2. Incision: The surgeon makes a horizontal incision that extends from hip to hip, curving around the flanks. This longer incision allows for more extensive contouring.
3. Fat removal and muscle tightening: Excess fat is removed through liposuction, and the abdominal muscles are tightened to create a firmer midsection.
4. Skin removal and repositioning: Excess skin is trimmed away, and the remaining skin is redraped over the newly contoured abdomen and flanks.
5. Closure: The incisions are closed with sutures, and drains may be placed to prevent fluid accumulation.

Recovery and Results

Recovery from an extended tummy tuck typically takes 4-6 weeks. Here’s what you can expect during the recovery period:

• Week 1-2: Rest at home, wear compression garments, and avoid strenuous activities.
• Week 3-4: Gradually return to light activities and work (if non-physical).
• Week 5-6: Resume most normal activities, but continue to avoid heavy lifting.
• Week 6+: Full recovery and return to all activities, including exercise.

Final results will become apparent as swelling subsides, typically within 3-6 months after surgery. To maintain your results, it’s important to follow a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and regular exercise.

FAQs: Extended Tummy Tuck in Mumbai

Question	Answer
1. What’s the difference between an extended tummy tuck and a standard tummy tuck?	An extended tummy tuck addresses the abdomen, flanks, and lower back, with a longer incision extending around the sides. It’s more comprehensive than a standard tummy tuck, which focuses mainly on the front of the abdomen.
2. Am I a good candidate for an extended tummy tuck?	Ideal candidates are those with excess skin and fat in the abdomen, flanks, and lower back, often due to significant weight loss or pregnancy. You should be at a stable weight and in good overall health.
3. How long is the recovery period?	Most patients return to normal activities within 4-6 weeks, with full recovery taking up to 3 months. You’ll need to avoid strenuous activities for at least 6-8 weeks post-surgery.
4. Will there be visible scarring?	While there will be a scar, it’s typically placed low on the abdomen and can be concealed by most clothing and swimwear. The scar usually fades over time.
5. How much does an extended tummy tuck cost in Mumbai?	Costs vary based on individual needs. HealR.co.in offers competitive pricing for the Mumbai market and provides financing options. A consultation is needed for an accurate quote.
6. Is the procedure safe?	When performed by board-certified plastic surgeons like those at HealR.co.in, extended tummy tucks are generally safe. However, as with any surgery, there are some risks which will be thoroughly discussed during your consultation.
7. Will I lose weight with an extended tummy tuck?	While you may lose some weight from removed excess skin and fat, it’s not primarily a weight loss procedure. It’s best for contouring the body after weight loss or pregnancy.
8. Can I combine an extended tummy tuck with other procedures?	Yes, it’s often combined with procedures like liposuction or breast surgery for more comprehensive body contouring. Your surgeon can discuss suitable options during your consultation.
9. How long do the results last?	Results can be long-lasting if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Significant weight fluctuations or pregnancy can affect the results.
10. Should I wait until after I’m done having children to get an extended tummy tuck?	It’s generally recommended to wait until you’re done having children, as pregnancy can undo the results of the surgery. However, this can be discussed with your surgeon based on your individual circumstances.
