What is Lipoabdominoplasty?
A lipoabdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that combines liposuction and abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen.
This surgery will improve the appearance of the stomach area, creating a flatter, more toned appearance and a more defined waistline.
Your surgeon can customise procedures to address particular concerns, such as stretch marks, sagging skin, or pockets of excess fat.
Why is lipoabdominoplasty better than a traditional abdominoplasty?
Lipoabdominoplasty lets your surgeon remove fat and excess skin and tighten the stomach muscles to give the abdomen a smoother, more contoured appearance than a traditional tummy tuck.

Am I a good candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction?
If you are concerned about the appearance of your abdominal area and are in good health, you may be a good candidate for this procedure.
Many of our lipoabdominoplasty patients have lost significant amounts of weight and have been left with excess skin on their abdomen.
Others are women who have completed their families and want a solution to the problem of overstretched skin and stubborn abdominal fat left after pregnancy as well as repairing the rectus muscle sheath.
Another group of patients is men who want to maximise the appearance of their abdominal area to achieve a more sculpted look.

Is this a weight loss procedure?
Liposuction is a body contouring technique, and removing large quantities of fat in this way could be dangerous.
In fact, this procedure produces the best results in patients who are already at a healthy weight but have specific problems with excess skin and stubborn fat on the abdomen.
Your surgeon may advise you to lose weight before your procedure to ensure the best outcome.
The lipoabdominoplasty procedure
Before you decide upon surgery, you will have an initial consultation with a plastic surgeon who will assess your suitability and explain the procedure and recovery process in detail.
Once you have committed to surgery,had a second consultation and completed your pre-operative health checks, you are ready for your operation in our state-of-the-art operating theatre.
A tummy tuck with liposuction is performed under a general anaesthetic and takes between 3 and 4 hours.
The surgeon will make a long incision above the pubic area within the bikini line and remove excess fat with liposuction where necessary. The stomach muscles will be tightened if divided .Excess skin will be trimmed, and the wounds will be closed with dissolving stitches.
Recovery and aftercare at our clinic near Harrogate
You can choose to stay in overnight or,as most of our clients do ,return home to the comfort of their own bed. Patients can shower the day after surgery; although mobilising is essential, you should avoid overexertion.
It may be several weeks before you can engage in vigorous exercise, and your surgeon will guide you through your recovery time to ensure you achieve the desired results.
Patients must wear a compression garment to support the stomach muscles and promote healing for up to 6 weeks.
We prioritise our patients’ aftercare as it is the key to avoiding complications by identifying problems before they occur.
Your surgeon will check your healing at regular outpatient appointments and advise when you can resume gentle exercise, usually a couple of weeks.
Are the benefits of an abdominoplasty with liposuction permanent?
Maintaining a healthy diet and doing plenty of exercise can help to preserve the benefits of your procedure.
