For many individuals, the abdominal area can be challenging to address, even with dedicated exercise and healthy eating habits. Both Liposuction and Abdominoplasty are procedures designed to reduce excess fat in this region, but they serve different purposes and suit different candidates.
Vaser Liposuction
Liposuction is a targeted fat removal procedure designed to address excess fat in specific areas of the body, including the abdomen. Techniques like Vaser Liposuction use ultrasound-assisted energy to remove fat cells while stimulating collagen production.
- Shorter recovery times compared to traditional liposuction.
- Often performed under twilight sedation.
- Best suited for individuals with good skin elasticity and strong core muscles.
- Can target multiple areas in one session, depending on individual circumstances.
Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty is a more involved procedure designed to address excess skin and fat in the abdominal area. while also tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles. This procedure is often chosen by individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or multiple pregnancies and are left with excess skin and muscle weakness.
- Requires an incision extending across the lower abdomen, typically from hip to hip.
- Repairs abdominal muscles for improved strength.
- Performed under general anaesthesia due to the complexity of the procedure.
- The scar is placed along the underwear line.
To determine which option is a more suitable fit for your needs, we recommend consulting with a qualified practitioner.
