Abs Surgery For Men in Atlanta, GA


When you think about plastic surgery for abs, your mind probably goes right to the popular surgery called a “tummy tuck” that many women undergo to regain their pre-pregnancy shape. But abdominoplasty is not just for women, and more men are choosing abs surgery to help them deal with loose skin and stubborn fat that diet and exercise cannot fix.

If you have lost a significant amount of weight, or aging has left you with excess fat and loose skin that has accumulated on your midsection, ab surgery for men may be the perfect solution for you. IBI Plastic Surgery and Med Spa offers plastic surgery for abs for men to help create a firmer, more defined, and toned-looking midsection.

What Is Abs Surgery For Men?

An abdominoplasty is a surgery that is designed to tighten up ripped or damaged abdominal muscles and eliminate excess fat and loose skin to improve the appearance of the midsection. It is also more commonly known as a tummy tuck, but that term is most often used when this surgery is used to improve the appearance of a woman’s abdominal region.

Many men notice their midsections changing as they get older due to their skin losing its elasticity, with excess fat settling around their belly, giving them a “dad bod.” Abdominoplasty surgery can correct these issues and help men achieve a more youthful and athletic-looking physique.

Abs Surgery for Men | SurgiCare Arts

Abs surgery for men is a popular request of our patients at SurgiCare Arts & Aesthetics. Although the majority of cosmetic procedures on abs are designed for both women and men, for some reason tummy tucks or liposuction are rather associated with procedures for women. The reality is that men, especially after a weight-loss surgery, do quite often undergo abs sculpting procedures. Likewise, abs etching is a desirable procedure for those men who are aiming to achieve a better definition of their abs.

Who Is A Candidate?

Men who make good candidates for abdominoplasty surgery are usually at or close to a healthy weight, do not smoke, and are in good health. They have excess fat, extra skin, and weak or damaged abdominal muscles that do not respond to diet or exercise but have realistic goals about what the surgery can and cannot do.

Plastic surgery for abs can provide the finishing touches for a man who has lost a significant amount of weight because it removes hanging skin and stubborn fat deposits that are often left behind.

Procedure Steps

Abs surgery for men is done almost exactly as a tummy tuck is done for women, using basically the same steps.

1

General anesthesia is administered to ensure the patient remains asleep and comfortable during the surgery.

2

Dr. Angelina makes carefully targeted incisions in the abdominal area to perform the type of abdominoplasty needed to make the necessary corrections that will deliver the desired results.

3

She will remove excess fat using liposuction, which will deliver smoother results and will also make it easier to access the abdominal muscles.

4

Next, she will make any repairs needed to the abdominal muscles so they are tight and will provide better core strength. Tightening and lifting up these muscles will help improve your posture, reduce back pain, and make your abs look flatter and more toned.

5

Then she will eliminate any skin that is loose or hanging down so the skin that remains will fit tightly over the newly tightened muscles. The remaining skin will be pulled taut and secured in place with stitches to produce a tighter-looking and smoother stomach. Depending on the extent of the surgery, she may need to reposition the belly button so the new, more toned abdominal area looks natural.

6

The incisions are closed using carefully placed stitches as well as surgical tape if it is needed to stabilize the wounds to ensure they heal properly and do not pull apart.

7

Once Dr. Angelina completes the surgery, a special compression garment will be put on your abdominal area that you will need to wear for about six weeks, which will help mitigate swelling and keep any bruising to a minimum.

Recovery

Recovering from ab surgery usually takes about six to eight weeks, and during that time it is very important that you follow all the instructions provided by Dr. Angelina to ensure your recovery goes smoothly.

  • Right after surgery, you will wake up with dressings over your belly button and incisions, and you may or may not have surgical drains;
  • You will be prescribed pain medication that can be used the first few days to help ease your discomfort, and if you have drains, you may also be given a prescription for antibiotics to prevent infection;
  • A member of our medical team will help you take short, slow, but frequent walks around the room to help lower the risk of blood clots;
  • You will need to wear a compression garment around your abdomen for about six weeks, which will help reduce fluid buildup as you heal. Dr. Angelina will also give you guidance on the best ways to sit or lie down so you do not put too much strain on your incisions;
  • It is very important to keep all your follow-up appointments so Dr. Angelina can check on your healing progress, answer questions, and prevent any complications.

Results

The results of abdominal surgery for men depend on how much correction was done, how much loose skin or fat needed to be removed, the surgeon’s expertise, and how well the patient takes care to follow their aftercare instructions.

In most cases, men see a significant improvement in the appearance of their entire midsection. Their stomach is flatter, their waist is more defined, and their entire torso has a more sculpted, athletic shape.

When the abdominal muscles are repaired, many men also notice better posture, stronger core support, and, in some cases, fewer lower back issues.

Before And After

The difference in how a man looks and feels before and after ab surgery can be dramatic, and it is not only about having a flatter, more toned stomach. Many men notice better mobility, improved posture, and more comfort while going about their daily life. Clothes tend to fit better, and simple things like sitting in a car or airplane can feel much more comfortable without the extra skin or weight around their midsection.
