Sometimes abdominoplasty is insufficient to treat excess skin and fat in the abdomen.
Body-lift after tummy tuck surgery can be proposed.
The residual excess may be at the level of the flank or at the level of the back. Occasionally the excess occurs at the level of the pubis.
In these cases, a global assessment is defined in consultation and the options for complete surgery are discussed with the patients concerned by this problem.
The real limit for this type of surgery is presented by the presence of complications at the first surgery (hematoma, hernia, necrosis).
A precise assessment will be presented to you during your consultation.
