Lipo-abdominoplasty is a combination of liposuction and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) designed to remove excess fat and tighten abdominal muscles. It reshapes the waistline and creates a flatter, firmer abdomen for a more toned appearance.
Lipo abdominoplasty is an advanced body contouring procedure that combines liposuction with traditional abdominoplasty. This technique not only removes excess fat but also tightens loose skin and strengthens weakened abdominal muscles, resulting in a flatter, firmer, and more proportionate midsection.

Lipo abdominoplasty is a comprehensive surgical procedure that reshapes the abdominal area. Here’s an overview of how the treatment works:
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation with Dr. Sanjay. During this session, your medical history, body shape, and aesthetic goals are evaluated, and a tailored treatment plan is developed.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the surgery.
Initially, liposuction is used to precisely remove excess fat from the abdominal area as well as the flanks, if needed. This step improves overall body contour and provides a smoother transition between areas.
After liposuction, a horizontal incision is made along the lower abdomen. Excess skin is removed and the underlying muscles are tightened. This dual approach achieves a tighter abdominal wall and a more youthful midsection.
Once fat removal, skin excision, and muscle tightening are complete, the incisions are carefully closed with sutures. These incisions are typically placed low on the abdomen to minimize visible scarring.
Proper preparation is essential to ensure a safe procedure and optimal results. Follow these preparation steps before your lipo abdominoplasty:
Fasting Instructions: If general anesthesia is used, detailed fasting instructions will be provided prior to the procedure.
The lipo abdominoplasty procedure is performed in a safe and controlled surgical environment. Below are the steps involved:
General anesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort throughout the surgery.
Dr. Sanjay begins by performing liposuction to remove excess fat and contour the abdominal and flank areas. This step enhances the overall body shape.
Following fat removal, the excess skin is excised, and the abdominal muscles are tightened to create a firm and toned midsection.
Once the desired contour is achieved, the incisions are closed meticulously to minimize visible scarring and support optimal healing.
Post-operative care is an essential part of achieving excellent results and a smooth recovery. Follow these aftercare guidelines:
Follow-Up Appointments: Attend scheduled follow-up visits to monitor your recovery and healing progress.
Recovery after lipo abdominoplasty varies among individuals, but general expectations include:
Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are common during the first few days. Most patients can begin light walking within a day or two to promote circulation.
Swelling gradually decreases, and early improvements in contour become more apparent. Normal activities can be resumed with care, while strenuous tasks should still be avoided.
Complete recovery may take up to three to six months. Once swelling fully subsides, your final results will be visible, showcasing a flatter, firmer, and more sculpted abdomen.
