A Doctor You Can Trust!When you want to, or have to get Plastic Surgery done, it is rightfully a frightening concept to come to grips with. The internet is so full of bad examples and uncommon issues

Local tourism options What you need to know about Tummy Tuck in Cape Town
Also known as abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck is a surgical procedure to create a toned, firm, and flat abdomen by removing excess skin and fat. It has both cosmetic and medical benefits as it can tighten the abdominal muscles, restore the contour of the belly, improve posture, correct hernia, and reduce stress urinary incontinence.
A tummy tuck is suitable for people who want to remove excess skin due to a significant weight loss, aging, or pregnancy. However, not everyone can undergo the procedure. Your surgeon may not allow you to undergo the procedure if you plan to lose a significant amount of weight, you might want to get pregnant in the future, have a body mass index (BMI) that is greater than 30, smokes, have a severe chronic condition, and had an abdominal surgery that caused scar tissue in the past.
What's the Recovery Time for Tummy Tuck Procedures in Cape Town?
The recovery period after a tummy tuck depends on various factors, such as your general health, body weight, and age. In general, you may be able to go back to work (if your job does not require a lot of physical activities) and perform light exercises (such as walking) within 2 to 3 weeks after the surgery. You may need to wait for about 6 to 8 weeks until you can go back to your full normal routine, including performing vigorous activities. Still, your body will continue to heal for a few more months, so it’s better to take it easy until your surgeon allows you to return to your full activity.
What's the Success Rate of Tummy Tuck Procedures in Cape Town?
Most patients who have had a tummy tuck reported that they achieve positive results.The Tummy Tuck has exhibited a noteworthy record of success, with a plethora of patients revealing remarkable enhancements in self-concept and perception of physical appearance following the procedure. Nonetheless, it's crucial to harbor genuine prospects and apprehend that the outcomes of the procedure may not always be as anticipated, as they hinge on personal factors such as body framework, genetic inclinations, and lifestyle habits such as exercise and alimentation.
The proficiency of the surgeon and the facilities of the clinic where the procedure transpires greatly influences the success rate. Another pivotal success determinant should be the satisfaction of the patients with the outcomes. Hence, patients are motivated to actively participate in the decision-making procedure, sharing their aspirations and receiving feedback on attainable results.
Only about 3.1% of people developed complications following the surgery.
