When patients come into the clinic, a UK trained plastic surgeon with expert knowledge make a full assessment.
The reasons sought for surgery are established and what they hope to achieve as a result of having an Abdominoplasty.
The amount of fat & skin is assessed to establish the type of abdominoplasty that best suits each individual.
The body may have undergone changes due to losing weight, a thorough assessment of their suitability for anaesthetic must be made in order to preserve patients safety.
It is important for the patient to be appropriately counselled to understand the whole process including surgery and after surgery.
Patients are given at least 2 weeks to make a considered decision and only once both patient and surgeons, are happy does the patient proceed to surgery
