What is a Tummy Tuck?

Tummy Tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure performed to reduce abdominal fat. The result is a slimmer and firmer abdomen.

How is a Tummy Tuck procedure done?

To perform a tummy tuck procedure, first general anaesthesia is administered. For patients with large tummies, the surgeon will cut the abdomen horizontally between the hip bones and contour the abdominal muscles, skin and tissues. The surgeon will place drainage tubes under the skin if required. Patients with fat deposits only below their navel will need a shorter and less complex procedure where the surgeon will make a smaller incision and perform key-hole surgery, inserting a small camera to see what needs to be done.

What are the alternatives to a Tummy Tuck?

Alternatives to a tummy tuck procedure are liposuction procedures, diet and exercise, and radiofrequency or laser assisted procedures to reduce abdominal fat.

What is the recovery time after a Tummy Tuck?

Patients recover from a mini or partial tummy tuck procedure within a month but full recovery after a full tummy tuck procedure will take about 6 months.

Tummy Tuck vs Mini Tummy Tuck

The full tummy tuck procedure is employed when patients require the contouring of the entire abdominal region. The procedure takes about four to five hours to complete. It takes about six months to completely recover from a tummy tuck procedure. A mini tummy tuck procedure is for patients who have excessive localized fat in their lower abdomen. The procedure is minimally invasive and takes about one hour. Patients recover from a mini tummy tuck procedure within a month.

How long does swelling last after Tummy Tuck?

Swelling after a tummy tuck procedure may last for about six months.

That is an unusual and rare skillIrene, UK, 07 04 24

Dr. Maresky first interviewed me online about 6 months ago, after I had read all his reviews. I always found him honest, and very direct and provides excellent feedback and guidance through what is essentially putting your life in someone’s hands. We discussed each step in the surgical process and with his guidance, I was able to address all of the trauma injuries which I had for many years after 6 and a half hours of surgery I was able to begin the road to recovery. It takes an extraordinary skill to do what Dr. Maresky does to the very highest level and he is absolutely one of the best regardless of your skin tone, black or white. That is an unusual and rare skill. I would highly recommend treatment with Dr Maresky, you are in capable skilled hands, and the entire medical team at Christian Barnard Hospital Capetown were superb. I spent a month pre- and especially post-surgery. I even had a nurse Mercy to care for me for the first few days post-op. Which was very reassuring. I believe that I have had one of the best plastic surgeons in the world. No regrets.

He has always been friendly and keeps his patients well informedHennie, South Africa, 11 01 22

I have known Dr Meintjes since 1986. Over the years, he has performed various minor surgeries on myself, my wife and our youngest daughter. His service has always been excellent, nothing too small for him. He has always been friendly and keeps his patients well informed. Always has time for the smallest of surgeries required. Hope that he will be around for a good number of years to come and wish him all of the best.
