The popularity of the medical center not only in Israel but also far beyond its borders can be easily explained by the following facts:

1. Abdominoplasty at Top Ichilov is managed by highly experienced surgeons.
2. The clinic can be described as a model of comfort: in private cozy rooms, patients feel at home.
3. The patient coordinator will communicate with them in their native language (the absence of a language barrier plays a significant role in maintaining patients' peace of mind).

Types of Abdominoplasty

Tummy tuck is a complex and extensive procedure during which the surgeon not only removes excess skin and subcutaneous fat but also corrects muscle diastasis, forms a new navel opening, and repairs the aponeurosis. Abdominoplasty typically lasts 2 to 4 hours. It can only be performed if there are no contraindications to the procedure, so each patient at Top Ichilov undergoes an examination before the tummy tuck. Abdominoplasty can be mini or full.

Mini Abdominoplasty

If the changes in the abdominal area are not very significant, the patient undergoes mini abdominoplasty. The doctor makes a horizontal incision above the pubic bone, lifts and secures the skin and fat, and sutures the abdominal muscles. After that, excess skin and subcutaneous fat are removed, and the edges of the surgical wound are pulled together and sutured.

Full Abdominoplasty

During full abdominoplasty, the doctor also makes an incision not only along the bikini line but also around the navel. By connecting the abdominal muscles, the surgeon forms the navel in the correct position. After excising excess fat and skin, the incisions are sutured. The results of the surgery are evident — after a short period, the patient's abdomen becomes tight and firm.

Postoperative and Rehabilitation Periods

Since abdominoplasty is a lengthy open surgery performed under general anesthesia, the patient must remain in the hospital for 2 to 3 days after it is completed. During this time, they may experience swelling at the incision site and accumulation of exudate (fluid, bloody discharge) in the postoperative wound. To facilitate drainage, doctors leave a drainage tube or rubber in the incision during suturing. Scheduled dressings are performed for 10 days after discharge from the hospital. For a quick recovery after surgery, the patient must follow the recommendations given to them:

• Exclude physical activities for a while;
• Wear compression garments;

One month after discharge from the hospital, the patient should visit the surgeon, who will visually assess the speed of the tissue regeneration process of the scar.

The presence or absence of a noticeable scar on the abdomen depends on the qualifications of the surgeons. At Top Ichilov, true professionals work, who are well-versed in all the subtleties of applying cosmetic sutures and use only the best high-quality suture materials. That is why, after a certain period, scars from abdominoplasty become less noticeable and practically do not stand out on the skin.
