⚠️ What Are the Risks of a Tummy Tuck? Here's What You Should Know
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) can dramatically improve your body contour by removing excess skin and tightening abdominal muscles — but like any surgical procedure, it does carry risks and potential complications. Being aware of these risks helps you make an informed decision and prepare for a safe recovery.
🧪 Common Risks of a Tummy Tuck
🔹 Infection – Can occur at the incision site or deeper within the abdominal tissue. Antibiotics and sterile techniques help reduce the risk.
🔹 Bleeding – Excessive bleeding may happen during or after surgery, potentially requiring further intervention.
🔹 Blood Clots (Deep Vein Thrombosis) – Though rare, clots can travel to the lungs and become life-threatening. Early movement and compression garments help prevent this.
🔹 Scarring – Scars are inevitable but typically placed low on the abdomen and fade over time. Scar care products can help improve appearance.
🔹 Numbness or Sensory Changes – Temporary or permanent numbness in the lower abdomen is a common side effect.
🔹 Seroma – This refers to fluid buildup under the skin, which may need to be drained.
🔹 Poor Wound Healing – Sometimes the incision may heal slowly or reopen, especially in smokers or those with certain medical conditions.
👨⚕️ Minimizing Your Risk
Choosing an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to reduce your risks. Your surgeon will:
✔️ Review your medical history
✔️ Guide you on smoking cessation and medication adjustments
✔️ Provide detailed pre- and post-op care instructions
