Panniculectomy Body Contouring

What Is Panniculectomy Body Contouring?

Panniculectomy body contouring is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen, often following massive weight loss. Unlike a tummy tuck, it focuses solely on skin removal rather than muscle tightening.

Benefits of Panniculectomy Body Contouring

  • Eliminates Excess Skin – Removes hanging skin after weight loss.
  • Reduces Skin Irritation – Prevents rashes and infections caused by excess folds.
  • Improves Mobility – Enhances ease of movement and comfort.
  • Boosts Confidence – Helps achieve a more contoured appearance.

Types of Panniculectomy Surgery

  • Traditional Panniculectomy – Focuses on excess skin removal in the lower abdomen.
  • Extended Panniculectomy – Removes excess skin from the flanks and hips.
  • Combined with Liposuction – Enhances contouring by removing stubborn fat deposits.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

  • Individuals with large amounts of excess abdominal skin.
  • Patients suffering from skin infections or mobility limitations due to excess folds.
  • Those who have maintained a stable weight after significant weight loss.
  • Individuals in good overall health with realistic expectations.

Recovery & Aftercare

Recovery from panniculectomy surgery varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Patients should avoid strenuous activities, wear compression garments, and follow post-operative care instructions for optimal healing.
