Has anyone here had a panniculectomy?

Question

(Plastic surgery to remove the "apron" of skin left behind after a loss in belly fat.)

If you have, how long did you feel pain?

Also, I love to surf, swim, and dance. How long would it take me to get back to these activities?

Answer 1

Yes, what you mention is also known as a tummy tuck or abdomen dermolipectomy. You'll feel some pain a few days after the surgery, and you'll have to avoid sports for about 30 days.
