How Should I Sleep 2 Weeks After A Tummy Tuck? [Solved]
If you’ve had surgery, Dr. Sajjadian suggests you kick back and relax for three to four weeks. Depending on the procedure, a tummy tuck with long incisions may require an extra week of chillin’ in a recliner to help your body heal.
Preparation: Before undergoing a tummy tuck, it is important to get adequate rest and nutrition in the weeks leading up to the procedure. This will help ensure that your body is in optimal condition for surgery and recovery.
Anesthesia: During a tummy tuck, general anesthesia or intravenous sedation will be used to keep you comfortable during the procedure.
Incision: The surgeon will make an incision along the lower abdomen, usually from hipbone to hipbone, in order to access the underlying tissue and muscles of the abdominal wall.
Excess Skin Removal: Excess skin and fat are removed from the abdominal area through this incision, creating a smoother contour of your midsection.
Muscle Repair: The surgeon may also repair weakened or separated abdominal muscles by suturing them together for improved strength and support of your core muscles.
Closing Incisions: After all necessary procedures have been completed, incisions are closed with sutures or surgical tape for optimal healing results and minimal scarring after surgery has healed completely
If you’ve been wanting to get a tummy tuck but haven’t had the time, now’s your chance! Sleep weeks are becoming increasingly popular, allowing you to take a few days off work and get the procedure done. So don’t wait any longer - go ahead and book that appointment! You’ll be glad you did.
