Risks and complications of Abdominal Etching
Abdominal Etching carries some risks and side effects that the patient should be aware of before deciding to undergo this surgery. We provide you with some of the possible risks and side effects of abdominal etching below.
1.Uneven contouring:
The first one is uneven contouring. This is when the fat removal is not done symmetrically or evenly, resulting in dents, bumps, or irregularities in the shape of the patient’s abdomen. It can affect the aesthetic result and your satisfaction with the operation.
2.Excessive swelling:
The second one is excessive swelling. It is when the fluid accumulates in the treated area, causing discomfort, pain, and inflammation. It can delay the process of healing and obscure the outcomes. The swelling usually subsides in a few weeks, however, in some cases, it may persist for months or need drainage.
3.Infection:
It is when bacteria enter the incisions or the fat tissue, causing redness, fever, pus, or foul-smelling discharge. Infection may lead to side effects like necrosis, abscesses, or sepsis. Infection can be prevented by keeping the wounds dry and clean and taking antibiotics.
4.Bleeding:
Blood leaks from the blood vessels or the incisions, which cause hematoma, bruising, or anemia. Bleeding can be prevented by avoiding blood thinners and aspirin before and following the procedure.
5.Nerve damage:
The nerves are damaged during the fat removal, causing tingling, numbness, or loss of sensation in the treated area. Nerve damage can be permanent or temporary, mostly depending on the severity and location of the injury. It can affect the quality of life and the ability to feel pleasure or pain.
6.Wrinkling:
The skin becomes saggy or loose after the fat removal, especially in older individuals or those with poor skin elasticity. It can make the patient’s abdomen look aged or unattractive. Wrinkling can be avoided by choosing a well-experienced surgeon who can assess your skin condition and recommend proper treatments.
The recovery process of Abdominal Etching
The recovery period of abdominal etching is the process after the procedure when the body heals and adjusts to the changes.
The recovery process of six-pack surgery is painless and it takes around 2 to 3 weeks. Immediately after the surgery, one may need to wear a compression garment for some weeks to make sure that they heal smoothly. The patient shouldn’t shower for at least 48 hours following the procedure.
One should follow the doctor’s instructions on how to care for their wounds, such as changing bandages or applying antibacterial ointment. avoid strenuous activities, like lifting heavy objects, twisting, or bending, for about 4 weeks after the operation. In addition, maintain a regular exercise routine to prevent fat accumulation and keep the abdominal muscles toned.
If you notice any unusual symptoms, immediately visit or call your doctor. The doctor needs to be informed about your condition. Make sure to take medications prescribed by your doctor. The desired result may take about 6 months to show itself.
The results of Abdominal Etching
Abdominal etching is different from traditional liposuction. In traditional liposuction, fat simply will be removed from your midsection. Abdominal etching strategically eliminates fat. It leaves some fat deposits behind to improve the look of the abdominal muscles. Abdominal etching is not a weight loss operation. This surgery works for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight and have healthy muscle and skin tone. The important thing is to find a trained and licensed provider who has experience in this regard.
The outcomes of abdominal etching are usually visible around 3 to 6 months after the procedure when the skin has retracted. The good news is the outcomes are permanent, as long as the patient maintains a healthy lifestyle and refrains from significant weight gain. However, natural aging can affect the appearance of the abdomen over time. The results showed that more than 98% of individuals were happy with the way that their results looked, and the side effects were minor and rare.
