Risks and Side Effects

While a Fleur de Lis Abdominoplasty with Dr. Mohammed Elahi can deliver dramatic improvements in body contour, patients should be aware of potential risks and consequences, including significant scarring, swelling, bruising, pain, and the risk of infection. Additionally, there are potential complications such as seroma, hematoma, poor wound healing, and asymmetry, although these are minimized under the care of an experienced surgeon like Dr. Elahi. Adhering to post-operative care instructions is crucial for reducing these risks.

Duration of Results

The results of a Fleur de Lis Abdominoplasty are typically long-lasting, especially with a healthy lifestyle and stable weight; however, natural aging and major weight fluctuations can affect the durability of the results.

Recovery After Fleur de Lis Abdominoplasty

The recovery time for a Fleur de Lis Abdominoplasty generally follows this timeline:

1. Initial Days Post-Surgery:
  • Patients can expect significant swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medications. It's crucial to rest, avoid strenuous activities, and follow Dr. Elahi's post-operative care instructions closely. Drains may be placed to prevent fluid accumulation and will be removed during a follow-up visit.
1-2 Weeks:
  • Swelling and bruising will start to subside. Most patients will need to take at least one to two weeks off work to focus on recovery. During this period, patients should continue to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting. Light walking is encouraged to promote circulation and reduce the risk of blood clots.
2-4 Weeks:
  • Swelling and bruising continue to decrease. Patients may feel more comfortable and can gradually resume normal daily activities, but should still avoid intense physical activity and heavy lifting. It is important to wear compression garments as directed to support the healing process.
4-6 Weeks:
  • Most of the swelling and bruising should have resolved, and patients can typically return to more vigorous activities, including light exercise. However, they should still be cautious and gradually increase their activity level.
6-8 Weeks and Beyond:
  • Full recovery can take several months, but by six to eight weeks, patients can usually return to their regular exercise routine and more demanding physical activities. Final results will continue to improve as any remaining swelling subsides, and the incision lines will gradually fade over time.

Following Dr. Elahi's specific post-operative care instructions, attending all follow-up appointments, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle are crucial for a smooth recovery and optimal results. Regular follow-up appointments will help monitor the healing process and address any concerns.
