How long does the surgery for TT and Muscle repair take?

I have performed a lot of abdominoplasties, but despite all that experience I still find it depends on the following 3 factors: 1. size of patient, 2. whether or not the muscles will be tightened, and 3. whether liposuction is to done. So the range of time is from 1-3 hours, with the most common amount of time to be told to the average patient being 2. Hope that helps.

Usually the case takes about 3 hours, depending on how complex the case is.  If previous surgery is done or if there is significant scarring it may take longer.  Also liposuction can extend this a bit. 

The surgical time to perform a Tummuy Tuck with muscle repair depends on 2 issues… the size of the patient and the surgeons experience. On average this is 2-3 hours. But can last as long as 4 hours on a person of larger size. Total OR time will be longer with anesthesia procedures included. Ask you PS how long they thinks it will take . Most should be within 30 min of their estimate.
