Hello, I am looking to get a mommy makeover. Well, first I want to lose 10 more pounds. I want as much lipo done to give me a snatched waistline (eliminate any lovehandles), bra fat and of course the tummy tuck. I am concern about the scar not being low enough or not being straight. My main question is about triple plication. Is this common practice? Does it make a difference? I have been seeing more and more about it and I wonder if it is worth it. Thank you!
Answer: Is Triple Plication common practice? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. More a marketing term than a specific procedure, all surgeons repair muscle laxity at the time of the tummy tuck to address areas of laxity, the most common of which is central. I would focus more on the results of the surgeon you visit then in how they achieve them. Hope this helps.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Triple plication is a technique used during a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to tighten and reinforce the abdominal muscles. It involves creating three layers of internal sutures to strengthen the abdominal wall.

Answer: Triple plication helps create an internal corset with improved waistline definition. Triple plication gives better waist definition during tummy tuck surgery because it addresses both the rectus muscles and the oblique muscles. While traditional tummy tucks only repair the separation between the rectus muscles down the middle of the abdomen, triple plication involves making additional muscle repairs on either side of the abdomen. By plicating the oblique muscles, triple plication can create a more defined and contoured waistline, resulting in a smaller waist and a more defined hourglass figure. This technique can provide a significant improvement in the overall contour of the abdomen, resulting in a more shapely and attractive figure.

Answer: Is Triple Plication common practice? Triple plication seems unnecessary. The most common practice is to do one or two layers. I believe most surgeons do a 2 layer plication.

Answer: Tummy tuck Your surgeon should be able to better explain what you can expect in terms of results. When selecting a surgeon, review before and after photos on the surgeons' websites and schedule a consultation with those that meet your criteria. Select the one with whom you feel most comfortable and confident. Specific techniques and the rationale behind them can be explained at your consultation. It's easy to say one technique is preferred over another, but the question you want answered is "why".
