Was approved for a Panniculectomy, deciding on if the abdominalplasty is something that I have to do along with it or how much it would hinder my results if I opted out of that?

Answer: Panniculectomy vs. abdominoplasty Panniculectomy is a conservative form of abdominoplasty where sagging skin pannus is directly removed with skin and fat content, without doing more agressive skin flap elevation and tightening to avoid complications like skin necrosis, fat necrosis, seroma, wound separation and similar. That procedure would create very nice improvement in your case providing that it is done by a board certified plasytic surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: Panniculectomy Dear chachierb, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
