Abdominal procedures: tummy tuck or muscle repair to tighten and contour the midsection.
Liposuction: targeted fat removal to refine the waist, hips, thighs, or other areas.

Recovery

Recovery varies based on the extent of surgery, but most patients can expect:

Temporary soreness, swelling, and bruising for the first few weeks.
Light activity within 1–2 weeks and gradual return to normal routines.
Strenuous exercise and heavy lifting are restricted for 4–6 weeks.

Compression garments or supportive bras should be worn to promote healing and contour stability.
