PANNICULECTOMY CORONA, CA | DR. STEVE T. VU, MD

UNDERSTANDING PANNICULECTOMY IN CORONA, CA

After significant weight loss, patients often experience excess skin
and fat in the lower abdominal area. Dr. Steve Vu specializes in
panniculectomy, a surgical procedure designed to remove this hanging
skin and help patients achieve a more defined physique.

WHAT IS A PANNICULECTOMY?

A panniculectomy is a surgical procedure targeting the pannus, the
apron of skin that hangs over the lower abdomen. This procedure
focuses specifically on removing excess fat and skin, providing
functional and aesthetic improvements.

KEY REASONS FOR PANNICULECTOMY

 	* Reduce skin chafing and irritation
	* Improve mobility and comfort
	* Address posture-related issues
	* Enhance clothing fit and body contour

PANNICULECTOMY VS. TUMMY TUCK

While both procedures address abdominal appearance, a panniculectomy
is more focused on removing excess skin. A tummy tuck is more
comprehensive, involving muscle tightening and more extensive body
contouring.

CANDIDACY FOR PANNICULECTOMY

Dr. Vu evaluates candidates based on several key criteria:

 	* Stable body weight
	* Good overall health
	* Non-smoker or willing to quit
	* Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

SURGICAL EXPECTATIONS

The procedure typically takes several hours and is performed under
general anesthesia. Patients can expect a recovery period with
temporary swelling and potential use of compression garments to
support healing.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Complete results may take several months to become visible as swelling
subsides. Patients should follow post-operative instructions carefully
to ensure optimal healing and outcomes.
