Objective:

To assess the clinical efficacy of combining abdominoplasty with liposuction in postpartum women with normal BMI, highlighting its significance in aesthetic surgery.

Key Findings:
  • Waist circumference reduced from 90.9 cm to 80.4 cm postoperatively (p < 0.05).
  • Complications included seroma (3 cases), umbilical wound dehiscence (3 cases), and abdominal wound dehiscence (4 cases), all managed successfully.
  • Patient satisfaction significantly improved postoperatively (p < 0.01).
Interpretation:

Combined abdominoplasty and circumferential liposuction are safe and effective for abdominal contouring, achieving significant waistline refinement and high patient satisfaction, consistent with previous studies.

Limitations:
  • Retrospective design may introduce bias, potentially affecting the generalizability of the results.
  • Limited to a specific demographic (postpartum Asian women with normal BMI), which may not reflect outcomes in other populations.
Conclusion:

The integrated approach effectively addresses both aesthetic and functional concerns with an acceptable complication profile, underscoring its relevance in contemporary aesthetic surgery.
