AbEX Excess Skin Removal FAQs

Is AbEX right for you? Learn more about our proprietary body sculpting procedure, offered exclusively at Sono Bello.

What is ABEX?

AbEX is a full abdominal sculpting procedure offered exclusively at Sono Bello. For many patients interested in removing stubborn belly fat around the abdomen, an added step is often needed where the remaining loose and sagging skin needs to be removed to achieve an individual's desired body shape and outcomes. The AbEX procedure, combined with micro-laser liposuction, allows for maximum fat removal and removal of excess skin around the abdomen.

Who is a good candidate for AbEX?

The AbEX procedure is designed to be flexible and accommodate a wide range of patients. Good candidates for AbEX are individuals looking to remove abdominal fat and may require skin removal, anyone who has recently lost a significant amount of abdominal fat, moms experiencing post-pregnancy changes in pockets of skin, and patients with a BMI between 18 and 42. Some patients may not be a good candidate for AbEX, which we can help determine during a consultation.

Is AbEX different from a tummy tuck?

AbEX™ excess skin removal, coupled with micro-laser liposuction, is a more comprehensive approach to fat removal than a traditional Tummy Tuck. Compared to a traditional tummy tuck or abdominoplasty, Sono Bello’s AbEX technique is characterized by a smaller incision, the inclusion of liposuction, and the use of local anesthesia. The AbEX procedure provides an attractive alternative to a tummy tuck for patients seeking body sculpting and abdominal enhancement.

How long does it take to recover from AbEX?

AbEX is known for a faster recovery time than other weight loss procedures. Our patients are typically back to normal activities in 5-10 days and back to working out in 3-4 weeks. Alternatively, Tummy Tuck patients typically require 3-4 weeks to resume normal activities with a prolonged period before strenuous working out can be done.
