Six Pack Surgery is a simple surgical procedure but has certain risks and side effects associated with it. Some of the common side effects of the Six Pack procedure are:

  • Infection

  • Skin discoloration or severe bruising
  • Irregular contouring
  • Bumpy skin

Six Pack Surgery Recovery Timeline

The recovery time for the six-pack surgery is, much like the recovery time for other liposuction procedures, around two weeks. You should expect the full results of your procedure around 2-5 months after the surgery. 

You can resume your daily life activities within the first week of the procedure, although, you should not partake in strenuous physical activity. You should also make sure to avoid smoking and drinking during this period to reduce the risk of infections. 

Abs Surgery Success Rate

Six-pack surgery has a high success rate of 98%, especially in Turkey as it is performed by well-trained, highly-skilled, and board-certified plastic and cosmetic surgeons. 

Six Pack Surgery Alternative Treatments

The alternatives to a six-pack surgery are less invasive forms of liposuction such as:

  • Ultrasound-assisted liposuction
  • Power-assisted liposuction

A non-invasive alternative to the six-pack surgery is a combination of a healthy diet, exercise, and weight lifting to improve your health and enhance the appearance of the body simultaneously.
