Enhancing abdominal surgery: Exploring the 'Lock and Glue' technique

Lock and glue lipo-abdominoplasty, also known as the "lock and glue tummy tuck," represents an innovative technique in abdominal surgery. This approach merges internal locking stitches and tissue glue, eliminating the need for drains typically used to remove excess blood and fluid. By combining local anaesthetic blocks and twilight anaesthesia, this procedure can often be performed as a day case, aligning with current research advocating for more day case surgeries to encourage earlier mobilisation and reduce the risk of complications such as DVT, PE, and hospital-acquired infections. In her latest online article, Miss Kerstin Oestreich, a highly experienced plastic surgeon gives us her insight into this procedure. She has been extensively trained in this technique and frequently performs the procedure at the clinic.
