Background/Objectives: Abdominoplasties are prevalent surgical procedures for improving lower abdominal contours, necessitating effective pain management. Insufficient management can increase opioid usage, dependency risks, and adverse effects. This review investigates various strategies in abdominoplasty pain management, aiming to reduce opioid dependence and improve patient care. Methods: A comprehensive systematic literature search (MEDLINE, Cochrane, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE) was conducted, spanning from their inception to January 2024, using keywords such as 'abdominoplasty' and 'postoperative pain management'. Included studies focused on nonopioid interventions in adults, encompassing various study designs. Non-English publications and those not meeting outcome criteria were excluded. Bias in studies was assessed using specific tools for randomized and non-randomized trials. Results: Thirty-five studies, published between 2005 and 2024, were included, involving 3636 patients with an average age of 41.8. Key findings highlighted the effectiveness of transversus abdominis plane blocks in reducing opioid use and pain. Pain pump catheters also showed promise in improving pain management and reducing opioid dependency. Local anesthetics demonstrated varying degrees of efficacy, while other alternatives like ketamine and NSAIDs successfully reduced postoperative pain and opioid requirements. The bias assessment of the RCTs revealed "low" and "some concerns" ratings, indicating a need for more detailed methodology reporting and management of missing data. The cohort studies generally attained "moderate" risks of bias, primarily due to confounding variables and outcome data reporting. Conclusions: Nonopioid analgesics show potential in postoperative pain management for abdominoplasties, but further research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and optimize patient care.
