A Tummy Tuck, or Abdominoplasty, is a plastic surgery procedure designed to flatten the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat. During this surgery, the surgeon will also tighten the abdominal muscles to enhance their aesthetics and symmetry.

Excessive stretching of the abdominal skin can occur due to factors such as pregnancy or obesity, resulting in a loss of skin elasticity. In cases where the skin fails to naturally recoil and re-drape, a tummy tightening surgery known as Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty is required.

An ideal candidate for a tummy tuck is:

• A healthy individual with an active lifestyle, stable weight, and abdominal laxity.
• Women who have undergone multiple pregnancies.
• An individual who has recently experienced significant weight loss resulting in excess sagging abdominal skin.
• A non-smoker.

Before the surgery, the surgeon will ask you to provide your latest blood and urine reports. Please remember to bring loose-fitting clothes to wear after the surgery. You will be administered general anesthesia and rendered unconscious during the procedure.

The recovery time for a tummy tuck is anywhere between two to six weeks. It is advisable to avoid physical activity during your recovery period. Your doctor will give you painkillers and other medication to make you feel comfortable after the procedure. Take all your medicines on time and follow all the instructions given to you. Do not skip any follow-up appointments, and do not put yourself under physical stress. To maintain the results of the tummy tuck, a healthy diet is pertinent.
