Overview
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to create a flatter, firmer, and more contoured abdomen by removing excess skin and fat and tightening the abdominal muscles.

Is a Tummy Tuck Right for Me?
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to create a flatter, firmer, and more contoured abdomen by removing excess skin and fat and tightening the abdominal muscles. It is particularly popular among individuals who have undergone significant weight loss, experienced pregnancy, or are dealing with loose skin and weakened abdominal muscles due to aging.
About the Tummy Tuck Surgery
Performed under general anesthesia, the procedure begins with an incision, typically made along the lower abdomen from hip to hip, strategically placed to be hidden by most underwear or swimwear. The surgeon removes excess skin and fat, tightens the abdominal muscles if needed, and repositions the remaining skin for a smoother, firmer contour. In some cases, the belly button is reshaped or repositioned to achieve a natural-looking result.
Once the desired improvements are made, the incisions are closed with sutures, and compression garments are applied to support the healing process and minimize swelling. The procedure typically lasts 2–5 hours, depending on the complexity and type of tummy tuck performed.
