About the Operation

Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is a surgical procedure that completely removes the stretched and sagging abdominal skin caused by significant weight loss or multiple caesarean sections, while also tightening the separated and lax core muscles underneath (diastasis recti repair), recreating an 'internal corset' effect for a dramatically firmer midsection.

Application Details

  • 1A long horizontal incision just above the caesarean scar line is placed to remain concealed beneath a bikini.
  • 2The navel is repositioned and reconstructed at its new natural anatomical level (umbilicoplasty).
  • 3In patients with significant fat deposits, lipo-abdominoplasty (Vaser liposuction combined with the tuck) is used to achieve a perfect hourglass waist.

Who Is It Suitable For?

  • Mothers with a loose, herniated abdominal wall due to weakened skin and abdominal muscles
  • Individuals who complain of severely deflated, sheet-like abdominal skin following sleeve gastrectomy or intense exercise
  • Patients experiencing diastasis recti (midline separation of muscles) combined with skin laxity
