Contact SupplierWhat Is Tummy Tuck?
A Tummy Tuck, or abdominoplasty, can help improve the look of a bulging or slack belly by removing excess fat and skin. Usually, a Tummy Tuck also restores weakened or separated abdominal muscles to create a firmer and smoother abdominal profile. It is particularly useful where diet and exercise have failed to tone a slack tummy after pregnancy or significant weight loss, or due to genetic factors or aging.
While a Tummy Tuck is an ideal solution, it needs to be performed by an expert to ensure minimal scarring, a natural result and as quick a recovery as possible. We have decades of experience specializing in body contouring procedures, and performs tummy tucks regularly.
Who Needs Tummy Tuck?
Tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is indicated in women with multiple pregnancies or who have lost weight massively. Multiple pregnancies or caesarean surgery causes excess skin with loss of elasticity. There is tearing of dermis causing excessive stretch marks. There is also separation of rectus muscle and bulging. These leads to a combination of bulging tummy with excess skin flabs.
In patients with massive weight loss of more than 25-30 kg particularly after bariatric surgeries such as sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bands or bypass, there is excess skin flabs and loose skin in the tummy. Tummy tuck is indicated in such patients where excess skin is removed along with any excess or residual fatty tissue.
Men may also need tummy tuck if they have been obese and have lost significant weight.
Other indications of tummy tuck is abdominal hernia in women due to weak or separated abdominal wall muscles.
