Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is an effective body contouring surgery, particularly for cases of excessive weight loss (over 20 kg), multiple pregnancies, or age-related abdominal sagging. As part of the safety protocols, patients must fast for 8 hours before the surgery, stop taking blood thinners 2 weeks prior, and begin antibiotic treatment 12 hours before the procedure.

Under general anaesthesia, the 2-4 hour procedure involves a 15-25 cm incision along the bikini line. The separated abdominal muscles are reinforced with special stitches, and the navel is reshaped for a natural appearance. The procedure is carried out in accordance with the latest surgical safety standards.

Ideal candidates are those with a BMI under 30, non-smokers, and in good general health. The recovery process involves a 1-2 day hospital stay, followed by a 6-week period. During this time, the use of a special corset and gradual increase in activity are important. An 8-12 cm reduction in waist circumference is seen in 92% of patients. Regular exercise and weight control are essential for long-term success.
