before surgery
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is surgical tightening of the front abdominal wall that removes excess stretched skin and fat. It is not a weight-loss method and does not replace diet and exercise. The goal is a flat abdominal contour: removing the overhanging skin-and-fat apron, repairing separated rectus muscles and, if needed, creating a new navel.
It is chosen if excess skin and diastasis (separation of the rectus abdominis muscles) stay after childbirth, a C-section or major weight loss. Diet and exercise cannot help: stretched skin doesn't shrink and separated muscles won't rejoin without surgery. Pregnancy is best planned 12 months or more later, and surgery is not done during breastfeeding.

Classic tummy tuck
The classic operation begins with a horizontal incision above the pubic area, its length depending on the amount of excess tissue. The scar line is planned so that underwear and swimwear hide it. The surgeon repairs separated rectus muscles, removes excess skin and fat, repositions the navel and places drains; it takes 2–4 hours under general anaesthesia.
Suits pronounced excess skin, rectus diastasis and a C-section scar.

Mini tummy tuck with diastasis repair
In a mini tummy tuck the scope is narrower: the surgeon corrects just the lower abdomen, the incision is shorter and the navel is not repositioned. It is used for small excess skin when the main concern is diastasis or overhang above a C-section scar, and recovery is shorter. The technique is chosen at an in-person consultation, once the abdominal muscles and skin are assessed.
Less surgical trauma and a faster recovery if the excess skin is minor.

Surgeon consultation
We listen to your wishes: the surgeon examines you, assesses the fat deposits and rules out contraindications. City Medical Centre also orders hormone screening that helps predict the long-term result.

Pre-surgery check-up
Blood tests (full blood count, coagulation panel, biochemistry, infections — HIV, hepatitis, syphilis), an ECG, chest X-ray and a GP consultation if needed.
All tests can be done at the clinic with no waiting.

Preparation
Stop blood-clotting medicines 2 weeks before; stop alcohol and smoking a week before for faster healing; eat the last meal 8 hours before.

Surgery day
The surgeon meets you and marks the skin; compression garments are fitted. The operation is under general anaesthesia and takes 2–4 hours.

Waking up and monitoring
Medical supervision in hospital continues for 1–3 days after the surgery.

Recovery
1.5–2 months in a compression binder. Most of the swelling is gone within 30 days; you can return to office work after 2–3 weeks. The final result is assessed at 3 months.

The patient stays in hospital under medical supervision for 1–3 days right after surgery. Usually drains are removed after two days and stitches after 7 days. Wearing a compression binder for 1.5–2 months supports the abdominal wall and gives a smooth contour. Most swelling is gone within 30 days, with office work resuming after 2–3 weeks. For 2–3 months avoid sports, sauna and heavy lifting; at first, sleeping on your back with knees bent is recommended. By 12 months the scar is fully mature, faded and barely noticeable.

Hormonal approach — before surgery an endocrinologist rules out hormonal causes of obesity, so the long-term result is more reliable

Combined procedures
In a single operation a tummy tuck can include liposuction of the flanks and waist or diastasis repair, so there is one anaesthesia and one recovery period

Support until the result
During recovery the surgeon keeps in touch, and the price stated in the contract is fixed, with no hidden extra charges

Tummy tuck with liposuction or diastasis repair — can they be combined?
Yes, it is allowed and happens very often. A tummy tuck is combined with liposuction of the flanks and waist and, after childbirth, with repair of rectus diastasis. With this combination recovery is shorter; the surgeon explains the extent of the procedure at an in-person consultation.
Is a tummy tuck a way to lose weight?
No, it will not help with weight loss. The goal is another: to remove excess stretched skin and the fat apron and restore the muscle wall of the abdomen. Surgery is done when weight is stable; if it is still changing, see a dietitian or endocrinologist first.
Will there be a scar after surgery?
Yes, expect a scar — the unavoidable price of removing excess skin. The classic tummy tuck incision runs across the lower abdomen from hip to hip, sitting below the underwear or swimsuit line; the mini tummy tuck incision is much shorter. Gradually the scar fades and becomes thin.
Will the surgery remove stretch marks and sagging skin?
Sagging skin and the fat apron are precisely what the surgery removes — entirely, together with stretch marks below the navel. The surgeon pulls the skin of the upper abdomen down, and the tummy ends up smooth with no extra lift.
Is the surgery painful?
No, the procedure is painless: the tummy tuck is done under general anaesthesia, so the patient feels nothing. The first days bring tightness and soreness, eased with doctor-prescribed painkillers; the discomfort drops noticeably by the end of the first week.
What should you avoid after a tummy tuck?
After a tummy tuck, the restrictions are identical for everyone. During the first 2–3 weeks there should be no physical exertion, heavy lifting or sudden movements. Sauna, steam bath, pool, tanning beds, alcohol and smoking are off-limits for a month or more. Sport resumes gradually and only with the surgeon's approval. You wear compression garments for another 4–8 weeks.
From what age can you have a tummy tuck, and is there an upper age?
The minimum age is 18, and only without contraindications. There is no upper limit at all: at our clinic each case is considered individually, after an examination and health assessment.
How does a mini tummy tuck differ from a classic one?
It is a question of scope. With a small excess of skin below the navel, a mini tummy tuck is enough: the incision is shorter, the navel is not moved and recovery is quicker. The classic operation removes the skin-and-fat apron across the entire abdomen, moves the navel and allows diastasis repair along the full length of the muscles.
How long does recovery take?
Think of recovery in three milestones: office work is possible after 2–3 weeks, swelling and tightness go by 1.5–2 months, and the final result and scar are evaluated at 6–12 months after the tissues have fully adapted.
Will the result last with weight gain and after pregnancy?
Removed skin will not grow back — this part of the result is permanent. Only a significant weight gain stretches the abdomen again; keep your weight stable. Pregnancy remains possible after a tummy tuck, but since it stretches the repaired muscles, surgery is planned once the family is complete.
Do you need special preparation for surgery?
Yes, preparation is required. 7–10 days before a tummy tuck, smoking, alcohol and medicines that affect blood clotting must stop. You also need a pre-surgery check-up with blood tests, ECG, leg vein ultrasound and GP and anaesthetist consultations — completed in advance, not the day before.
When will the result be visible?
For everyone the answer is the same. The first changes appear 2 weeks after surgery as the main swelling subsides, followed by two checkpoints: the interim result at 1.5–2 months and the final contours at 3–6 months.
Do you need to stay in hospital, and for how long?
Yes, a hospital stay is part of it: after a classic tummy tuck, 1–2 days under medical supervision, and after a mini tummy tuck usually just one day. Recovery continues at home while the surgeon monitors it at scheduled check-ups.
What tests are needed before surgery?
Before a tummy tuck, the list is identical for all: blood and urine tests, coagulation panel, biochemistry, infection tests, ECG, chest X-ray, ultrasound of the leg veins and a GP's report. The exact list comes from the surgeon at the consultation, and tests usually stay valid for 10–14 days.
Is diastasis always repaired during a tummy tuck?
No, it is not needed by everyone: a repair is done only when the rectus abdominis muscles are really separated. The surgeon notices diastasis at the examination, with ultrasound used to confirm it in case of doubt. Separated muscles are brought together in the same surgery, no separate procedure required.
Can you plan a pregnancy after a tummy tuck?
Pregnancy following a tummy tuck isn't forbidden; what matters is the order: childbirth first, then surgery. Otherwise the skin and muscles stretch again and some of the result is lost. Surgeons offer one piece of advice — if you plan a child, wait at least a year after the procedure.
Do you have to wear compression garments, and for how long?
Yes, it is required — without the garment recovery is worse: it supports the tissues and reduces swelling. For the first 3–4 weeks it is worn around the clock, then for about another month during the day. The operating surgeon will name the exact period.
Every tummy tuck leaves a scar; it is the unavoidable price of removing excess skin. In a classic procedure it runs across the lower abdomen from hip to hip, below the underwear or swimsuit line, and in a mini procedure it is much shorter. By 12 months the scar is mature, thin and barely noticeable. People in Ghaziabad can discuss at the consultation how the incision line will be planned.
It all begins with a surgeon consultation: the doctor listens to your wishes, examines the abdomen and rules out contraindications, and a hormone screening is ordered to help predict the long-term result. Patients from Ghaziabad then complete a check-up: blood tests including a coagulation panel, biochemistry and infections, ECG and chest X-ray, all available at the clinic with no waiting.
Combining procedures can make the plan more efficient: a tummy tuck with flank and waist liposuction or diastasis repair is done under one anaesthesia with one recovery period. The price for such a combination, as for a standalone operation, is set after a free consultation and fixed in the contract. People in Ghaziabad can book that consultation through the form or any messenger.
