How is a Tummy Tuck Performed?
The surgery typically follows these steps:
Consultation & Planning: Surgeons evaluate abdominal structure and design a customized plan.
Anesthesia: General anesthesia is used for safety and comfort.
Incisions: Usually made along the lower abdomen, discreetly placed under clothing lines.
Muscle Repair & Skin Removal: Abdominal muscles are tightened, and excess skin is removed.
Fat Reduction: Liposuction may be combined for enhanced results.
Closing & Recovery: Incisions are closed with techniques that minimize visible scarring.
The procedure usually takes 2–4 hours, depending on the case.
