Understanding the Procedure

What Is
Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, medically known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles.

This procedure is especially beneficial for individuals who have loose skin after significant weight loss or pregnancy, helping restore a flatter, firmer abdominal profile.

This procedure primarily addresses:

  • Loose or sagging abdominal skin
  • Stubborn fat in the midsection
  • Weakened or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti)
  • Stretch marks (especially below the navel)
  • Loss of abdominal tone after pregnancy or weight loss

Modern tummy tuck techniques focus on restoring core strength and creating natural-looking contours—not just removing skin—resulting in long-lasting, balanced outcomes.

Who Is This Procedure For?
A tummy tuck is ideal for individuals in good health who want to improve abdominal shape and firmness. Candidates should have stable weight, realistic expectations, and be non-smokers or willing to stop before surgery.

Risks &
Considerations

At Aris, we believe informed patients make the best decisions. All surgical procedures carry some level of risk, and tummy tuck surgery is no exception. During your consultation, Dr. Naveen Ahuja will explain these in detail and recommend surgery only when the benefits clearly outweigh the risks for your specific goals.
At Aris, we prioritize safety, precision, and personalized care. Every patient undergoes a thorough evaluation to ensure the procedure is appropriate and aligned with their expectations.

Swelling & Discomfort

Common in the first 2–3 weeks. Most symptoms gradually improve with proper care and rest.

Infection

Rare but possible. Prevented with sterile techniques and managed effectively if detected early.

Scarring

A low horizontal scar is expected but is placed discreetly along the bikini line and fades over time.

Anaesthesia Risks

General anesthesia carries standard risks, which are carefully monitored by the medical team.

Fluid Accumulation (Seroma)

Fluid buildup may occur temporarily and can be managed during recovery if needed.

Delayed Healing or Asymmetry

Healing varies by individual. Minor irregularities may occur and typically improve over time.
