Tummy Tuck Procedure

What is a Tummy Tuck?

A Tummy Tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area. It also tightens weakened or separated muscles, creating a smoother, more toned appearance. This procedure is ideal for individuals looking to address changes caused by pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging.

Who is a Good Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?

You may be a good candidate for a Tummy Tuck if:

  • You have loose or sagging skin in the abdominal area.
  • Excess fat deposits persist despite diet and exercise.
  • Abdominal muscles have weakened or separated.
  • You are in good general health and have realistic expectations.

At Cybele Clinic, we offer personalized consultations to determine if this procedure aligns with your goals.

Benefits of Tummy Tuck Surgery

  • Enhanced Appearance: Achieve a flatter, more toned abdomen.
  • Improved Confidence: Feel more comfortable in your clothing and body.
  • Posture Support: Strengthened abdominal muscles can improve posture.
  • Functional Benefits: Reduces irritation or discomfort caused by excess skin.

Our team at Cybele Clinic focuses on delivering natural-looking results tailored to your unique needs.

Tummy Tuck Procedure Process

The Tummy Tuck procedure typically involves:

  1. Consultation: Discuss your goals and medical history with our specialists.
  2. Anesthesia: Administered to ensure comfort during surgery.
  3. Incision Placement: A horizontal incision is made between the pubic hairline and belly button.
  4. Muscle Repair and Skin Removal: Weakened muscles are tightened, and excess skin and fat are removed.
  5. Closure: Incisions are carefully closed to minimize visible scarring.

The surgery generally takes 2-4 hours, depending on the complexity of the case.

Types of Tummy Tuck Procedures

  • Full Tummy Tuck: Addresses the entire abdominal area, including muscle tightening.
  • Mini Tummy Tuck: Focuses on the lower abdomen for individuals with minimal excess skin.
  • Extended Tummy Tuck: Removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and flanks.

At Cybele Clinic, we guide you in selecting the procedure that best suits your goals.
