A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin from the waist and tightens the fascia and muscles of the abdominal wall. Abdominoplasty is performed to improve the shape and contour of the abdomen, helping create a smoother and firmer appearance. It is suitable for candidates with significant weight loss, post- pregnancy abdominal changes, or reduced skin elasticity.

Enfield Royal Clinic Dubai offers a customized surgery treatment plan based on the patient’s abdominal anatomy, the amount and distribution of excess skin and fat, skin elasticity, and the presence of abdominal muscle separation (diastasis recti). Dr. Sirouse Ghouchkhani assesses each patient’s condition and aesthetic goals to determine the most appropriate surgical approach.

How Much Does a Tummy Tuck Cost in Dubai

Mini Tummy Tuck	18,000 AED

What Are the Types of Tummy Tucks

There are different types of tummy tuck, varying amounts and location of excess skin and fat, as well as specific abdominal concerns. The main types of tummy tuck are listed below:

Full Tummy Tuck.

Full tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens separated or lax abdominal muscles. Full tummy tuck is the most common type of abdominoplasty, and it targets both the upper and lower abdomen area. The procedure typically involves a horizontal incision between the hip bones. Most patients can resume light daily activities within a few weeks, while full recovery may take around 3+ months.

Mini Tummy Tuck

Mini tummy tuck primarily targets excess or lax skin in the lower abdomen, below the belly button, through a smaller incision than a full tummy tuck. Recovery varies depending on individual healing and overall health. Most patients can return to work after 1 to 2 weeks and continue more strenuous activities after approximately 5 to 6 weeks, depending on their surgeon’s advice.

Extended Tummy Tuck

Extended tummy tuck targets the excess and sagging skin on the stomach. It uses a longer incision that stretches around the abdomen, hips, and flanks. The surgeon can also reposition your belly button during an extended tummy tuck. The downtime for an extended tummy tuck is 4- 6 weeks, and strenuous activities should generally be avoided until cleared by the surgeon.

Fleur-de-Lis Tummy Tuck

Fleur-de-Lis tummy tuck targets the excess skin after major weight loss. This creates an incision including vertical and horizontal components across the tummy, and a large amount of excess and saggy skin is removed. Recovery time is about 4-6 weeks, and for strenuous activities, 6-8 weeks are required.

Endoscopic Tummy Tuck

An endoscopic tummy tuck involves a small incision and an endoscope to tighten the abdominal muscles. It is suitable for people with limited excess skin and muscle separation. The downtime of an endoscopic tummy tuck depends on the individual’s healing and overall health. A minimum of 3-4 weeks is required initially, while strenuous activities should be avoided until the surgeon gives clearance.

High Lateral Tension Tummy Tuck

High lateral tension tummy tuck places greater tension on the outer portions of the abdomen rather than concentrating it in the centre. The incision is designed to target the excess skin on the lateral sides of the abdomen, giving a contoured look. Patients require 4-6 weeks of downtime before resuming normal daily activities.

Drainless Tummy Tuck

Drainless tummy tuck uses progressive tension sutures to secure abdominal tissues and reduce the space where fluid can collect. This reduces the need for traditional surgical drains during the surgery. The exact downtime depends on the extent of surgery and individual healing.

How Do I Prepare for Tummy Tuck Surgery

Preparing for tummy tuck surgery involves several steps such as:

Schedule a consultation and discuss your medical history, allergies, and goals.

Get blood tests, such as CBC, blood clotting, blood glucose, or medical assessments recommended by your surgeon.

Stop smoking and using nicotine-containing products, such as cigarettes, vapes, and nicotine pouches, as they can delay healing.

Maintain a stable weight and have a balanced nutritious diet before surgery.

Arrange for someone to accompany you home after the surgery.

Follow your surgeon’s instructions regarding eating, drinking, and fasting before surgery.

Tummy Tuck Surgery FAQ's

What is tummy tuck surgery?

Tummy tuck surgery is the removal of excessive skin and fat through an incision. It also repairs the abdominal wall when muscle laxity or separation is present. It is usually done after major weight loss or post-pregnancy.

Are tummy tuck results permanent?

Yes, tummy tuck results are considered permanent because the physical skin and fat tissues are removed surgically. These tissues do not grow back, and muscles remain intact.

Which type of tummy tuck is right for me?

Choosing the right tummy tuck for oneself depends on the amount of excess skin and the need for muscle repair. A mini tummy tuck treats the excess skin laxity in the lower abdomen, while a full tummy tuck targets the upper and lower abdomen. Consult a certified surgeon for your tailored treatment plan.

What are the risks and complications of a tummy tuck?

The risks and complications of a tummy tuck are as follows:

Bleeding
Infections
Blood clot
Numbness
Contour irregularity
Scaring

Is tummy tuck surgery painful?

Yes, tummy tuck surgery involves a significant recovery process with discomfort after the surgery. Tummy tuck is performed under anesthesia, preventing pain perception during the procedure. But after the anesthesia wears off, it is normal to feel pain, swelling, tightness, and discomfort in the initial days.

Can I get pregnant after a tummy tuck?

Yes, you can get pregnant after a tummy tuck. The surgeon only removes the excess skin, leaving the uterus and reproductive organs unharmed during the surgery. Pregnancy after surgery should be discussed with the surgeon.

Will a tummy tuck leave visible scars?

Yes, a tummy tuck leaves a visible scar, depending on the type of incision. But skilled surgeons place the incision low in the abdomen area so that a swimsuit can easily cover it.

Can stretch marks be removed with a tummy tuck?

Yes, stretch marks located near the pubic line and belly button can be removed with a tummy tuck. The skin from this area is removed, which eliminates the stretch marks.

What are the benefits of a tummy tuck?

The benefits of the tummy tuck are the removal of loose and saggy skin, stubborn fat, and muscle repair. It provides a slimmer look and a contoured abdomen.

How long do I need to take off work after an abdominoplasty?

You need to take 2 to 3 weeks off work if you do a desk job and 4 to 8 weeks off if your job involves heavy physical labor. Before any strenuous work, get clearance from the surgeon.

What causes loose skin and weak abdominal muscles?

Loose skin and weak abdominal muscles are caused when the muscles stretch beyond their ability to stretch. It is mainly caused by pregnancy, sudden weight loss, aging, and inadequate exercise.

What is lipoabdominoplasty?

Lipoabdominoplasty is a cosmetic surgery that includes liposuction with tummy tuck surgery. It removes loose skin, strengthens the core, and repairs abdominal muscle.

What is the difference between a tummy tuck and liposuction?

The key difference between a tummy tuck and liposuction is what each procedure addresses. Liposuction removes stubborn fat through small tubes, best for people with elastic skin. Tummy tuck is a major surgery that removes excessive skin with some quantity of fat through incisions, best for post pregnancy and post-weight loss

What is the difference between a mini and full tummy tuck?

The difference between a mini and full tummy tuck is:

Mini tummy tuck: Only targets the fat and loose skin in the lower abdomen area with a small incision.
Full tummy tuck: Targets the whole abdomen from ribs to pubic line with a larger incision.

Can a tummy tuck repair an umbilical hernia or diastasis recti?

Yes, a tummy tuck repairs diastasis recti and a small to moderate umbilical hernia at the same time. During the procedure, the surgeon repairs separated muscles, repairing diastasis recti, and closes the opening where the hernia protrudes, repairing the umbilical hernia.

When can I exercise again after a tummy tuck?

Light walking is encouraged 2 -3 days after tummy tuck surgery. You can start light exercise after 3–6 weeks and heavy cardio after 8-12 weeks after a tummy tuck surgery. Always get clearance from your doctor before you begin.

Will my insurance cover tummy tuck surgery in Dubai?

No, tummy tuck surgery is not covered under insurance in Dubai because it comes under elective cosmetic surgery. Insurance companies only consider it when there’s a medical condition such as rashes, skin infection, or hernia.
