Abdominoplasty in Dubai
Tummy Tuck
At ELEMENTAL Day Surgical Center in Dubai, we offer abdominoplasty – commonly known as a tummy tuck – as a tailored surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area while tightening the underlying muscles.
This procedure is particularly suitable for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy-related changes, or natural ageing that has resulted in a loose, sagging abdominal profile that does not respond to diet and exercise.
What Is Abdominoplasty?
Abdominoplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal region and tightens the underlying abdominal wall muscles. The procedure helps reshape and contour the abdomen, creating a firmer, flatter profile. Depending on the patient's anatomy and treatment goals, abdominoplasty may be performed as a full tummy tuck, a mini tummy tuck (addressing the area below the navel), or combined with liposuction for more comprehensive contouring.
Every surgical plan is personalised following a detailed clinical assessment and discussion of the patient's aesthetic objectives.
Who Is a Suitable Candidate?
You may be an ideal candidate for abdominoplasty if you:
- Have excess, loose, or sagging skin in the abdominal area
- Have weakened or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), often following pregnancy
- Have localised fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise
- Are in good general health with realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
A thorough consultation with Dr. Sirouse Ghouchkhani is essential to determine whether abdominoplasty is appropriate for your individual anatomy, medical history, and aesthetic goals.
The Procedure and Recovery
Abdominoplasty is performed under general anaesthesia and typically takes 2–4 hours, depending on the extent of the procedure. The surgical technique involves making a low, horizontal incision (usually from hip to hip), removing excess skin and fat, and tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. The belly button is repositioned to maintain natural proportions. The incisions are carefully placed to be concealed within the natural contours of the body.
After surgery, most patients are advised to rest and avoid strenuous activity for several weeks.
Recovery guidelines include:
- Wearing a compression garment to support healing and reduce swelling
- Avoiding heavy lifting and vigorous exercise for at least 6–8 weeks
- Returning to light daily activities within 1–2 weeks
- Gradually resuming normal exercise as advised by your surgeon
Results are visible immediately and continue to improve as swelling subsides. Final results typically become apparent within 3–6 months.
