Plastic surgery of the abdomen - abdominoplasty

Do you want to have a firm and flat belly? Try a plastic surgery.

Why abdominoplasty?

The abdominal wall mostly loosens after pregnancy, giving birth or major weight reduction. In cases of abdominal wall loosening, even hundreds of hours in the gym won't help. The solution is a plastic surgery of the abdomen or abdominoplasty.

It is an extensive surgical operation making the abdomen flatter by removing excessive fat and skin and tightening abdominal wall muscles. Abdominoplasty can significantly improve the appearance of sagging or protruding abdomen.

In case of a considerable layer of subcutaneous fat, when large fat pads have also formed on hips, it is suitable to supplement the abdominoplasty with liposuction of these localities, achieving really excellent overall effect.

How does the procedure work?

Abdominoplasty consists in the tightening of spread out abdominal muscles. Principle of the operation lies in the removal of excessive skin and subcutaneous fat and fixation of the abdominal wall muscles. The cut is lead in the lower abdomen so that the resulting scar is hidden under underwear, if possible. The operation usually takes three to four hours and is performed under general anaesthesia.

What happens after the operation?

Two- to three-day hospitalization is necessary after the operation. Stitches are removed on the twelfth to fourteenth day after the intervention. Wearing an abdominal belt is recommended for up to eight weeks, with continuous wearing for the first four weeks. Rest regimen in home care is necessary after the intervention. Rest regimen is recommended for about 14 days after the operation; full physical activity can be considered after gradual rehabilitation after about six weeks. As a supplement to the post-operation care, we recommend lymphatic drainage massages, which are available from the Physio and Wellness Department at the GHC Clinic Prague.
