Whether you’ve experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or simply wish to enhance your abdominal contour, our expert surgeons use advanced techniques to deliver exceptional results. Say goodbye to excess skin and stubborn fat, and hello to a smoother, firmer belly with abdominoplasty in Dubai.

What is Abdominoplasty?

Abdominoplasty, commonly referred to as a tummy tuck, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area while tightening the underlying muscles. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have loose, sagging skin or weakened abdominal muscles due to aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or genetics.

At Ecla Clinic, our skilled surgeons customize each tummy tuck to suit the patient’s unique anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring natural-looking and long-lasting results.

Different Types of Abdominoplasties in Dubai

At Ecla Clinic, we offer various types of abdominoplasty procedures to meet diverse needs and preferences:

1. Full Abdominoplasty: Also known as a traditional tummy tuck, this comprehensive procedure involves making an incision from hip to hip and around the navel. It addresses the entire abdomen, removing excess skin and fat and tightening the abdominal muscles.
2. Mini Abdominoplasty: Ideal for patients with less extensive sagging, this procedure targets the lower abdomen. It involves a smaller incision below the navel and is less invasive than a full tummy tuck.
3. Extended Abdominoplasty: This procedure is suitable for individuals who require more extensive contouring. It addresses the abdomen, flanks, and lower back, providing a more comprehensive improvement in body contour.
4. Circumferential Abdominoplasty: Also known as a belt lipectomy, this procedure is ideal for patients who have undergone significant weight loss. It involves a circumferential incision around the body, removing excess skin and fat from the abdomen, hips, and back.

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck Surgery

Ideal candidates for a tummy tuck at Ecla Clinic include individuals who:

• Are in good overall health and do not have any medical conditions that could impair healing.
• Have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure.
• Are non-smokers or are willing to quit smoking before and after the surgery.
• Experience loose, sagging skin or weakened abdominal muscles that do not respond to diet and exercise.
• Are not planning significant weight loss or future pregnancies, as these can affect the results of the surgery.

Benefits of Abdominoplasty

Choosing abdominoplasty at Ecla Clinic offers numerous benefits:

1. Enhanced Appearance: Achieves a flatter, firmer, and more toned abdominal contour.
2. Improved Confidence: Many patients experience a significant boost in self-esteem and body image.
3. Better Posture: Tightening the abdominal muscles can improve posture and reduce back pain.
4. Clothing Fit: Clothes may fit better and look more flattering after the procedure.
5. Lasting Results: With a stable weight and healthy lifestyle, the results of abdominoplasty can be long-lasting.

Side Effects of Abdominoplasty

While a tummy tuck surgery is generally safe, it does carry some potential side effects, including:

1. Swelling and Bruising: Common during the initial recovery period and typically subsides within a few weeks.
2. Pain and Discomfort: Manageable with prescribed pain medication.
3. Scarring: Incisions will leave scars, which may fade over time but will remain to some extent.
4. Numbness: Temporary numbness or changes in skin sensation around the treated area, which usually resolves over time.
5. Infection: As with any surgery, there is a risk of infection, which can be minimized with proper post-operative care.
6. Seroma: Accumulation of fluid under the skin, which may require drainage.

How is Abdominoplasty in Dubai Performed?

The abdominoplasty procedure at Ecla Clinic involves several key steps:

• Consultation: Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where our surgeons assess your abdominal area, discuss your goals, and explain the procedure.
• Anesthesia: Abdominoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the surgery.
• Incisions: Depending on the type of tummy tuck, incisions are made in discreet locations to minimize visible scarring.
• Tissue Removal and Muscle Repair: Excess skin and fat are removed, and the abdominal muscles are tightened to create a firmer, flatter abdomen.
• Closure: Incisions are carefully closed with sutures, and dressings are applied to support the new abdominal contours.

Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery from a tummy tuck surgery at Ecla Clinic involves several stages:

• Immediate Post-Procedure: You will need to rest and avoid strenuous activities. Swelling and discomfort are common, but these can be managed with medication.
• First Few Weeks: Swelling and bruising will gradually subside. It is important to follow your surgeon’s care instructions, including wearing compression garments to support healing.
• Long-Term Care: Most patients return to work and light activities within 2-4 weeks. Full recovery and final results can take several months as the body continues to heal and adjust.
