Tummy Tuck

(Abdominoplasty)

Life changes — pregnancy, weight loss, or simply time — can leave their mark on the abdomen. Skin may lose elasticity, the abdominal muscles can weaken or separate, and the natural contour can soften in ways that exercise alone cannot reverse. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is designed to tighten, smooth, and restore the abdominal contour, helping you feel stronger, lighter, and more confident in your own skin.

For those who have undergone significant weight loss, a tummy tuck can complete the transformation by removing excess skin and refining the body’s natural lines. For others — whether men or women — it enhances comfort, definition, and balance, helping clothes fit better and movement feel easier.

During the procedure, excess skin and fat are removed, and, where needed, the underlying abdominal muscles are repaired and tightened to restore core strength and support. This creates a smoother, firmer, and more refined abdominal profile with a natural contour that complements your body’s proportions — restoring not only form, but confidence and ease.

Every body tells its own story. During your consultation, I take time to understand your goals, lifestyle, and priorities, creating a personalised abdominoplasty plan that feels authentic to you — whether you’re seeking subtle refinement or a more transformative rejuvenation.

Final results

A tummy tuck is more than a surgical procedure — it is a restoration of confidence, comfort, and connection to your body. Whether part of a post-pregnancy restoration, following major weight loss, or as a rejuvenation later in life, the result should feel effortless and authentic: a body that moves with ease, fits beautifully, and reflects the strength and vitality you feel within.

My aim is to help every patient — at every stage of life — feel confident, supported, and completely at home in their body: elegant, strong, and entirely themselves.

  • 1. Who it is for?

    A tummy tuck may be right for you if you:
    • Have loose or sagging skin after pregnancy or weight loss
    • Wish to tighten weakened abdominal muscles
    • Want to improve comfort and confidence in clothing
    • Have experienced changes from ageing or hormonal shifts
    • Desire a smoother, firmer, and more defined abdominal contour

  • 2. What are the benefits?

    Restores a smoother, firmer waistline
    • Strengthens abdominal muscles and core support
    • Reduces stretch marks on the lower abdomen
    • Improves posture and comfort in clothing
    • Helps restore confidence and body balance

  • 3. What are the risks and considerations?

    All surgery carries some risks, which will be discussed in detail during consultation. These may include swelling, bruising, or temporary numbness, as well as delayed wound healing or scarring.

    In experienced hands, serious complications are rare, and great care is taken to ensure comfort, safety, and beautiful results that last.

Recovery expectations

You can expect tightness and mild swelling in the first two weeks, which gradually improves with rest and gentle movement. Most patients return to light activity within two to three weeks, with full recovery taking place over several months. A compression garment is worn to support healing and refine contour. Final results are typically visible after three to six months, as the abdomen settles into its natural, graceful shape.
