Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)

Abdominoplasty at GISANT removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), restoring a flatter, firmer profile through a low transverse scar with a small scar around the navel. It is particularly effective after pregnancy or significant weight loss, where loose, overstretched skin and muscle separation do not respond to diet or exercise. The procedure takes about two to three hours under general anaesthesia with a two-night stay. Pricing is tiered small/large, with combined abdominoplasty-plus-liposuction options for more comprehensive contouring. An abdominal binder is provided, worn during recovery, with full activity at around six weeks.

Abdominoplasty — tummy tuck surgery — targets three problems that exercise and diet cannot resolve: excess, overstretched abdominal skin; persistent lower-abdominal fat; and diastasis recti, the separation of the paired rectus abdominis muscles that commonly follows pregnancy. By correcting all three together, the procedure restores a flat, firm abdominal profile and a tighter core. GISANT prices the procedure in tiers. Abdominoplasty alone is CZK 48,000 (small) or CZK 58,000 (large), reflecting the extent of skin and muscle correction. For patients who also want fat reduction of the flanks and surrounding areas, a combined abdominoplasty-with-liposuction is offered at CZK 68,000 (small) or CZK 78,000 (large), addressing both loose tissue and contour in one operation. The surgery takes roughly two to three hours under general anaesthesia with a two-night hospital stay; anaesthesia and the stay are billed separately per the price list. During surgery a low transverse incision is made across the lower abdomen, positioned to fall within underwear or a bikini line. The skin is lifted off the abdominal wall, the rectus muscles are plicated (sutured together) in the midline to narrow the waist and firm the core, excess skin and fat are removed, and the navel is repositioned through a new opening in the tightened skin — leaving a small scar around the navel in addition to the low transverse scar. An abdominal binder is provided and worn during recovery to support the abdominal wall as it heals. Rest is advised for the first seven to ten days, stitches are removed at ten to fourteen days, and full activity resumes at around six weeks. Swelling settles over the following weeks and the final result emerges over the months that follow, with scars continuing to fade. Ideal candidates are adults at or near their target weight with loose abdominal skin, persistent lower-abdominal fat, or muscle separation, typically after pregnancy or major weight loss. Patients planning future pregnancies are usually advised to postpone, as pregnancy stretches the repaired wall. Blood-thinning medication is discontinued before surgery and a pre-operative examination is required for general anaesthesia.
