Tummy Tuck / Abdominoplasty (Plastika břicha)

Abdominoplasty at MUDr. Kučerová's Brno practice removes excess abdominal skin and tightens the underlying muscles for a flatter, firmer midsection. The procedure is sized to the patient's anatomy: a mini approach addresses the area below the navel only, while medium and large abdominoplasty address the full abdominal wall. A standout feature of this practice is the optional TAP block — ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blockade of the abdominal region, included at no extra charge — which provides up to 20 hours of post-operative pain control without strong opioids, significantly reducing nausea and the risk of bleeding. The all-inclusive price covers the mandatory pre-operative examination, surgery, compression garment, and all follow-up care.

The abdominal wall undergoes profound changes during pregnancy and significant weight fluctuation: skin stretches beyond its elastic limit, the rectus abdominis muscles may separate (diastasis recti), and resistant fat deposits develop that diet and exercise cannot resolve. Abdominoplasty — tummy tuck — addresses all three components surgically: it removes the excess skin apron, tightens the abdominal fascia where muscle separation exists, and may incorporate liposuction of adjacent areas in the same session. At MUDr. Lucie Kučerová's Brno practice, the procedure is customized to the extent of skin laxity and patient goals. The mini abdominoplasty targets the sub-umbilical zone through a short horizontal incision; the umbilicus is not repositioned. It is available under local anesthesia (37,000 Kč) or general anesthesia (55,000 Kč). Medium and large abdominoplasty address the full abdominal wall from pubis to costal margin, repositioning the navel to a natural height and removing the entire skin and fat apron below; medium cases cost 69,200 Kč and large cases 80,200 Kč, with cases involving extreme skin excess carrying a 30% supplement. Diastasis recti repair — tightening of the rectus sheath with interrupted sutures — adds 8,000 Kč and is recommended whenever muscle separation exceeds two centimeters. Liposuction of the abdomen and flanks can be combined for 30,000 Kč additional. A defining feature of this practice is the pain management protocol. MUDr. Kučerová offers ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block — targeted peripheral nerve blockade of the abdominal wall — at no additional charge. This technique infiltrates local anesthetic in a precise anatomical plane, providing up to 20 hours of effective post-operative analgesia without opioids. The result is less nausea, faster ambulation, reduced bleeding risk, and a more comfortable first day of recovery. The clinic is expanding this protocol to breast and gynecomastia procedures. All pricing is all-inclusive: the pre-operative internal medical examination at SurGal Clinic, anesthesia and OR time, 1–2 nights' hospitalization with meals, the compression bandage and abdominal belt, all dressing changes, and the one-week follow-up are included. There are no hidden anesthesiologist or facility fees. Recovery involves wearing the compression belt continuously for six weeks, avoiding strenuous activity and sports for six to eight weeks, and attending the follow-up clinic at one week. Scar massage begins at day 14 and the final aesthetic result is best assessed at three months.
