Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Surgical removal of excess abdominal skin and fat with optional repair of separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), performed under general anaesthesia at My Best Care's Praha 9 surgical clinic. Options span miniabdominoplasty for below-the-navel laxity, full abdominoplasty, combined abdominoplasty + liposuction, and fleur-de-lis technique for major skin excess after massive weight loss. Includes overnight inpatient stay.

Abdominoplasty restores a flat, firm abdominal wall when skin and muscle have been stretched beyond their capacity to recover — most commonly after pregnancy or significant weight loss. No amount of exercise can remove redundant skin or close a true diastasis; surgery is the definitive correction. **Techniques:** - *Miniabdominoplasty (39,900 Kč):* removes a smaller skin ellipse below the navel through a shorter incision — for limited lower-abdominal laxity with good upper-abdominal tone. - *Full abdominoplasty (54,900 Kč):* a hip-to-hip incision low on the abdomen allows removal of the skin apron between the pubis and navel, with the navel repositioned. Combined with the diastasis repair surcharge, the rectus muscles are stitched back to the midline, narrowing the waist and improving core function. - *Abdominoplasty + liposuction (64,400 Kč):* adds liposuction of one area (typically flanks) for better waist definition in the same operation. - *Fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty (79,900 Kč):* adds a vertical excision for patients with massive horizontal and vertical skin excess, typically after bariatric-level weight loss. **Hospital stay and recovery:** Surgery is performed under general anaesthesia at the Praha 9 – Vysočany surgical suite with a one-night stay (meals, medication and compression stockings covered by the published GA surcharge). Patients wear an abdominal compression garment for ~6 weeks, walk slightly bent for the first week, and avoid lifting and sport for 6 weeks. The scar sits low enough to hide under underwear and fades substantially over 12 months. **Candidacy:** Best results come at a stable weight; the clinic's surgeons assess skin quality, diastasis width and hernia presence at consultation, and may recommend liposuction alone where skin tone is good.
