After pregnancy or heavy weight loss, the abdominal wall does not always form back as desired, so that a sagging abdominal area or even a fat apron can occur. This often leads to the desire to tighten the abdomen. By means of a tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, we give your abdomen back its shape and contour. Excess skin and fatty tissue is removed, the abdomen is tightened and the navel and abdominal muscles are properly positioned. Often, abdominoplasty is also combined with liposuction. The goal of abdominoplasty is always to achieve a taut, contoured abdomen.<\/p>\n

In our Clinic for Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery in Basel, women often take advantage of a tummy tuck as part of a mommy makeover. The tummy tuck can also be used to remove stretch marks below the navel. If the excess skin is not very pronounced, a mini-abdominoplasty may be sufficient for correction. As part of a tummy tuck after pregnancy, C-section scars can also be corrected. If the long abdominal muscles become loose after one or more pregnancies, additional rectus diastasis surgery may sometimes be necessary. Dr. L\u00fcdi will be happy to advise you in a personal woman-to-woman consultation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"23\n\t\t\t\t\"tummy\n\t

The consultation<\/h2>\nAs a plastic surgeon, Dr. L\u00fcdi specializes in body contouring procedures and will be happy to advise you personally on the topic of tummy tuck in her clinic in Basel.
\nIn an initial detailed consultation, Dr. L\u00fcdi will take the time to address your concerns, analyze the findings together with you and advise you on treatment options. Here we will clarify whether abdominoplasty or mini-abdominoplasty is the right choice for you or whether, for example, another treatment method is more suitable for you. Dr. L\u00fcdi will also explain the surgical technique and the exact incision with the help of pictures and drawings and will discuss the aftercare as well as possible risks and complications with you. Dr. L\u00fcdi will also be happy to show you before and after photos of an abdominoplasty.\n

On the day of surgery<\/h2>\n

On the day of the operation, Dr. L\u00fcdi prepares a photo documentation before the operation and makes the exact markings on the abdomen. You will then be prepared for the upcoming operation and accompanied to the operating room.<\/p>\n

The operation - abdominoplasty with liposuction<\/h2>\n

The tummy tuck is performed under general anesthesia on an outpatient basis in our clinic's own operating theatre or, depending on the indication, with an overnight stay. The incision is made in such a way that the scar is concealed by the bikini bottoms or underwear.<\/p>\n

Classic abdominoplasty<\/h4>\n

First, liposuction is performed in the upper and lower abdomen. Then excess skin and fatty tissue is detached from the abdominal wall and removed. Subsequently, the abdominal wall is pulled down and tightened. If there is a rectus diastasis, i.e. diverging abdominal muscles, these are re-centered and tightened to strengthen the abdominal wall. In addition, during abdominoplasty, the belly button is moved and repositioned.<\/p>\n

Mini Abdominoplasty<\/h4>\n

If there is only a small amount of excess skin in the lower abdomen, a mini-abdominoplasty can be performed without moving the belly button. In this case, the incision runs horizontally above the pubic hair and is somewhat shorter compared to the classic abdominoplasty. The excess tissue is removed in a spindle shape and the lower abdomen is tightened.<\/p>\n

Immediately after surgery<\/h2>\nAfter the operation, you can recover from the procedure in our beautiful patient rooms with a view of the Rhine and will be looked after by our team. After another visit by Dr. L\u00fcdi, you can be picked up by an accompanying person and return home the same day.
\nDepending on the indication, the operation can also be performed as a short inpatient procedure with an overnight stay.\n
