A Tummy Tuck, also known as an Abdominoplasty, is an operation to remove excess fat and skin from the tummy (abdomen) and tighten the abdominal muscles.

A Flatter, Firmer and Sleeker Tummy Can Be Yours

Have you ever considered a tummy tuck? If you are finding it hard to shift fat from your tummy, or you have loose wrinkled skin following weight loss or having children, this can be one of the most effective cosmetic procedures.

There are many reasons why you may be unhappy with your stomach, and that dissatisfaction could be having an impact on your quality of life. Wouldn’t it be great to have the confidence to wear figure skimming clothes, or to get into those jeans that have been hanging in your wardrobe for so long?

Tummy Tuck

How Abdominoplasty Solves the Problem

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to flatten a protruding abdomen by tightening the muscles in the abdominal wall. Before the procedure, we will talk to you about the parts of your tummy you are particularly unhappy with, so that we can focus on getting the results you want. By removing excess fatty tissue and skin, we can achieve a flatter and sleeker tummy to be proud of and show off confidently. Whether you have a roll of fat that hangs over your waistline, wrinkled skin, stretch marks or stretched muscles, we can resolve these problems with our effective abdominoplasty procedures.

Is Abdominoplasty Right for Me?

During your consultation, we will assess your case and reasons for considering abdominoplasty. Every case is different, but we are always confident that we can help the majority of our patients with our surgical procedures. If your weight has stabilised following a weight loss programme, or you have reached your ideal weight and need help shifting that excess fat around your tummy, we would love to help you.

What Happens During the Procedure?

The surgical procedure involves an incision around the belly button, and another incision just above the pubic area from one hip to the other. This allows us to focus on removing any surplus skin and fat. We normally make the incision low enough that you can conceal it easily with underwear or swimwear.

A tummy tuck can be a fairly extensive procedure and is performed under a general anaesthetic. As a result, you will normally need to stay with us for around 1-2 days.

How Long Does the Healing Process Take after A Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck can give almost instant and very dramatic results. Recovery times depend on the individual, and we assess each case individually so that we can deliver the right aftercare. Any pain or discomfort following the procedure can be controlled with medication, and you must refrain from any strenuous activity or lifting. Most patients are back to work or their normal daily routine within 4 weeks. However, this will depend on your nature of work, and again we will give you advice tailored to your needs.

Speak to Us Today to Find Out More about Tummy Tucks

If your tummy is an area of your body you are constantly trying to cover, we can help. A tummy tuck can give you back that freedom and a renewed appreciation and love for your new body. We have helped countless patients get back into those jeans, cocktail dresses and bikinis.

Patient Testimonials

"I am extremely happy with the treatment, and with the standard of care I have received. There is no doubt as to whether this treatment is highly effective. I have had several cosmetic surgeries (although not on my face) but can say in comparing the results of the Spring Thread procedure with other less invasive treatments, the results are more in keeping with the surgical procedures I have had." Spring Thread Patient Review, Cosmetech at Kingsbridge Patient
"I had surgery here at the weekend and I can't recommend this place highly enough. They took great care of me and kept me at ease throughout my stay. The staff were brilliant, really friendly and chatted away and the food was top class. This hospital was better than any hotel I wonder could I book a weekend away in it when I fully recover?" Mr McGinnity, Kingsbridge Patient
"EXCELLENT - Had surgery today under the very caring Dr Stewart and her team. I cannot thank her enough for all she’s done for me over the past few months. Everything was explained to me in detail and all my care was considerate, professional and compassionate. Everyone I’ve met today has been beyond kind from Will the Anaesthetist, the Nurses and theatre staff, the catering staff - there has been no exception. Thank you all for taking care of me so well today - look forward to getting home tomorrow x" Mrs McAleavey, Kingsbridge Patient

The doctors Roger Wilson, Sherman, David, the nurses Susan, Sinead, Siobhan, Andrea, the catering staff who provided customised halal food, and the remaining team whose names I cannot remember were the kindest, nicest, politest, the most caring, professional and pleasant people we have ever come across in healthcare environment. These are true gems and real stars. We are indebted to their treatment.
They are 7 star people. We love you!" Mr Yourish, Kingsbridge Patient

Dr Roger Wilson spoke to me around 9.45am, in Theatre for 10am, recovery for 11.10am and now currently back on ward. These guys are awesome. From the consultant to anaesthetist to nurses to cater assistants. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much. I am so grateful to everyone at Kingsbridge for the service."

Many thanks x" Ms Forde, Kingsbridge Patient
"I have just been discharged from Kingsbridge today after surgery and was in for 3 days. From start to finish my experience was excellent.

Ms Armstrong, Kingsbridge Patient

"Can’t praise Kingsbridge Private Hospital enough!! I had an operation a couple of weeks ago and I was so well looked after. My surgeon Mr Rashid was fantastic, and the nursing staff was also fabulous. I found they communicated very well to each other, so everyone knew when my meds were due, my allergies etc. They were so kind, so lovely, constantly checked to see how I was i.e. my temperature etc. The food was fabulous and the catering staff very helpful having had an operation were very happy to accommodate ... Thank you to all!" Ms Cheong, Kingsbridge Patient
"Staff very friendly and very efficient. Surgeon and surgery top class. Big thanks to the Nurses for all their care and patience" Mr Howard, Kingsbridge Patient
"I was in your facility yesterday for a day procedure (operation on my left arm). I wanted to write and express how impressed I was with the facilities and more importantly the staff on the Ward.

Everyone was excellent, and I mean excellent, i don't normally write congratulatory e-mails so this is high praise in my view. The Senior nurse was excellent, as was the Theatre nurse and the anaesthetist. Even the assistants that helped with catering and other duties. All came together to form a great impression of the establishment." Jason Carpal Tunnel Surgery, Kingsbridge Patient
