Tummy tuck cosmetic surgery is a common procedure here at Cosmetic Surgery Partners (CSP).

As a surgical procedure, the tummy tuck, (or abdominoplasty surgery) cannot replace a healthy diet and exercise regime.

Anyone who suffers the misery of excess fat and skin around their abdominal area could benefit from tummy tuck cosmetic surgery. However, there’s a lot to consider, and the dedicated surgeons at Cosmetic Surgery Partners will take time and trouble to explain the different surgical procedures, their likely outcomes and the risks involved.
The tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty surgery, involves three basic procedures, which can be carried out as single surgeries or combined with liposuction for even more dramatic results from our cosmetic surgery clinic in London.
Standard tummy tuck cosmetic surgery involves a long cut being made to your abdomen above your pubic area. Excess fat and skin is removed, and stretched and torn muscles are pulled together and stitched into place. Bandages are then firmly strapped around the lower abdomen.
In a mini tummy tuck, excess fat and skin is removed from below the belly button. But a floating umbilicus – or floating belly button tummy tuck – often suits patients who only need moderate skin tightening but want a smooth and flat stomach.
With a floating umbilicus, the belly button is detached from the abdominal wall and moved down slightly and repositioned once the excess tissue and skin has been removed. With different options available, our expert tummy tuck surgeons will explain each procedure fully during your patient consultation. They will discuss your expectations, your general health and then advise you on the very best procedure – either a single tummy tuck or one combined with liposuction.
Unfortunately if you are someone who wants to remove loose and sagging skin around the abdominal region the only option is Abdominoplasty surgery.
We advise our patients to take 1-3 weeks off work to ensure a safe healing environment post surgically. Everything heals differently however most patients heal completely at 4-6 weeks post-surgery.
Although scarring is inevitable, our tummy tuck surgeons pride themselves on creating results that are natural looking with minimal amounts of scarring. Our surgeons will be able to advise you during your initial patient consultation.
Many of our patients use Abdominoplasty surgery as a chance to remove or minimise obvious scarring as a result of a caesarean section. Our surgeons will be able to advise you of your options during your consultation.
