Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) Surgery in Hyderabad - Dr. Ram Bhupal Rao
Understanding Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area while tightening the underlying muscles. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or have excess abdominal skin that does not respond to diet and exercise. At Akruti Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Centre, we use advanced techniques to help you achieve a flatter and more contoured abdomen.
Why Choose Abdominoplasty?
Abdominoplasty offers several benefits, including:
- Flatter Abdomen: Remove excess skin and fat to achieve a smoother, flatter abdominal profile.
- Improved Muscle Tone: Tighten and strengthen abdominal muscles that may have been stretched or weakened.
- Enhanced Body Proportion: Create a more balanced and proportionate physique.
- Boosted Confidence: Feel more confident and comfortable in your clothing and body.

At Akruti Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Centre, we offer various abdominoplasty techniques tailored to your specific needs:

4. Circumferential Abdominoplasty:

FAQs About Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens the abdominal muscles to create a flatter, more toned appearance.
Ideal candidates are individuals with excess abdominal skin and fat, weakened abdominal muscles, and those who are in good overall health. It is often recommended for those who have experienced significant weight loss or pregnancy.
Types include full abdominoplasty, mini tummy tuck, extended abdominoplasty, and circumferential abdominoplasty, each tailored to different levels of skin removal and contouring needs.
The procedure involves general anesthesia, a horizontal incision across the lower abdomen, removal of excess skin and fat, muscle tightening, and repositioning the navel if needed.
Preparation involves following pre-operative instructions, avoiding certain medications, arranging for post-surgery care, and planning for a recovery period.
Recovery involves managing swelling and bruising, wearing compression garments, and avoiding strenuous activities. Full results are typically visible within 3 to 6 months.
Scarring is typically minimal and strategically placed to be less noticeable. Over time, scars will fade and become less prominent.
Yes, abdominoplasty can be combined with other procedures, such as liposuction or a body lift, to enhance overall body contouring.
Tummy Tuck Surgery (Abdominoplasty) Cost in Hyderabad
The estimated cost of tummy tuck surgery in Hyderabad ranges from ₹1,75,000 to ₹2,50,000. However, the final cost varies for each patient because abdominoplasty is planned according to the amount of loose skin, abdominal muscle condition, body contouring requirements and the complexity of the procedure.
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, removes excess abdominal skin and may tighten weakened or separated abdominal muscles. In some patients, liposuction may be combined with the procedure to remove localised fat and achieve a smoother, more proportionate abdominal contour. A tummy tuck is a body-contouring procedure and should not be considered a weight-loss treatment.
Factors Affecting Tummy Tuck Surgery Cost
The overall cost may depend on:
- Whether a mini, full, extended or circumferential tummy tuck is required
- The amount of excess skin that needs to be removed
- Whether abdominal muscle repair is needed
- Whether liposuction is combined with the surgery
- Surgeon and anaesthetist fees
- Hospital, operation theatre and room charges
- Pre-surgery tests and medical investigations
- Compression garments, medicines and follow-up care
The duration of tummy tuck surgery also varies depending on the type of procedure, the extent of muscle repair and whether additional body-contouring procedures are performed.
During the consultation at Akruti Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Centre, the surgeon examines the abdomen, skin elasticity, fat distribution, muscle separation, previous scars and overall health before recommending the most suitable procedure. Patients are then provided with a personalised treatment plan and a detailed cost estimate.
