Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) in Jaipur | Abdominal Contouring by Dr. Sushrut Kalra
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess, loose skin and fat from the abdomen while also repairing weakened or separated abdominal muscles. Diet and exercise are important for overall health, but they can't tighten loose skin or repair separated abdominal muscles, a condition known as diastasis recti, which often develops after pregnancy or major weight changes.
Dr. Sushrut Kalra specializes in advanced tummy tuck surgery in Jaipur, using a precise, carefully planned approach that avoids unnecessary tension on the skin. By combining targeted fat removal with internal muscle repair, the goal is a flatter, more supported abdominal wall with a well-hidden, low positioned scar.
What a Tummy Tuck Addresses
-
Separated Abdominal Muscles Repairs muscles that have separated, often after pregnancy, by bringing them back together and securing them for better core support and a flatter profile.
-
Loose or Hanging Abdominal Skin Removes excess skin, along with any stretch marks located within that area, for a smoother, firmer abdominal contour.
-
Belly Button Repositioning Carefully repositions the belly button through the procedure, so the final result looks natural rather than surgically altered.
-
Reducing Fluid Buildup After Surgery Uses a specific suturing technique that helps reduce the risk of fluid collecting under the skin after surgery, often reducing the need for drains.
-
A Plan Tailored to Your Needs If skin laxity is limited to the area below the belly button with no muscle separation, a smaller, less invasive version of this surgery may be recommended instead.
-
A Well-Hidden Scar The main incision is placed low on the abdomen, positioned to stay hidden beneath regular underwear and swimwear.
