Tummy Tuck with Dr. Hong – Expert Body Contouring Across Gangnam, Apgujeong, Cheongdam, Myeongdong, Hongdae and All of Seoul

Restore a Flat, Firm Abdomen

A tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat, tightens separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), and refines the waistline. At Fresh Dr. Hong Clinic, your plan is customized—mini or full abdominoplasty, with or without liposuction—for natural contours and discreet scars.

Who’s a Good Candidate

  • Loose or overhanging abdominal skin after pregnancy or weight change
  • Bulging from muscle separation despite diet and exercise
  • Stable weight and good general health, with realistic expectations

Procedure Options

  • Mini Tummy Tuck: Treats lower belly laxity below the navel; shorter scar; no umbilical repositioning.
  • Full Tummy Tuck: Tightens muscles above/below the navel, removes excess skin, and repositions the belly button.
  • Extended / 360 Approach: For significant laxity around the waist/hips; often combined with flank/back liposuction.
  • Add-Ons: Mons lift/refinement, stretch-mark improvement in removed skin zone (case-dependent).

Technique Overview

Precise low incision placement is marked to sit under underwear lines. Excess skin/fat are removed, the rectus muscles are repaired (plication) for a flatter profile, and the umbilicus is shaped and repositioned (full tuck). Liposuction blends the upper abdomen and flanks for an hourglass effect. Meticulous closure supports thin, even scars.

Recovery Timeline (Typical)

  • Days 1–3: Tightness and swelling; compression garment; early walking to reduce clot risk.
  • Week 1: Light activity; drains (if used) removed per progress.
  • Weeks 2–3: Back to desk work (case-dependent); posture gradually upright.
  • Weeks 4–6: Light exercise resumes; avoid core/heavy lifting until cleared.
  • Months 3–6: Scar maturation and final contour refinement.

Results & Longevity

Results are long-lasting with weight stability and core fitness. Scars lighten over time with guided scar care and sun protection.

Safety & Considerations

Discussed in consult: bleeding, infection, seroma, delayed healing, scar quality, asymmetry, numbness, DVT/PE prevention, and revision likelihood. You’ll receive individualized risk counseling and a structured follow-up plan.

FAQs

Will a tummy tuck remove all stretch marks? Only those within the skin that’s removed; others may be softened by tension release or adjunct treatments.
 Can it be combined with lipo or breast procedures? Yes—commonly part of a mommy makeover when safe to do so.
 How soon after childbirth? Generally 6–12 months after delivery/breastfeeding, once weight is stable.
