Procedure details
Dr. Aline Rau makes a low, discreet incision beneath the bikini line to conceal it with underwear once it’s healed. Loose skin and fat are removed, and connective tissues and muscles are tightened for a contoured appearance. The remaining skin is smoothed, and the belly button is artfully repositioned for a natural look.
For enhanced results, tummy tucks can be combined with liposuction to contour the waistline and address excess fat in the flanks. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically lasts about four hours.
Recovery & aftercare
You can expect some initial swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which are expected as the body heals. Our team will provide detailed post-operative instructions, including compression garments for your recovery. Gradual resumption of light activities and gentle walking is encouraged to promote healthy circulation. Rest and avoiding strenuous activities during the initial weeks are crucial for optimal healing.
Dr. Aline Rau will closely monitor your progress throughout your recovery, offering guidance and support to ensure a comfortable healing experience. Our ultimate goal is to help you enjoy the results of your smooth, contoured tummy tuck with confidence and peace of mind.

Mini Tummy Tuck
A mini abdominoplasty, or a mini tummy tuck, offers a less-invasive option for minimal excess skin.
It is best suited for individuals whose loose skin is isolated to the lower abdomen and who have minimal separation of their abdominal muscles (diastasis).
