Introduction
Abdominoplasty removes selected excess abdominal skin and may tighten separated muscles. It is body-contouring surgery rather than a treatment for weight loss.
When it may be considered
It may be considered after stable weight, pregnancy or major weight change when loose skin and abdominal laxity remain troublesome.
How it is performed
The surgeon designs an incision, removes excess tissue, repairs the abdominal wall when needed and creates a new position for the navel. A drain or compression garment may be used.
Treatment cost by approach
Published costs can differ by procedure type, clinical complexity and what the hospital includes. These figures are informational planning estimates; the treating team confirms the applicable price after reviewing the patient’s records.
