A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is an operation to remove excess stretched skin and fat tissue from the abdominal wall and to repair the separation of the rectus muscles. It is the most effective way to regain a flat, taut abdomen after pregnancies or major weight loss - when exercise and diet can no longer help.

Tummy tuck - what does the procedure involve?
Abdominal wall surgery is a surgical procedure aimed at restoring the firmness and aesthetic appearance of the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat tissue and often also suturing the separation of the rectus muscles. At Luna Clinic we most often perform this procedure in patients after pregnancies, major weight reduction or in the case of abdominal-wall laxity.
A key element of a full abdominoplasty is suturing the stretched rectus abdominis muscles (linea alba plasty) - it is this that restores a flat abdominal profile and a narrow waist, and often also reduces lower-back pain resulting from a weakened muscular corset.
Indications for the procedure
Whether the procedure is advisable for you is ultimately decided by the doctor during the consultation.
- Excess loose skin in the lower and/or upper abdomen
- Separation of the rectus abdominis muscles (diastasis recti)
- A lack of results after exercise and weight reduction
- Deformation of the abdomen after a caesarean section or operations
- Skin folds causing discomfort and dermatological problems
Contraindications
How to prepare for the procedure?
The procedure is always preceded by a qualification consultation with a plastic surgeon - we discuss expectations, examine the area to be operated on and establish an individual treatment plan. As standard, we order a full set of tests (blood count, coagulation, electrolytes, ECG for general anaesthesia) and, if necessary, additional specialist consultations.
- Consultation with a plastic surgeon for qualification, discussing expectations and the treatment plan
- Laboratory tests
- Stopping anticoagulant medications at least 14 days before the operation (after consulting a doctor)
- Avoiding alcohol and cigarette smoking for at least 14 days before the procedure - for better healing
- Thorough skin hygiene on the day of the procedure (no make-up, creams or lotions)
The tummy-tuck procedure step by step
Recovery and post-procedure recommendations
- Swelling and bruising are natural and diminish within 2-4 weeks
- Sleeping with the head elevated is recommended for the first few days
- Dressings and sutures cared for according to the doctor’s recommendations
- Sutures are usually removed after 7-14 days
- Avoiding intense physical exertion and bending over for a minimum of 4-6 weeks
- No sunbathing or use of a solarium for a minimum of 6 months - SPF 50 protection is necessary
- After full healing, scar massages and products supporting their maturation may be introduced - according to the doctor’s recommendation
- Check-ups: about 1 month after the procedure, then after 3, 6 and 12 months
Treatment effects
The result of a tummy tuck is a flat, taut abdomen, a clearer waist and a repaired muscular corset - without a skin fold or “apron”. During the procedure the caesarean-section scar and most stretch marks below the navel can also be removed. The full result is visible after 6-12 months.
The procedure achieves an aesthetic, taut and flat abdomen. The waistline becomes clearer, and the muscle separation is closed.
The effect is permanent, provided the patient maintains a stable weight and is not planning another pregnancy.
The scar is made low - below the underwear line - and over time becomes thin and light.

PoPossible complications and risks
Like any surgical procedure, this one also carries a certain risk - at Luna Clinic we minimise it through careful qualification, operating in operating-block conditions and the team’s experience. Possible complications include:
- Haematoma, infection, delayed healing
- Scar hypertrophy, asymmetry, navel deformation
- Long-lasting swelling, sensory disturbances in the lower abdomen
- Rarely - thrombosis or fat embolism (hospital prophylaxis)
Frequently asked questions
Can a tummy tuck be combined with liposuction?
Yes - if needed, the flanks, waist or thighs can be modelled at the same time.
Does this procedure make you lose weight?
No - abdominoplasty contours the figure but is not a weight-loss method.
Does the caesarean scar remain?
No - the old scar is usually excised and replaced with a new one, made lower and more evenly.
Can I still have children after the procedure?
You can - but pregnancy may worsen the result. It is best to have the procedure after completing family plans.
Is the scar very visible?
The scar is located low, under the underwear. Over time it becomes thin and light.
How long does recovery take?
You can return to office work after 2-3 weeks. To physical activity - after 6-8 weeks.
Can the muscle separation be sutured?
Yes - if it is present, we suture the stretched linea alba during the procedure.
Czy zabieg boli?
Some discomfort is felt, but post-operative pain is effectively controlled with medication
Is the effect permanent?
Yes - provided a stable body weight is maintained.
When will I see the result?
The first effects are visible after a few weeks, but the final result after 3-6 months.
Does a tummy tuck remove stretch marks?
Yes - all stretch marks located on the excised piece of skin (usually below the navel) are removed with it. Stretch marks above the navel are lowered and tightened.
When after pregnancy can a tummy tuck be performed?
We recommend waiting a minimum of 6-12 months after delivery and finishing breastfeeding; it is best to plan the procedure after completing motherhood plans.

What does the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) involve?
Tummy tuck is a procedure in the field of plastic surgery. At Luna Clinic, every treatment plan is created individually - we start with a thorough consultation and qualification, during which the doctor discusses expectations, assesses the starting situation and selects the scope and technique of the procedure. Thanks to this, the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is safe, predictable and tailored to the anatomy and real needs of the specific person. We focus on a natural rather than artificial effect - so that the result emphasises individual beauty and remains in harmony with the rest of the figure or facial features. You will find a full, detailed description of the method in the upper part of this page.
the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) - who is it for? Indications and qualification
The best way to answer whether the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is advisable in your case is during a consultation. The doctor always decides on qualification after an examination - we take into account the state of health, expectations and the real possibilities of the given method. If the procedure is not needed or safe at the moment, we will say so directly and suggest a sensible alternative. Such an honest conversation is the basis of a good decision and satisfaction with the result - which is why we never persuade anyone into unnecessary procedures.
How does the procedure go?
The course is planned to take maximum care of your comfort and safety. We work in comfortable conditions that meet all standards, and an experienced team oversees the process. All recommendations - preparation, contraindications and post-procedure conduct - are discussed individually and also provided in writing, so that the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) proceeds calmly, predictably and without surprises.
Effects and durability - the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) before and after
The effects that the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) provides are always assessed individually. A natural, harmonious refreshment of appearance or an improvement of proportions is the goal we strive for with every patient. “Before and after” transformations are best viewed in our results gallery - they show the real outcomes of our work. Remember that the durability and quality of the effect are also influenced by lifestyle, care and consistent adherence to post-procedure recommendations.

After the procedure you remain under the clinic’s care - in the first days, contact with a doctor is available, and we schedule follow-up visits until full healing and assessment of the effect.
