Struggling with Stubborn Belly Fat?
At Rishik Cosmetic Sciences, we understand how stubborn belly fat and loose skin can impact your confidence and overall well-being. That’s why we offer advanced abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) treatments, designed to help you achieve a flatter and more toned abdomen.
What is Abdominoplasty?
Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens the underlying muscles. This procedure can help you achieve a firmer and smoother abdominal profile, especially if you have experienced significant weight loss or pregnancy.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Ideal candidates for abdominoplasty are individuals who:
- Are physically healthy and at a stable weight.
- Have realistic expectations about the outcome.
- Are non-smokers or willing to quit smoking before and after the surgery.
- Have excess skin and fat in the abdominal area that has not responded to diet and exercise.
Our Technology
At Rishik Cosmetic Sciences, we use state-of-the-art technology and techniques to ensure the highest precision and safety during your abdominoplasty procedure. Our advanced tools and methods allow for more accurate results and a quicker recovery time.
The Procedure
Consultation
During your initial consultation, our expert surgeons will evaluate your abdominal area and discuss your goals. This is a crucial step to ensure that you have realistic expectations and to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Preparation
You’ll receive detailed instructions on how to prepare for the surgery, including any necessary medical tests and guidelines for eating, drinking, and medication.
Surgery
The procedure typically takes 2-3 hours and is performed under general anesthesia. During the surgery, the surgeon will make an incision across the lower abdomen, remove excess skin and fat, and tighten the abdominal muscles.
Recovery
Most patients can return to work and normal activities within 2-4 weeks. Swelling and bruising are common but subside over time. You’ll need to follow specific post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal healing.
Benefits of Abdominoplasty

- Enhanced Confidence: Achieving a flatter abdomen can significantly boost your self-esteem and body image.
- Improved Posture: Tightening the abdominal muscles can help improve posture and alleviate back pain.
- Long-Lasting Results: Provides long-lasting results, especially with a healthy lifestyle and proper maintenance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, abdominoplasty is generally safe. However, like any surgery, it carries risks such as infection, bleeding, and anesthesia-related complications.
Recovery involves initial discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which improve over several weeks. Most patients can resume light activities within 2-4 weeks and more strenuous activities after 6-8 weeks.
Results are long-lasting, but maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle is crucial to preserve the outcomes of abdominoplasty over time.
Incisions are made low on the abdomen, typically within the bikini line, where scars can be concealed by underwear or swimwear. Scars fade over time.
Costs vary based on factors like the surgeon’s expertise, location, and extent of the procedure. On average, prices range from ₹1,50,000 to ₹4,00,000 INR or more.
Yes, abdominoplasty can significantly improve abdominal contours by removing excess skin and fat, and tightening the underlying muscles for a smoother and firmer appearance.
Risks include temporary numbness, fluid accumulation, wound healing issues, and rare complications like blood clots or infection. These risks are minimized with proper surgical technique and post-operative care.
Choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in performing abdominoplasty. Research their credentials, view before-and-after photos, and read patient testimonials to ensure they are skilled and reputable.
Abdominoplasty is not a weight-loss procedure. It removes excess skin and fat but typically results in minimal weight loss. It is most effective for contouring the abdomen after weight loss or pregnancy.
It is recommended to wait until you have completed childbearing and your weight has stabilized before considering abdominoplasty. This allows for optimal results and reduces the risk of additional skin stretching.
