170

Struggling with loose abdominal skin, weakened muscles, or stubborn belly fat that won’t go away despite diet and exercise? Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, can help you achieve a firmer, flatter midsection. At Dr. Dangs Clinic, Dr. Shivam Dang offers expert tummy tuck surgery in Dehradun to help patients regain confidence in their bodies.


What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens weakened abdominal muscles. It’s especially beneficial for:

  • Post-pregnancy body changes
  • Significant weight loss resulting in sagging skin
  • Aging-related skin laxity
  • Diastasis recti (separated abdominal muscles)

What to Expect Before Surgery

✅ Initial Consultation

Your journey begins with a consultation with Dr. Shivam Dang, who will assess your abdominal structure, skin quality, medical history, and aesthetic goals.

✅ Pre-Surgery Instructions

You’ll be advised to:

  • Stop smoking (if applicable)
  • Avoid certain medications and supplements
  • Get preoperative blood tests done
  • Plan for at least 1–2 weeks of downtime

The Day of Surgery

The tummy tuck is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2–3 hours. During the procedure:

  • Dr. Dang makes a horizontal incision along the lower abdomen
  • Excess skin and fat are removed
  • Abdominal muscles are tightened and sutured
  • Skin is redraped for a flatter, tighter contour

Mini, full, or extended tummy tucks may be recommended depending on your body type and aesthetic needs.
