What is a Tummy Tuck surgery?
Tummy Tuck, also called abdominoplasty, is a surgery that flattens the stomach. It removes loose hanging skin from the belly, and sometimes tightens the muscles under the skin. This gives your tummy a firm and slim look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I think about getting a Tummy Tuck?
If you have loose, sagging, shapeless skin or a bulging belly that doesn’t improve with diet or exercise, then Tummy Tuck may be great for you. Most of our clients are those who want their body to look more shaped or toned, especially after motherhood or significant weight loss.
What happens during the surgery?
Tummy Tuck surgery is done under anesthesia, so you’ll be comfortable and pain-free. Dr. Akhil Garg would usually make a low cut, usually below the bikini line, remove excess skin and fat, and tighten your abdominal muscles if necessary. The procedure typically takes 3-5 hours, depending on your needs. You will be admitted for one night for observation, and can go home the next morning..
What is the difference between a Tummy Tuck and liposuction?
Tummy Tuck removes extra skin and tightens weak muscles. Liposuction only removes fat. If your main issue is loose skin or stretch marks, a Tummy Tuck is the better choice. Sometimes, both procedures are done together for the best result. At Morphe by Dr. Akhil, we can help you choose what’s right for you.
How long does recovery take?
By the next morning, you will be able to walk around the room and do all your activities yourself. You will need to rest at home for the first few days. Most people return to light activities in about 2 weeks and resume normal routines within 4–6 weeks. By six weeks, you are completely fit to hit the gym and travel.
Will I have a scar?
Yes, there will be a scar, but most scars are placed low enough that it can be hidden by underwear or a swimsuit. Over time, the scar fades and becomes less noticeable—and many patients say the results are well worth it.
Can a Tummy Tuck fix separated stomach muscles (diastasis recti)?
Yes! Tummy Tuck surgery often includes tightening of the abdominal muscles that can separate during pregnancy. This not only improves the look of your belly but can also help with posture and core strength.
Is Tummy Tuck surgery safe?
Like any surgery, a Tummy Tuck has some risks, but it’s generally very safe when performed by a qualified, experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. Akhil Garg. At Morphe by Dr. Akhil, you will be in the expert care of PGI- and AIIMS-trained doctors. Dr. Akhil Garg brings 15+ years of experience across India, UK and Japan.

How long do the results last?
