You've Lost The Weight But Your Stomach Still Doesn't Reflect It
A heavy fold of skin hangs over your waistline, creating discomfort and concealing the flatter stomach underneath.
Your core feels weak or your stomach protrudes despite being at a healthy weight, because the muscles have separated and not come back together.
The fold of skin traps moisture and causes chafing, rashes or recurring infections that are difficult to manage.
Waistbands dig in, shirts hang awkwardly and you find yourself adjusting clothing throughout the day to accommodate the excess.
A tummy tuck after weight loss, also known as post-bariatric abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes the significant excess skin and fat that remains around the abdomen once substantial weight has been lost. Where the abdominal muscles have separated, they are repaired and tightened as part of the same operation.
At UKSKIN, post-weight-loss tummy tucks are planned around each patient's specific pattern of skin excess and muscle laxity. A mini tummy tuck may be appropriate where loose skin is confined to below the belly button, while a full abdominoplasty addresses the entire abdominal wall. A Fleur-de-lis tummy tuck may be recommended where vertical as well as horizontal skin excess is present.
Surgically remove the apron of excess abdominal skin that diet, exercise and time cannot correct.
Bring separated muscles back together to restore core strength and a flatter abdominal profile.
Remove the tissue that causes chafing, irritation and hygiene issues beneath the fold.
Allow your midsection to reflect the weight you have lost, rather than concealing it under loose tissue.

Patient Testimonials
The UKSKIN Process
Your Patient Coordinator will learn about your weight-loss journey, your concerns about your abdomen and what you would like surgery to achieve.
Your surgeon will examine the extent of skin excess and check for muscle separation to determine whether a mini, full or Fleur-de-lis tummy tuck is most appropriate.
You'll receive a tailored plan and quote covering the recommended procedure, expected recovery and any additional contouring that may benefit your result.
Your tummy tuck will be performed under general anaesthetic, with excess skin removed, muscles repaired and the abdomen reshaped according to your agreed plan.

A mini tummy tuck addresses loose skin below the belly button only. A full tummy tuck removes excess skin across the entire abdomen and includes muscle repair. Your surgeon will recommend the right option based on your examination.
A Fleur-de-lis tummy tuck removes skin both horizontally and vertically, making it suitable for patients with significant excess in both directions — which is common after major weight loss.
If muscle separation is present, your surgeon will repair and tighten the abdominal wall as part of the procedure to restore core support and a flatter profile.
Most patients need two to four weeks before returning to normal daily activities. Full healing, including the settling of swelling and scar maturation, takes several months.
