Tummy Tuck in Barcelona

Tummy tuck surgery is recommended in specific cases to correct excess skin, abdominal sagging, and, in some cases, separation of the abdominal muscles. It is not a standard cosmetic procedure or an alternative to weight loss.

At Clínica Belba, each case is evaluated individually. The surgeon works closely with the patient from the initial consultation through the procedure and throughout the postoperative period, with the goal of achieving a natural, functional, and safe result.

What is a tummy tuck?

Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that combines the removal of excess skin and fat from the abdomen with the tightening of the abdominal wall muscles, resulting in a flatter stomach and a more defined waistline.
In many cases, the procedure also addresses diastasis recti (separation of the rectus abdominis muscles) or sagging skin following pregnancy or significant weight loss.

In what cases is a tummy tuck recommended?

Tummy tucks in Barcelona are recommended for patients with excess abdominal skin, significant sagging, or muscle separation, typically following pregnancy or significant weight loss.

During the medical evaluation, the surgeon determines whether this surgery is the appropriate option, whether it needs to be combined with other techniques, or whether there are less invasive alternatives for the specific case.

Real stories after a tummy tuck

How it's done: a step-by-step guide

The procedure is performed in the operating room under general anesthesia, following a safe and standardized protocol:

Before surgery, we perform a thorough evaluation of your abdomen, review your medical history, and develop a personalized plan. During this visit, we determine whether you need a mini-tummy tuck, a full tummy tuck, or a procedure that combines tummy tuck with liposuction.

The surgeon makes precise markings on the abdomen to identify the areas to be corrected, the amount of skin to be removed, and the final shape of the navel, if necessary.

The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the surgery.

A low incision is made just above the pubic bone, designed to be hidden under underwear or a bikini.
In a full abdominoplasty, an incision is also made around the navel to reposition it.

If there is muscle laxity or diastasis recti (muscle separation), we proceed to tighten and strengthen the abdominal muscles, improving core stability and slimming the waist.

The surgeon removes excess skin and fat, reshaping the abdomen to create a flatter, firmer surface.

The tissues are tightened, the incision is closed with fine sutures, and bandages or a compression garment are applied to aid recovery.

After surgery, you will remain under observation, and depending on your specific situation, you may be able to go home the same day or stay overnight at the Belba Cosmetic Surgery Clinic in Barcelona. Clear instructions will be provided regarding mobility, wound care, medication, and follow-up appointments.

Abdominoplasty techniques we offer

Mini-tummy tuck

Recommended when sagging is mainly concentrated in the abdominal area, below the navel; the incision is shorter and recovery is usually faster.

Full Tummy Tuck

For extensive sagging, excess skin, fat, and weakened muscles; this procedure typically involves repositioning the navel, a longer incision, and complete muscle repair.

Tummy tuck + liposuction (“lipo-tummy tuck”)

We combine abdominoplasty with liposuction of the flanks and back to achieve a comprehensive body contouring procedure. This results in a slimmer waist and a more defined abdomen.

Circular abdominoplasty

Circular abdominoplasty for patients with sagging skin around the torso (abdomen, flanks, back); the incision encircles the torso to provide a more comprehensive contour correction.
