Tummy tuck in Düsseldorf
by Aesthetify
The fat deposits on the stomach are among the most stubborn on the entire body. Even with disciplined training and a healthy diet, it is often not possible to achieve the flat stomach that many people desire. Pregnancy also makes the stomach a problem area for many women and leaves behind sagging skin that cannot be “trained away”. A similar effect often occurs after losing a lot of weight; here too, excess skin is often left behind, which can affect the body image of those affected. While there can be many reasons for this, the only effective solution is a tummy tuck. At Aesthetify in Düsseldorf, the procedure is performed by experienced specialists in aesthetic plastic surgery who use their expertise to achieve your desired silhouette.

Reasons for a tummy tuck at Aesthetify in Düsseldorf
Many circumstances can lead to sagging, drooping skin in the abdominal area. However, it is not always just the skin that those affected find disturbing – abdominal fat also stubbornly persists and in some cases is not reduced even with a consistently healthy diet and exercise. With an abdominoplasty, i.e. a tummy tuck in Düsseldorf, you can fulfill your desire for a firm body contour.
Stubborn belly fat
Important to know: A tummy tuck at Aesthetify in Düsseldorf should not be seen as a weight loss treatment, but rather tightens excess skin. In conjunction with liposuction, however, stubborn fat deposits, which are particularly common on the abdomen, can be reduced. Abdominal fat cells have more alpha receptors than fat cells in other areas of the body. As these receptors slow down the breakdown of fat, it is difficult to get rid of fat deposits in this area using conventional methods. Liposuction in combination with a tummy tuck is often the method of choice to remove these fat deposits and the resulting excess skin.
Excess skin after weight loss
Have you resolved to reduce your weight significantly and achieved this goal thanks to a balanced diet and the right training? That’s something to be proud of. But you may now notice excess, hanging skin that was previously filled out – a common consequence of weight loss. Fat aprons on the abdomen in particular are perceived as unpleasant and can be removed during a tummy tuck by our specialists in Düsseldorf.
Abdominoplasty after pregnancy
Pregnancy demands a lot from a woman’s body – and changes it. If a woman returns to her normal weight after giving birth, in many cases she is still left with a visibly bulging stomach and excess, sagging skin. A tummy tuck at Aesthetify in Düsseldorf can be part of a mommy makeover that not only reshapes the tummy, but also the breasts and other areas of the body.
Hygiene problems due to skin folds
It is not always for purely aesthetic reasons that women or men decide to have a tummy tuck. Sagging skin areas can lead to moist, permanently irritated skin, sometimes even to an unpleasant odor despite skin cleansing and care. Those affected can permanently eliminate these hygiene problems by tightening the skin.
Better body image thanks to a tummy tuck
Feeling good in your own body – that’s what it’s all about. At Aesthetify in Düsseldorf, we want to help you achieve this goal and feel good again when you look in the mirror.
A tummy tuck can not only remove excess skin and tissue, but also reduce stretch marks and correct minor asymmetries. The best time for the procedure is in the fall or winter months, as the cooler season makes the healing phase more comfortable – and you can show off your skin in the summer with a good feeling and new self-confidence.

Procedure
Your first appointment at our clinic is an opportunity to get to know each other, for an examination and consultation. We will check the current condition of the fatty tissue and skin on your abdomen, ask about your wishes and advise you on possible surgical techniques. On the day of the tummy tuck, you will come to our clinic in Düsseldorf on an empty stomach – you should stop taking blood-thinning medication 14 days before the operation. You will be informed again about the procedure and put under general anesthesia by our experienced anesthetist. The tummy tuck is performed through a minimal incision and takes about four hours. After the procedure, you will usually remain in the clinic for one to two days for monitoring. Depending on the surgical technique, an outpatient procedure may also be an option.
Scars
Like any operation, a tummy tuck at our clinic in Düsseldorf does not come without an incision and therefore a possible scar. Our expert surgeons place the incision in the bikini line, at the pubic hairline, so that the scar is barely visible after the healing phase.
Visibility of the result
Immediately after a tummy tuck, you will notice a visibly slimmer silhouette. However, the tissue in the treated area will still be swollen at first, so the final result will only be fully visible after several weeks.
Recovery phase & downtime
Following the tummy tuck and your stay at our clinic in Düsseldorf, you should take it easy for two to four weeks and avoid sport for at least six weeks. Depending on how physically demanding your work activity is, you will usually be able to return to work after around two weeks. In most cases, the healing process is complete after a total of twelve weeks.
FAQ on abdominoplasty
Who is a tummy tuck suitable for?
At Aesthetify in Düsseldorf, we perform tummy tucks from the age of majority. The procedure can be suitable after pregnancy as well as after significant weight loss or to reduce stubborn fat deposits on the abdomen in order to achieve a significantly slimmer silhouette or greater visibility of the abdominal muscles.
Is it necessary to wear compression garments after the operation?
Yes, you should wear a compression girdle for the first few weeks after your tummy tuck to support the healing process. The girdle will be provided for you by your attending physician at our clinic in Düsseldorf.
Is pregnancy possible after a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck at Aesthetify in Düsseldorf does not affect a subsequent pregnancy. However, pregnancy will change your body and excess skin may reappear – we therefore recommend the procedure only after family planning has been completed.
Does a combination with other procedures make sense?
A tummy tuck is often preceded by liposuction to reduce fatty tissue before the skin is tightened. It is also possible to combine a tummy tuck in women with a breast lift to shape not only the abdominal area but the entire upper body.
How long do the results of a tummy tuck last?
A tummy tuck performed by our experienced specialists in Düsseldorf leads to an aesthetic result that usually lasts – as long as your weight remains stable. Once the healing phase is complete, make sure you get enough exercise, play sport and eat a healthy, balanced diet to maintain your firm, beautiful tummy for a long time.
