What is a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and who is an ideal candidate in Jaipur?
#A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a major cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess hanging skin and stubborn fat from the abdomen while repairing separated abdominal wall muscles (diastasis recti). Ideal candidates in Jaipur include mothers with post-pregnancy skin laxity and post-bariatric weight-loss patients. Dr. Vishal Purohit performs tummy tucks for flat, toned waists.

What is the difference between a mini and a full tummy tuck with Dr. Vishal Purohit?
#A mini tummy tuck addresses mild skin laxity confined below the belly button via a short bikini incision without repositioning the navel. A full tummy tuck tightens the entire abdominal wall from ribs to pubis, repairs muscle separation, and repositions the navel naturally. Dr. Vishal Purohit advises on the appropriate option in Jaipur.

How is muscle repair (diastasis recti plication) performed during abdominoplasty?
#Dr. Vishal Purohit uses heavy, non-absorbable internal sutures to plicate (sew together) the stretched abdominal rectus muscles along the midline, functioning like an internal corset. This permanently restores abdominal wall firmness, flattens belly protrusion, and relieves postural lower back pain in Jaipur patients.

Where is the tummy tuck scar located and will it be visible?
#The surgical incision is placed low across the lower abdomen, designed to sit entirely below bikini, underwear, or low-rise swimwear lines. Dr. Vishal Purohit uses layered tension-relieving closure and post-operative scar therapies in Jaipur so the scar matures into a faint, flat line over 9 to 12 months.
