Are you struggling with excess belly fat or loose skin that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise? A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, could be the solution. At GLOJAS Plastic Surgery Specialist Clinic in Kuala Lumpur, our MOH-certified plastic surgeons perform safe and advanced tummy tuck procedures designed to restore your abdominal contour, confidence, and comfort.
What is a Tummy Tuck?
A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdominal area while tightening weakened or separated muscles. It is ideal for individuals who have undergone significant weight loss or pregnancy, leaving them with stretched or sagging abdominal skin that cannot be corrected through lifestyle changes alone.
The procedure is typically done under general anesthesia and may include a full or mini tummy tuck, depending on your goals and the extent of excess tissue.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Is a tummy tuck the same as liposuction?
No. A tummy tuck removes excess skin and tightens muscles, while liposuction removes fat. Both can be combined for optimal contouring.
2. Am I a good candidate for a tummy tuck?
Ideal candidates are healthy, near their ideal weight, and have loose skin or weakened muscles in the abdomen.
3. Will there be scars after a tummy tuck?
Yes, but our surgeons use techniques that place incisions low and discreetly. Scars typically fade over time.
4. How long do tummy tuck results last?
Results are long-lasting if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
5. Is tummy tuck surgery painful?
Some discomfort is normal, but pain is manageable with prescribed medications. Most patients return to normal activities within a few weeks.
