A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) in Beirut typically begins with a detailed consultation to assess your goals, skin laxity, and abdominal muscles. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia in a certified clinic and usually takes 2–3 hours.
During surgery, excess skin and fat are removed, abdominal muscles may be tightened, and the area is reshaped for a flatter, firmer appearance. After the procedure, patients stay under medical supervision and are usually discharged the same or following day depending on the case.
Recovery involves wearing a compression garment, limiting activity for several weeks, and attending follow-up visits. Most patients return to light activity within 2–3 weeks and resume strenuous activity after 4–6 weeks.
