Tummy Tuck in Seoul: Tightening Loose Skin After Fat Removal

When the abdomen has lost a lot of volume, from weight loss or pregnancy, fat removal alone can leave the skin hanging. A tummy tuck deals with that: the excess skin is removed and the closure sits along the bikini line, where clothing hides it.

What it is for

Tighten abdominal skin and muscle that sag heavily after liposuction.

What happens in the procedure

Liposuction is done first. The excess skin is then removed, and the incision is placed along the bikini line so that it stays covered.

How long it takes

About 1.5 hours on top of the liposuction.

Downtime

Three days of bed rest with the thighs slightly bent, with a drain in place after surgery. Light activity only for two weeks. Heavy exercise from week four.

After the procedure

• Check-ups on day 3, day 14 (stitches out, RF session), day 21 (RF) and day 28 (RF).
• On day 3 the first dressing is replaced with a compression garment and a waterproof dressing; showering is allowed from then.
• Garment 24/7 for the first month, then nights only from month 1 to month 6.
• No activity that raises the heart rate sharply for one month.

Who it suits

Clients with excess abdominal circumference and skin that sags heavily.

Why clients choose Juneis for this

Juneis is a clinic in Seoul, and the way this procedure is done follows what Korean aesthetic surgery is known for: ultrasound and vibration cannulas for fat, work on the SMAS layer for the face, supermicro processing before a fat transfer, and RF sessions built into the recovery schedule. The check-up dates and garment rules above come from the clinic's own protocol for this procedure.

The specialist who plans your case is the one who performs it and sees you at every check-up. Your consultation, your procedure and your records stay between you and that medical team. Many of the clinic's international clients, including from Indonesia, come for exactly that reason.

Before you decide

Every procedure starts with a consultation, in person or remote, where the surgeon confirms whether you are a candidate and sets the plan. Read how to prepare before plastic surgery and what to do after, then contact the clinic on WhatsApp at +62 812-2790-7386 or through the contact page.

Frequently asked questions

Will the scar show?

The incision runs along the bikini line, so underwear and swimwear cover it.

Why bed rest with bent knees?

It takes tension off the abdominal closure in the first three days, which protects the result and keeps you comfortable.

Do I need liposuction first?

Yes. A tummy tuck at Juneis is done after liposuction of the abdomen; the two are planned as one operation.

When can I go back to work?

Light activity resumes after the three-day bed rest; most desk work fits within the two-week light-activity window. Your surgeon confirms based on your case.
