Your tummy is another very feminine aspect to your figure. While the passing of time allows women to become mothers and grandmothers, it can also present us with some less endearing challenges – like a less than firm tummy as a result of childbirth, weight gain and just getting older. We’re realistic enough to know we don’t have to have the abs of a supermodel, yet many women feel that their tummy is not the way they would like it to be, preventing them from wearing the clothes they would choose and doing the things they enjoy. That’s where a tummy tuck and plastic surgery can help.
If you’re concerned with abdominal fat, loose muscles and stretched skin, a tummy tuck, or standard abdominoplasty, can reduce excess fat and skin, while tightening and flattening the anterior abdominal wall. Abdominal surgery can play a major part in a post-pregnancy makeover, helping to restore bodies to their pre-pregnancy state.
Giving you a tummy you’ll love for years to come, our Sydney cosmetic specialist plastic surgeon Dr Edinburg will work with you to determine an abdominal operation procedure to help you achieve the look you want. And by choosing the Eden Institute, your abdominal surgery will come with the added comfort, care and confidence we’re renowned for. Dr Edinburg’s high principles mean that he will only offer treatment options that he feels are realistic and appropriate for you. I addition, each and every member of our team is experienced and trained to provide you with the highest levels of service and caring.
A tummy tuck is most effective if you are close to your ideal weight but have loose abdominal skin and weakened muscles from pregnancy or weight loss or the effects of ageing.
A tummy tuck usually takes around 3 to 4 hours under general anaesthetic.
Yes, a tummy tuck would generally require a hospital stay of 2 to 3 days.
Recovery would normally take four weeks with a full return to physical activities within six to eight weeks.
You will have stitches as well as a drain to remove fluid so you may experience temporary pain and discomfort that can be managed with painkillers.
The extent of scarring depends on how major your procedure is. An experienced, qualified cosmetic specialist, reconstructive surgeon, Dr Edinburg takes great care to minimise any scarring and its visibility.
Cost will depend on the method and extent of surgery but may range from $4000. Medicare and Health Funds have rebates associated with this procedure. It will be our pleasure to help you determine these when you speak with us.

If you’d just like to improve your lower tummy, Dr Edinburg, our principal at The Eden Institute, offers a mini-abdominoplasty, or small tummy tuck, that’s perfect for restoring firmness in the lower abdomen in both men and women.
Mini-tummy tucks are a simple solution that leaves you with a much smaller scar. This procedure removes excess skin and fat associated with weakness in the abdominal wall beneath your belly button.
As with all our procedures, our Sydney cosmetic plastic surgeon Dr Edinburg will work in close consultation with you to decide the best way to achieve the results you want.
If your loose skin and muscles are confined to your lower abdomen, a small tummy tuck is a simpler procedure with less surgery and a shorter recovery time. In addition, your belly button should not have to be repositioned, as may be the case with a full tummy tuck. Of course, Dr Edinburg will help you assess which type of surgery is appropriate for your body.
A tummy tuck usually takes around one to one and a half hours under general anaesthetic.
A small tummy tuck would normally require an overnight stay in hospital.
Recovery would normally take a few weeks, with a full return to physical activities in 6 weeks or so.
Cost will depend on the method and extent of surgery but may range from $ 6000.
Medicare and Health Funds have some rebates associated with this procedure.

It’s only natural to want to have the best body you can. Even when you exercise and eat well, you may feel there are certain parts of your body that never seem to change. If you’d like to improve the shape of your body, liposuction, lipotransfer or liposculpture involves the use of a small cannula (tube) for removal of fat deposits from one part of your body, allowing you to have curves where you want them, and not where you don’t!
As with all our procedures, Dr Edinburg will only advise liposuction if he feels this will be of significant benefit to you. He will take the time and care to ensure that your expectations and understanding are in line with proposed treatments.
Liposuction is suitable for your face, upper arms, breasts, abdomen, flanks, hips, thighs, knees, calves and ankles. In the event one of these procedures is appropriate for your needs, Dr Edinburg will tailor a highly individual cosmetic surgery solution to suit you, which may be combined with other procedures for optimum body contouring results. He may even use Lipotransfer to transfer fat cells to another site.
Our latest techniques can reshape your body, to give you the result you want while minimising trauma and recovery time.
Liposuction is best for those patients who are in good health and not obese but have localised areas of accumulated fat. It is also important that you have realistic expectations of what liposuction can and can’t achieve.
A liposuction procedure can take from one to three hours.
Depending on the procedure you require, liposuction may be done under local or general anaesthetic.
Again, it depends on your treatment, as liposuction can be performed at the Eden Institute (small procedures) or in hospital if necessary.
Recovery would normally take one to 3 weeks, depending on the extent of your procedure.
Liposuction, like many of the procedures offered by Dr Edinburg, is a highly individualised form of surgery. The best way to determine what will give you the best results is to have a consultation with Dr Edinburg, who will help you plan the most appropriate surgery for you.
Cost will depend on the method and extent of surgery but may range from $2000.
