What Is the Cost of Abdominoplasty in India?
The cost of Abdominoplasty in India typically ranges from $500 to $6,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.
Abdominoplasty is the medical name for a tummy tuck. This page focuses on its reconstructive uses: repairing separated abdominal muscles and removing overhanging skin. The cost depends on:
- Muscle (rectus) repair: for diastasis after pregnancy.
- Extent of skin removal: standard, extended, or a circumferential lower body lift.
- Hernia repair: if an umbilical or incisional hernia is fixed at the same time.
- Hospital stay: a few nights, according to the NHS.
Abdominoplasty, Panniculectomy and Lower Body Lift
- Abdominoplasty: removes skin and fat and tightens the muscle wall.
- Panniculectomy (apronectomy): removes only the hanging apron of skin without muscle tightening. BAPRAS describes it as largely functional.
- Lower body lift: removes skin around the whole waist after major weight loss.
See the tummy tuck page for full vs mini options and the body contouring page for surgery after major weight loss.

Diastasis Recti and Hernias
During pregnancy the two vertical abdominal muscles can separate. If the gap persists and causes a bulge or discomfort despite physiotherapy, abdominoplasty can stitch the muscles back together. Small umbilical hernias can often be repaired at the same operation. Tell your surgeon about any bulge or previous hernia.
Safety and Recovery
- Operation: 2–5 hours under general anaesthesia (NHS).
- Recovery: about 6 weeks, with a compression garment.
- Clot risk: about 0.2% for abdominoplasty in the CosmetAssure database (ASPS 2015), and higher when combined with other procedures.
- Wound problems: smokers and people with diabetes have higher risk of slow healing.
