Tummy Tuck Surgery
Achieve a flatter, firmer abdomen with a personalized tummy tuck by Dr. Ken Aluora, designed to tighten muscles and remove excess skin for a sculpted silhouette.
What is a Tummy Tuck?
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying muscles to create a smoother, more toned appearance. It is ideal for individuals with loose skin or weakened muscles due to pregnancy, significant weight loss, or aging. Dr. Ken Aluora tailors each tummy tuck to your unique needs, ensuring natural-looking results that enhance your confidence.
Benefits of a Tummy Tuck
- Flatter Abdomen: Remove excess skin and fat for a smoother, more contoured midsection.
- Tightened Muscles: Repair separated or weakened abdominal muscles for improved core strength.
- Enhanced Confidence: Feel more comfortable in your body with a rejuvenated appearance.
- Improved Posture: Strengthen core muscles to support better spinal alignment.
- Better Clothing Fit: Enjoy clothing that fits more comfortably and flatters your figure.
The Procedure
Dr. Ken Aluora uses advanced surgical techniques to ensure precision, safety, and minimal scarring. The tummy tuck procedure typically involves:
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia to ensure comfort during the surgery.
- Incisions: A horizontal incision typically placed low on the abdomen, often within the bikini line, to minimize visible scarring.
- Muscle Repair: Tightening of abdominal muscles to restore strength and firmness.
- Skin and Fat Removal: Removal of excess skin and fat to create a smooth contour.
- Closure: Sutures to close incisions, designed to promote optimal healing.
The procedure typically takes 2-4 hours, depending on the extent of correction needed, and is performed in accredited facilities in Nairobi or Kapsabet, Kenya.

Post-surgery, you may experience swelling, bruising, or discomfort, which typically subsides within a few weeks. Dr. Aluora provides comprehensive aftercare instructions, including:
- Wearing a compression garment to reduce swelling and support the abdomen.
- Avoiding strenuous activities and heavy lifting for 6-8 weeks.
- Attending follow-up appointments to monitor healing and ensure optimal results.
