Farah Khan's Tummy Tuck Truth After Triplets

Filmmaker Farah Khan recently shared that she underwent a tummy tuck surgery years after giving birth to triplets. She explained that excess skin made the procedure necessary.

Dr. Prashant Yadav, a cosmetic surgeon, publicly supported Khan's honesty, stating that surgical correction can be a form of self-care after multiple pregnancies. He noted that extreme skin stretching from carrying triplets often cannot be reversed by diet or exercise alone.

Gynecologist Dr. Richa Bharadwaj elaborated that while pregnancy stretches skin and muscles, loose skin often remains even after reaching a stable weight. She clarified that a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is a body-contouring procedure to remove excess skin and tighten muscles, distinct from weight-loss surgery or liposuction.

Dr. Bharadwaj also distinguished between normal postpartum changes and conditions like diastasis recti. She advised women to allow ample recovery time, focus on diet, and try physiotherapy before considering surgery, which is typically a last resort for persistent issues affecting comfort or quality of life.
