What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck is a cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the appearance of your abdominal area. Our skilled surgeons specialize in removing excess skin and fat while addressing the underlying muscle structure, leading to a flat and toned look. Our dedication to using the latest and least invasive abdominoplasty techniques ensures the best possible outcome for our valued patients.

What Does a Tummy Tuck Address?

Despite diet and exercise, some people find it challenging to address a flabby tummy area fully. If you're unhappy with excess skin and stubborn fat in your tummy area, you might be a candidate for an abdominoplasty in Los Angeles

A tummy tuck can effectively address the following:

  • Loose, sagging skin after significant weight loss
  • Stretched and loose skin with stretch marks after pregnancy
  • Loss of natural skin elasticity causing stretched and sagging tummy skin
  • Separated abdominal muscles resulting in a "double tummy" appearance
  • A protruding belly

How a Tummy Tuck Works

Our team of body contouring specialists stays current on the latest advancements to ensure we choose the most suitable method for your unique anatomy and desired outcomes. Your tummy tuck in Pasadena includes personalized anesthesia to prioritize your comfort and safety in our advanced surgical suites, following strict safety protocols.

Traditional Tummy Tuck

This process involves making a horizontal incision on the lower abdomen, repairing weakened abdominal muscles, and removing excess skin to achieve a well-defined waistline and a more streamlined appearance.

Mini Tummy Tuck

The mini tummy tuck, also known as partial abdominoplasty, is a less invasive procedure intended for minor skin and muscle laxity in the lower abdomen. It involves a smaller incision and offers a shorter recovery period.

Drainless Tummy Tuck

This modified version of the traditional tummy tuck is designed to eliminate the need for post-operative drainage tubes by using specialized sutures and techniques, potentially leading to a more comfortable recovery.

Extended Tummy Tuck

By combining the traditional tummy tuck with other contouring procedures, this technique targets excess skin and fat in the abdominal region, extending to the sides and lower back, offering comprehensive body sculpting.

Fleur-de-Lis Abdominoplasty

For people with significant excess skin, especially after major weight loss, this advanced technique uses both vertical and horizontal incisions to address the excess skin more effectively.

360 Body Lift

Referred to as circumferential abdominoplasty or lower body lift, this procedure addresses excess skin and fat not only in the front abdominal area but also in the sides and lower back, leading to a more toned and contoured midsection.

Abdominoplasty Recovery

Recovery after a tummy tuck in Los Angeles can vary depending on the chosen technique. It's important to follow your surgeon's post-operative instructions carefully. While patients typically experience swelling and discomfort during the first week, gradual improvement follows. Light activity can be resumed within a few weeks, but strenuous exercise may take longer. Full recovery usually takes several months, with scar maturation progressing over time.

Toned, Smooth, Flawless

People who have tummy tuck surgery often feel more confident and satisfied with their bodies, noticing a firmer and toned abdomen soon after the procedure. As the swelling goes down and scars fade, the final results become more visible after a few months. Maintaining improved abdominal contours requires a healthy lifestyle.
