What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, or stomach fat surgery, is your pathway to a transformed abdominal area. Our board-certified surgeons skillfully eliminate excess skin and fat while restoring the underlying muscle structure, resulting in a flat and toned look. At Athēnix in Marina Del Rey, we are dedicated to using the latest and least invasive techniques, ensuring an exceptional outcome for our patients.

Is a Tummy Tuck for You?

If you grapple with loose skin and stubborn tummy fat, you might be an ideal candidate for a tummy tuck in Marina Del Rey. 

Even with a healthy lifestyle, specific concerns are challenging to address:

  • Persistent sagging skin following significant weight loss
  • Stretched, loose skin and stretch marks post-pregnancy
  • Loss of skin elasticity leading to sagging and stretching
  • Separated abdominal muscles causing an unwanted "double tummy"
  • A protruding belly

How it Works

Our team of body contouring experts stays updated with the latest advancements, ensuring they select the most appropriate method for your unique needs and goals. The anesthesia administered during your procedure is tailored to your specific treatment, focusing on your comfort and safety within our state-of-the-art surgical suites and stringent safety protocols.

Traditional tummy tuck

This procedure involves a horizontal incision on the lower abdomen. Weak abdominal muscles are repaired, and excess skin is removed, resulting in a defined waistline and a flatter profile.

Mini tummy tuck

Also known as partial abdominoplasty, this less invasive procedure targets minor skin and muscle laxity in the lower abdomen. It uses a smaller incision and boasts a shorter recovery period compared to a full tummy tuck.

Drainless tummy tuck

A modified version of the traditional procedure, the drainless tummy tuck aims to eliminate post-operative drainage tubes. Special sutures and techniques minimize fluid accumulation for a potentially more comfortable recovery.

Extended tummy tuck

This advanced surgical approach combines the traditional tummy tuck with other contouring procedures. It addresses excess skin and fat not only in the abdominal region but also in the sides and lower back, providing comprehensive body sculpting.

Fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty

Ideal for individuals with significant excess skin, particularly after substantial weight loss, this technique uses both vertical and horizontal incisions to address excess skin more effectively.

360 body lift

Also known as circumferential abdominoplasty, this procedure focuses on excess skin and fat not only in the front abdominal area but also in the sides and lower back, delivering a toned and contoured look throughout the midsection.

Your Recovery Process

Recovery times after a tummy tuck can vary depending on the technique employed. It is vital to follow the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon closely. Patients can expect some swelling and discomfort during the initial week that gradually improve over time. Light activities can typically be resumed within a few weeks, though it may take longer to engage in strenuous exercise. Complete recovery usually takes several months, with scars continuing to mature.

Lasting, Sculpted Results

Patients who undergo tummy tuck surgery often experience a renewed sense of confidence and body satisfaction, enjoying immediate results with a firmer and more toned abdomen. While some swelling may persist and scars may initially be visible, they will fade over time, becoming less noticeable. The full results may take several months to develop fully, but most patients notice a significant improvement in their abdomen's appearance within weeks of the procedure.
