What is a Tummy Tuck?

Our experienced surgeons conduct a tummy tuck procedure that rejuvenates the abdominal area, creating a toned and flat appearance by removing excess skin and fat and repairing underlying muscle structures. We are committed to utilizing advanced and minimally invasive abdominoplasty techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.

Tummy Tuck Candidates

Individuals who are dissatisfied with excess fat and loose skin around the abdomen may be eligible for abdominal fat surgery. Despite maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise, some struggle to eliminate a flabby tummy.

A tummy tuck in Seattle can address the following concerns:

  • Excess, sagging skin that persists after substantial weight loss
  • Stretched, lax skin and stretch marks in the abdominal region post-pregnancy
  • Diminished natural skin elasticity, leading to stretched and sagging abdominal skin
  • Separated abdominal muscles resulting in a "double tummy" appearance
  • A protruding abdomen

How it Works

Our team of skilled experts, who specialize in body contouring techniques, stay abreast of the latest advancements and carefully choose the most suitable procedure based on your individual anatomy and desired outcomes. We tailor the anesthesia plan to your treatment, prioritizing your safety and comfort by utilizing our advanced surgical suites and rigorous safety protocols.

Traditional Tummy Tuck

During a conventional tummy tuck, the surgeon creates a horizontal incision on the lower abdomen. This incision is used to repair weakened abdominal muscles and eliminate surplus skin, ultimately leading to a more distinct waistline and a flatter look.

Mini Tummy Tuck

The mini tummy tuck, also known as partial abdominoplasty, is a minimally invasive procedure designed to target minor skin and muscle laxity in the lower abdomen. This approach entails a smaller incision and provides a quicker recovery compared to a full tummy tuck.

Drainless Tummy Tuck

The drainless abdominoplasty is an adapted form of the standard tummy tuck to eliminate the necessity for postoperative drainage tubes. This is accomplished through specialized sutures and techniques that reduce fluid buildup, potentially leading to a more comfortable recovery for the patient.

Extended Tummy Tuck

This advanced surgical technique integrates the conventional tummy tuck with additional contouring procedures. It tackles surplus skin and fat in the abdominal area, extending to the sides and lower back, offering comprehensive body sculpting for the patient.

Fleur-de-Lis Abdominoplasty

Those with substantial excess skin, especially following significant weight loss, may need a more extensive body contouring solution. The fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty is an advanced tummy tuck technique that employs both vertical and horizontal incisions to address excess skin more effectively.

360 Body Lift

The 360 body lift, also known as a circumferential abdominoplasty or lower body lift, is a procedure that addresses excess skin and fat not only in the front abdominal area but also in the sides and lower back. This comprehensive approach produces a more toned and contoured appearance across the entire midsection.

Your Tummy Tuck Recovery

Following a tummy tuck in Seattle, the recovery duration can differ depending on the technique employed. Adhering closely to the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon is essential. In the initial week, patients may encounter swelling and discomfort, which gradually diminishes. Although light activity can be resumed within a few weeks, it may take longer to engage in strenuous exercise. Complete recovery typically spans several months, with the maturation of scars continuing over time.

Smooth, Sculpted Results

Patients who undergo tummy tuck surgery frequently experience increased confidence and satisfaction with their bodies, noticing an immediate improvement in abdominal firmness and tone. While swelling may take time to diminish and scars to fade, the final results typically become more apparent after a few months. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to sustain improved abdominal contours.

Who is a good candidate for a tummy tuck in Seattle?

A tummy tuck in Seattle is ideal for individuals who are at or near their goal weight but struggle with excess abdominal skin, stubborn fat, or weakened muscles, often due to pregnancy or significant weight loss. Good candidates are in overall good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. During your consultation at Athēnix Body, our surgeons will assess your goals and recommend the best approach for your needs.

What is the difference between a full and mini tummy tuck?

A full tummy tuck addresses the entire abdominal area, removing excess skin and tightening muscles from the upper and lower abdomen. In contrast, a mini tummy tuck focuses only on the lower abdomen below the navel, making it suitable for patients with mild to moderate concerns. When considering a tummy tuck in Seattle, your surgeon will evaluate which option aligns with your body type and desired results.

How soon will I see results from my tummy tuck?

Initial results from your tummy tuck in Seattle will be noticeable once post-surgical swelling begins to subside, typically within a few weeks. However, it can take several months for swelling to fully resolve and for your final, contoured appearance to emerge. Patients enjoy long-lasting improvements, especially when maintaining a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle.
