Tummy Tuck & Body Contouring

Also known as abdominoplasty, the procedure allows patients to sculpt their midsection for a flatter and more toned appearance.

Quick Facts

Quick Info

  • A tummy tuck is a 2-hour procedure performed in our operating room under general anesthesia.
  • The recovery process is about 2 weeks where you should not go to work and stay home. After that you should not lift anything heavy or go to the gym for 4-6 weeks.
  • During the tummy tuck, the loose skin on your abdomen is removed, and your muscles are tightened on the inside to give you the flattest look possible.
  • Although you will see good results in a month, final results take a year or longer.
  • The incision is hidden as low as we can make it, usually under your bikini line. Usually it is hip to hip, but can sometimes be made shorter. All sutures are under the skin and absorbable to minimize scarring.

Tummy Tuck & Body Contouring

Tummy Tuck and Body Contouring: Achieve a Toned, Sculpted Waistline and a Flat Tummy!

Excess sagging skin and stubborn fat around the abdomen can significantly impact confidence, whether due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging. A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) provides a transformative solution by sculpting the midsection for a flatter, more toned appearance. At Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics, we combine advanced tummy tuck techniques with Body Contouring options like Liposuction 360 to create stunning, natural-looking results. Let us help you achieve the sleek, defined waistline you’ve always desired.

Tummy Tuck: Reclaim Your Body, Reclaim Your Confidence

A tummy tuck focuses on removing excess skin and fat from the abdominal area while tightening weakened or separated muscles. This procedure is ideal for individuals who:

  • Have loose, sagging skin due to weight loss or pregnancy.
  • Struggle with weakened abdominal muscles that cannot be addressed through exercise.
  • Desire a slimmer, more toned midsection.

Our skilled board certified surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure minimal scarring and optimal results, leaving you with a flatter stomach and enhanced confidence.

Before Your Tummy Tuck Surgery

The first step is scheduling a consultation with our experienced surgeons. During this visit, we:

  • Assess your medical history and overall health.
  • Determine if you’re a good candidate for a tummy tuck.
  • Discuss your goals and set realistic expectations for the outcome.

Ideal candidates for a tummy tuck are adults who:

  • Are at or near their ideal weight.
  • Are finished having children.
  • Have tried diet and exercise without success in toning the abdomen.

Our surgeons will outline the benefits, risks, and preparation steps to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.

The Tummy Tuck Procedure

During surgery, our surgeons:

  1. Place incisions strategically to minimize visible scarring.
  2. Remove excess skin and fat in the abdominal area.
  3. Tighten weakened abdominal muscles for a firmer core.
  4. Reposition the belly button if necessary to complement your new shape.

To refine your results, we often incorporate liposuction to contour the waist and hips, ensuring a smooth, natural appearance.

Body Contouring with Liposuction 360: Enhance Your Tummy Tuck

For a truly sculpted and hourglass figure, we offer Liposuction 360 as part of our body contouring services. This advanced technique targets stubborn fat all the way around the trunk, including:

  • Abdomen
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Back

By addressing fat deposits from every angle, Liposuction 360 creates a smaller, more defined waistline. When combined with a tummy tuck, the results are transformative, offering a toned, contoured appearance that enhances your overall silhouette.

Preparing for Your Tummy Tuck and Body Contouring

Preparation is key to a successful surgery and recovery. We recommend that patients:

  • Maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine to support healing.
  • Lose weight prior to the procedure
  • Stop smoking and avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin.
  • Follow all pre-surgical instructions provided by our team.

These steps help ensure your body is in the best possible condition for surgery and recovery.

Recovery and Results

After your tummy tuck and body contouring procedure:

  • Initial Recovery: Most patients experience swelling and mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications. Rest is essential during the first few days.
  • Compression Garments: Wearing a compression garment helps minimize swelling and support the healing process.
  • Return to Activity: Light walking is encouraged within a few days to promote circulation, while most patients can return to work in 2-4 weeks. Strenuous activities should be avoided for 6-8 weeks.
  • Long-Term Results: Swelling will continue to subside over several weeks, with final results visible in 3-6 months. The outcome is a toned, sculpted waistline and improved self-confidence.
