Tummy Tuck

At Destination Beauty, we offer several types of tummy tuck surgery (abdominoplasty) to address different degrees of excess skin, stretched abdominal muscles, and body contour concerns following pregnancy, significant weight loss, or ageing.

• Standard Tummy Tuck (Full Abdominoplasty) is the most common procedure and is designed to remove excess skin and fat from the lower and middle abdomen while repairing separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti). This option is ideal for patients seeking a flatter, firmer abdominal profile.

• Extended Tummy Tuck removes excess skin and fat from both the abdomen and the flanks (love handles). This procedure is often recommended for patients who have experienced major weight loss and require more extensive body contouring than a standard tummy tuck can provide.

• Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck is specifically designed for patients with significant horizontal and vertical skin laxity, typically following massive weight loss. In addition to removing excess lower abdominal skin, this technique allows surgeons to tighten the waistline by removing excess skin from the central abdomen, creating a more dramatic body contour improvement.

• Semi-Circumferential Tummy Tuck extends beyond the abdomen and flanks to address excess skin around a larger portion of the waistline. This procedure is often recommended for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery or significant weight loss and require more comprehensive contouring than an extended tummy tuck, while not needing a full body lift.

• Circumferential Tummy Tuck (Lower Body Lift) is the most comprehensive option and addresses excess skin around the entire midsection, including the abdomen, flanks, lower back, and buttocks. This procedure is commonly performed after substantial weight loss and can significantly improve overall body shape, contour, and skin laxity around the lower torso.

The most suitable tummy tuck procedure depends on your anatomy, skin quality, weight-loss history, and aesthetic goals.
