Ballwin & St. Louis Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck
Reshape
Your Body
Transform your body with a Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck at Willis Cosmetic Surgery. Dr. Zachary Willis offers this specialized procedure for significant abdominal reshaping.
Ideal for those who have experienced massive weight loss and are left with substantial excess skin, the Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck gives you a flatter abdomen and a dramatically improved overall silhouette.
What Is Fleur-De-Lis Abdominoplasty?
A Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck, or vertical abdominoplasty, is an advanced version of the traditional tummy tuck that addresses significant excess skin in both the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the abdomen.
This procedure is particularly suited for patients who have undergone massive weight loss and have extensive skin laxity that cannot be adequately treated with a standard procedure alone.
During a Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck, Dr. Zachary Willis makes a traditional horizontal incision across the lower abdomen and a vertical incision from the lower breastbone to the pubic area. This method allows for the removal of excess skin and fat, tightening of the abdominal muscles, and comprehensive reshaping that enhances the entire abdominal area.
The result is a more dramatic contouring effect that enhances the midsection's profile and overall aesthetics.
Why Fleur-De-Lis Abdominoplasty at Willis Cosmetic Surgery?
A Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck at Willis Cosmetic Surgery is particularly beneficial for individuals who require more extensive correction than a traditional tummy tuck can offer. This procedure is ideal for those with significant excess skin in the midsection, often resulting from major weight loss, bariatric surgery, or natural changes post-pregnancy.
Unlike the standard tummy tuck that primarily addresses excess skin below the belly button, the Fleur-De-Lis technique also removes excess skin vertically, providing a more comprehensive tightening effect.
The Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck enhances the contouring of the entire abdominal area, making it a superior choice for a dramatic transformation. This procedure can better align the abdominal aesthetics with the rest of the body’s proportions, offering not just a flatter stomach but an overall more sculpted torso.
It's particularly effective for those who feel that their excess skin hinders physical activity or affects their posture. Choosing this advanced procedure ensures that you receive a tailored surgical approach that addresses your unique challenges and goals.
What Results to Expect With
Fleur-De-Lis Abdominoplasty
A Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck with Dr. Willis can dramatically change your body contour and significantly improve your quality of life. Here are the results you can typically expect from the procedure:
- Enhanced abdominal contour: The most notable result is a much flatter and firmer abdominal area. The dual incisions allow for the removal of substantial excess skin both horizontally and vertically, tightening the abdomen and significantly reducing any overhanging skin.
- Improved body proportions: By addressing excess skin and fat around the middle of the body, this procedure helps to create a more balanced and proportionate figure. Patients often find that clothes fit better and they feel more comfortable in a wider variety of styles.
- Reduced discomfort: Excess abdominal skin can cause physical discomfort and skin irritation, including chafing and rashes. Removal of this skin can alleviate these symptoms and increase mobility, making daily activities and exercise more comfortable.
- Boosted self-confidence: Beyond the physical improvements, patients often experience a significant boost in self-esteem and body image. This psychological benefit is a key factor in why many choose to undergo this transformative surgery.
