Cosmetic surgery has risen in popularity and renown over the years. With the stigma around plastic surgery slowly fading from public opinion, more people are speaking out about the benefits of bettering yourself through cosmetic procedures. However, when it comes to cosmetic surgery, most people associate the topic with women. But more men are opting to undergo different methods, all of which benefit their lives.

When it comes to a male tummy tuck, it’s okay to have some confusion about what it entails. A male tummy tuck isn’t something to scoff at; instead, it’s an incredible procedure that creates shape and definition in the abdominal region. At Allure Esthetic, Dr. Javad Sajan is the leading male tummy tuck surgeon in Washington.

What Is A Male Tummy Tuck?

A male tummy tuck has two primary goals: to eliminate excess skin and minimize stubborn pockets of fat across the abdomen. Now, you may be thinking that a gym and a healthy diet produce the same results, but you’d be wrong. (Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.) While weight loss and a healthy lifestyle are amazing choices that produce great results, it doesn’t get rid of loose skin or stubborn areas of fat in the stomach, waist, or back.

When exercise and eating right don’t give you the results you started out to achieve, a male tummy tuck may be the perfect solution to finalize your new shape and definition. (Basically, it can give you that perfect abdominal outline and highlight your weight loss.)

Male Vs. Female Tummy Tuck

While both female and male abdominoplasty share the same goals, they differ in incision type, methods, and techniques in order to fit varying body types. The primary difference lies in the incision, as a female tummy tuck typically has curved incisions to fit their curvy shape, while a man’s has flat incisions that suit theirs.

Additionally, both surgeries can include liposuction in order to diminish pockets of fat, but a men tummy tuck may use liposuction around the abdomen to provide better definition and sculpted muscles.

Why Get A Male Abdominoplasty?

Whether you want to undergo cosmetic surgery is entirely up to you. We aren’t here to sell you on surgery but rather to highlight the benefits and information about the entire process. An abdominoplasty for men in Washington can provide benefits such as:

  • A well-defined abdomen

Are There Risks?

There are risks with any surgery, even ones that are considered safe and low risk. While a male tummy tuck is one of those low-risk surgeries, there are still risk factors you should be aware of before you make a decision. Staying informed is the best way to feel comfortable with any major decision or change you want to make. Risks of a male abdominoplasty include:

  • Poor healing or scarring
  • Infection or skin necrosis
  • Nerve damage
  • Bleeding or blood clots
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Adverse reaction to the anesthesia

When you have a consultation with an experienced provider, they can explain the risks and all of the steps they take to reduce them.

Types Of Male Tummy Tuck Methods

There are many types of male abdominoplasty procedures that all provide varying degrees of skin and fat removal. The best one for you lies in your overall goals as well as the amount of excess skin and fat around your stomach. Let’s look at the different tummy tuck options and their benefits so you can have a good idea of which one is right for you. Male abdominoplasty types include:

  • Mini Male Tummy Tuck: A mini male tummy tuck only eliminates a small amount of skin and fat from the lower abdomen.
  • Standard Male Tummy Tuck: A standard male tummy tuck eliminates more skin and fat from the lower and mid-section of the abdominal muscles. It can be combined with liposuction and is the most common type of tummy tuck.
  • Extended Male Tummy Tuck: An extended tummy tuck removes a considerable amount of skin and fat from the abdomen, hips, waist, and lower back. It’s mainly used on patients who have a significant amount of sagging skin after weight loss.
  • Fleur-de-lis Male Tummy Tuck: A fleur-de-lis tummy tuck is the most in-depth skin and fat removal surgery. It uses two scars: one that sits vertically down the abdomen and one that sits horizontally across the lower waistline. It removes large amounts of skin and fat from the entire abdomen, back, hips, and waist. It’s used for those who have experienced extreme weight loss.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Is A Male Tummy Tuck Worth It?

Whether or not a male tummy tuck is worth it is entirely up to you. If you are struggling with loose skin around the abdomen and find that exercise won’t eliminate it, a male tummy tuck may be the ideal solution. Talking with an experienced provider is the best way to determine if this surgery is the route you should take.

What Is The Recovery Time For A Male Tummy Tuck?

Your tummy tuck recovery depends on the type of surgery performed. A mini tummy tummy tuck isn’t going to include as much recovery time as an extended or fleur-de-lis tummy tummy tuck. Your provider can help walk you through the instructions and process during a consultation.

How Much Does A Tummy Tuck Cost In Washington?

The cost of a male tummy tuck in Washington depends on the provider you choose and the kind of tummy tuck you undergo. At Allure Esthetic, a standard tummy tuck starts at $10,950 but fluctuates from there. It can increase if you undergo a more in-depth process; it’s going to cost more. Dr. Sajan can talk to you about pricing during a consultation.
