Comprehensive Tummy Tuck Solutions in Louisville and Lexington

A firm, flatter abdominal area looks attractive in fitted clothing and swimsuits. After pregnancy or significant weight loss, many adults struggle with a tummy bulge and stretched, wrinkled abdominal skin. CaloAesthetics offers an effective solution: tummy tuck surgery in Lexington and Louisville, KY.

Tummy Tuck Procedure Improvements

Dr. Calobrace and Dr. Quintero perform tummy tuck procedures to help patients achieve their aesthetic goals by:

• Smoothing and tightening loose skin
• Contouring the waist
• Repairing stretched and separated abdominal muscles
• Reshaping the bellybutton

Surgical Technique Overview

Tummy tuck surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and can last between 2 and 4 hours. The procedure involves making a strategic horizontal incision across the lower abdomen, through which surgeons can tighten muscles, remove excess skin, and reshape the abdominal area.

Innovative Drainless Tummy Tuck Option

CaloAesthetics offers a modern "drainless tummy tuck" technique involving internal suturing that secures abdominal skin and tissues along the abdominal wall. This advanced method eliminates the need for surgical drains, reducing patient discomfort and inconvenience.

Cost Considerations in Louisville

Tummy tuck prices at CaloAesthetics vary based on complexity:

• Mini tummy tuck: $8,000 to $10,000
• Standard tummy tuck: $9,000 to $13,000
• Extended tummy tuck: $13,000 to $15,000

Who is a Good Candidate?

Ideal tummy tuck candidates are individuals at or near healthy body weight who are bothered by excess abdominal skin, stretched muscles, or disproportionate body contours. The procedure is not a weight loss solution but a body contouring technique.

Recovery and Results

Patients typically return to work within 2 weeks, with full recovery taking 4-6 weeks. Results are long-lasting when maintained through a healthy lifestyle, including consistent exercise and mindful nutrition.
