Tummy Tuck Beverly Hills

Achieve a flatter, firm midsection with a tummy tuck in Beverly Hills. Dr. Firouz expertly removes excess skin and fat while tightening abdominal muscles, restoring the sculpted contour lost after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging. Regain your confidence today.

Reclaim Your Stomach & Waist

Sometimes, dedicated dieting and exercising are simply not enough to fully restore the desired definition and shape of your midsection. When persistent loose skin or separated abdominal muscles stand in the way of your ideal waistline, consider a tummy tuck. During this transformative surgery, Dr. Firouz expertly removes excess skin and stubborn fatty deposits while simultaneously repositioning the abdominal muscles into a tighter, firmer formation, resulting in a beautifully flatter and tighter abdomen.

What Is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat and skin while tightening the underlying muscles to reshape and contour the abdomen. This procedure is especially helpful for those who have experienced significant weight changes, pregnancy, or aging, which can lead to loose skin and weakened abdominal muscles. Unlike liposuction, which only targets fat, a tummy tuck addresses the skin, fat, and muscle layers to restore a firmer, more sculpted midsection.

While not a weight-loss solution, a tummy tuck can offer transformative results for those struggling with abdominal laxity that cannot be fixed by diet and exercise alone. It enhances body contours, tightens muscles, and removes excess tissue, giving a smoother, more toned appearance. Dr. Firouz customizes each tummy tuck to your unique needs, ensuring natural, beautiful results.

Tummy Tuck vs. Liposuction: Which Is Right for You?

The answer comes down to what's actually causing your concern:

Choose a tummy tuck if you have loose or sagging skin, separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), or both — liposuction can't tighten skin or repair muscle.
Choose liposuction if your skin has good elasticity and your main concern is stubborn, isolated fat rather than excess skin.

Combine both if you want comprehensive contouring — many patients pair a tummy tuck with liposuction to refine the waist, hips, or flanks simultaneously.

During your consultation, Dr. Firouz will assess your skin quality, muscle tone, and goals to recommend the approach that will give you the most natural, long-lasting result.

Tummy Tuck Benefits

A tummy tuck with Dr. Firouz goes beyond simple fat removal to provide comprehensive body contouring. As a premier provider of abdominoplasty in Beverly Hills, Dr. Firouz addresses the skin, fat, and muscle layers simultaneously so patients can experience several life-changing benefits:

Restored Core Strength: Dr. Firouz repairs and tightens abdominal muscles that have been weakened or separated (diastasis recti), providing a firmer internal foundation.
Elimination of Excess Skin: The procedure removes sagging, loose skin caused by pregnancy or significant weight loss that cannot be addressed through exercise alone.
A Flatter, Toned Profile: By removing stubborn fat deposits and smoothing the remaining skin, you can achieve a more sculpted waistline and a flatter midsection.
Improved Posture and Comfort: Tightening the abdominal wall often leads to improved posture and can alleviate back pain or skin irritation caused by excess tissue.
Permanent Results: While your body will continue to age naturally, the removal of skin and repair of muscles are permanent, provided you maintain a stable weight.
Enhanced Confidence: Patients often report a significant boost in self-esteem, feeling more comfortable in form-fitting clothing and swimwear.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?

A Beverly Hills tummy tuck is ideal for patients looking to restore a firm, flat midsection. You may be a good candidate if you meet the following criteria:

Excess Skin: You have loose or sagging abdominal skin from pregnancy, aging, or weight loss.
Muscle Weakness: You have "diastasis recti" (separated muscles) that diet and exercise cannot fix.
Stable Weight: You are at or near your goal weight and have maintained it for several months.
Good Health: You are a healthy non-smoker with no medical conditions that hinder healing.
Post-Childbearing: You have completed your family, as future pregnancies can alter surgical results.

How a Tummy Tuck Is Performed: Step by Step

When you undergo a tummy tuck with Dr. Firouz, the procedure follows a precise, multi-step process tailored to your body and goals:

Anesthesia: Dr. Firouz will administer general anesthesia or sedation to keep you comfortable and safe throughout surgery.
Incision and muscle repair: An incision is made just above the pubic bone, typically extending horizontally across the lower abdomen (and, if needed, around the navel). Through this opening, Dr. Firouz repositions and tightens the underlying abdominal muscles.
Skin trimming and contouring: Excess skin and fatty tissue are trimmed away, and the remaining skin is redraped over your new, firmer contour.
Drains and closure: Dr. Firouz closes the incisions and places drainage tubes to help remove excess fluid and support your recovery. The entire surgery typically takes between one and five hours, depending on your body and the extent of correction needed.

Tummy Tuck Recovery Timeline: Week by Week

Recovery from a tummy tuck unfolds gradually. Here's what most patients can expect:

Week 1: Rest is the priority. Swelling, tightness, and some pain are normal, and prescription medication helps keep you comfortable. Most patients wear a compression garment continuously during this stage.
Weeks 2–3: Many patients return to light daily activities and desk work. Swelling and discomfort continue to ease.
Weeks 4–6: You'll typically finish out your compression-garment period during this stretch, and your new contour becomes easier to see as swelling fades further.
Months 3–12: Final results emerge gradually as any remaining swelling resolves and your tissue fully settles into its new shape — it can take up to a year to see the complete outcome.

What Credentials Should Your Beverly Hills Tummy Tuck Surgeon Have?

Choosing the right surgeon matters as much as choosing the right procedure. Before booking a tummy tuck, it's worth confirming:

Board certification: Look for certification from the American Board of Plastic Surgery, which requires a minimum of six years of surgical training after medical school, including at least three years specifically in plastic surgery.
Hospital privileges: A surgeon with hospital privileges to perform your procedure has been vetted by an independent medical staff — a meaningful safety signal.

An accredited facility: Surgery should take place in a nationally or state-accredited surgical facility, not an unaccredited office setting.
Before-and-after photos: Ask to see outcomes from patients with a similar build or concern to yours.

I recently had a tummy tuck after losing over 100 pounds by Dr. Firouz, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From my first consultation through every step of post-op care, Dr. Firouz and his team made me feel informed, supported, and confident. The results exceeded my expectations and my stomach is flatter, tighter, and more sculpted than I ever imagined possible. The precision and attention to detail truly shows in my results. Recovery was manageable, and any concerns I had were addressed promptly with kindness and care. I am so grateful for this transformation and highly recommend Dr. Firouz to anyone considering a tummy tuck or body contouring procedure. He’s the best!!

A year ago, I looked for a good plastic surgeon to do breast reduction and tummy tuck. I interviewed many doctors in OC and L.A., but when I met Dr. Firouz, I knew that I found the doctor I was looking for. He is honest, very knowledgeable, and, most importantly excellent in what he does. I am so happy with my results, and I got so many compliments from my friends and family. He is the only plastic surgeon in southern California that I trust with my body. Since then he is doing my botox and fillers, and I honestly can say I can't be happier with the result. I am so grateful for what he did for me since I've seen so many of my friends butchered by other doctors.

Tummy Tuck FAQs

Where will my tummy tuck scar be located?

Dr. Firouz typically places the horizontal incision very low on the abdomen, just above the pubic area. This placement is strategically chosen so that the resulting scar can be easily hidden beneath most underwear and bikini bottoms.

Will a tummy tuck get rid of my stretch marks?

A tummy tuck can effectively remove stretch marks located on the lower abdomen (below the belly button) because that skin is physically excised during the procedure. Stretch marks on the upper abdomen may remain, but they are often pulled lower and become less noticeable.

Can I get a tummy tuck if I’ve had a previous C-section?

Yes. In many cases, Dr. Firouz can incorporate your existing C-section scar into the new tummy tuck incision. The procedure can also address 'C-section shelving,' where skin hangs over the old surgical scar.

How long do I need to wear the compression garment?

Most patients wear a medical-grade compression garment or abdominal binder for about 4 to 6 weeks. This helps minimize swelling, supports the newly tightened muscles, and helps the skin conform to your new body contours.

Does a tummy tuck affect future pregnancies?

While a tummy tuck does not affect your ability to have a healthy pregnancy, it is generally recommended to wait until you are finished having children. A future pregnancy can stretch the repaired muscles and skin, potentially compromising your surgical results.

Can you combine my Beverly Hills abdominoplasty with other procedures?

Yes. Dr. Firouz frequently combines abdominoplasty with liposuction, breast augmentation, or a breast lift to achieve comprehensive results. This approach, often called a 'Mommy Makeover,' allows you to address multiple areas of concern during a single surgery and recovery period.

How long-lasting is a tummy tuck?

With proper diet and exercise, the incredible results of your tummy tuck should be very long-lasting.

What Else Pairs With a Tummy Tuck? BBL and Skinny BBL Add-Ons

Tummy tuck patients often want to enhance more than just their midsection. In addition to liposuction, breast augmentation, and breast lift, Dr. Firouz frequently combines abdominoplasty with Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) (where fat removed during your tummy tuck or liposuction is transferred to the buttocks for added volume and curve) or a Skinny BBL (a more subtle version for patients who want gentle curve enhancement without significant added volume). Combining procedures in one surgery can mean a single recovery period instead of several, letting Dr. Firouz create balanced, proportional results across multiple areas at once.
