Explore the Best Tummy Tuck Option for You

At Dr. Stan Plastic Surgery, we offer a range of tummy tuck procedures in Pasadena, TX to suit different needs. Whether you’re looking to tighten your midsection, smooth a stubborn belly bulge, or redefine your waistline after major weight loss, we have the right procedure for you.

Full Tummy Tuck

Dr. Stan offers several tummy tuck options to align with your aesthetic goals and unique body shape.

Mini Tummy Tuck

If your main concern is a lower belly pooch that won’t go away with diet or exercise, a mini tummy tuck may be the solution. This less invasive procedure targets the area below the belly button, removing excess skin and tightening muscles without the need for an extensive incision.

Extended Tummy Tuck

For patients who have undergone massive weight loss or struggle with excess skin beyond the abdomen, an extended tummy tuck removes loose skin and fat from the abdomen, flanks, and lower back. This procedure dramatically reshapes the midsection, creating a more defined waistline.

Drainless Tummy Tuck

A drainless tummy tuck offers all the benefits of a traditional tummy tuck without the inconvenience of post-surgical drains. Dr. Stan uses an advanced suturing technique to minimize fluid buildup, ensuring a more comfortable recovery with less maintenance and downtime.

Understanding the Tummy Tuck Process


A tummy tuck tightens loose skin, removes excess fat, and repairs weakened abdominal muscles to sculpt a firmer, more contoured midsection. Dr. Stan makes a low incision along the bikini line to minimize visible scarring. He tightens the abdominal muscles, removes stretched skin, and, if necessary, repositions the belly button for a natural, proportional look.

To achieve the best results, Dr. Stan may also use liposuction to further refine your waistline, leaving you with a beautifully sculpted silhouette.

What to Expect During Your Tummy Tuck Journey

A tummy tuck procedure typically lasts 2 to 4 hours, during which Dr. Stan removes excess skin, tightens abdominal muscles, and contours the waistline for a more sculpted look. Here’s what you can expect after your procedure:

  • Recovery time: Most patients return to light activities within 2 to 4 weeks, while full recovery takes 6 to 8 weeks. You’ll experience some swelling and tightness during this period, which will gradually subside over time.

  • Compression garment: You’ll wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and support your new abdominal contours.

  • Follow-up care: Our team will guide you through every step of the recovery process to help you achieve the best possible results.

Answers to Common Tummy Tuck Questions

How Long Does Tummy Tuck Recovery Take?

Recovery from a tummy tuck takes approximately 6 to 8 weeks. Most patients return to light activities within 2 to 4 weeks, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least 6 weeks. Wearing a compression garment as directed by Dr. Stan will help with the healing process and ensure the best results.

Can a Tummy Tuck Replace Weight Loss?

No, a tummy tuck is not a weight loss procedure — it removes excess skin and tightens the abdominal muscles. The best candidates for a tummy tuck are already at or near their ideal weight but struggle with loose skin and muscle separation that diet and exercise cannot fix.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?

Good candidates for a tummy tuck in Pasadena:

-Have loose or excess skin on their abdomen that doesn’t improve with diet and exercise.

-Have weakened or separated abdominal muscles due to pregnancy, aging, or major weight loss.

-Are at a stable, healthy weight and do not plan to lose significant weight post-surgery.

-Are finished having children (future pregnancies can impact results).

-Are in good general health, without conditions that may interfere with healing.

You may NOT be a good candidate for a tummy tuck if you:

-Are significantly overweight or looking for a weight-loss solution.

-Have uncontrolled medical conditions that could affect healing.

-Plan to become pregnant in the future
