The drainless tummy tuck in Clear Lake is the signature treatment of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Olivier Deigni. It can help you permanently eliminate belly fat while redefining your abdominal contours. This procedure is ideal when you wish to remove excess skin and fat in your abdominal area, and it is often a preferable choice than a standard tummy tuck.
With over a decade of experience performing drainless tummy tucks for patients, Dr. Oliver Deigni is one of the premier specialists in this highly specialized procedure.
The drainless tummy tuck procedure may be right for you when you desire a firmer, more sculpted abdomen. You could be a good candidate for this procedure when you:
The drainless tummy tuck is designed to help you achieve a flatter, smoother abdominal profile. It offers similar results to a traditional tummy tuck but with one important difference. With a drainless tummy tuck, you do not have to experience the inconvenience of post-operative drains. By eliminating the need for drains, you will be more comfortable during the recovery process.
The drainless tummy tuck is also less risky than a standard tummy tuck, with reduced risk of complications and the unpleasant side effects associated with using drains, such as infection, discomfort, lack of mobility, and increased chances of scarring. Our patients in Clear Lake can expect a smoother and more comfortable post-operative experience with the drainless tummy tuck. Best of all, the unique suturing method used by Dr. Deigni can reduce the risk of scarring, leading to a more aesthetic result.
During your personalized consultation at our office, Dr. Deigni will assess your candidacy for the drainless tummy tuck, considering factors such as skin laxity, fat distribution, and overall health. Dr. Deigni will also discuss your aesthetic goals and design a precision surgical plan to meet your specific needs.
The procedure itself will take place under anesthesia. Using advanced surgical techniques, Dr. Deigni will remove your excess skin and fat and tighten your abdominal muscles when necessary. Every effort will be taken to ensure that incisions are carefully concealed to minimize the appearance of scarring. Dr. Deigni may augment your drainless tummy tuck with strategic liposuction to help you achieve even better results.
To aid your recovery, you may be advised to wear compression garments to support your healing process and minimize swelling. Dr. Deigni will also schedule follow-up appointments as needed to monitor your progress and address any questions or concerns.
Ultimately, both procedures can result in a smooth, tighter, and more contoured abdomen. Both procedures surgically remove unwanted, excess fat deposits and loose abdominal skin. Combining either of these treatments with liposuction can yield even more dramatic results. However, there are some important differences between the standard tummy tuck and the drainless tummy tuck, which make the drainless version a superior alternative.
The main difference is the use of drainage tubes. During your recovery stage, a traditional tummy tuck uses drainage tubes extending from your incisions to prevent fluid accumulation and reduce swelling. However, the drains come with some unpleasant side effects, such as:
Dr. Deigni mitigates these concerns during a drainless tummy tuck in Clear Lake by using several layers of sutures to close incisions and secure the skin, fat, and muscles together to prevent fluid buildup.
