Many people think tummy tucks are only for women, but we actually have a lot of men who want this surgery at Beber Surgery. Like women, guys worry about their stomach for many of the same reasons. For example, they worry about loose skin after weight loss, fat deposits that won’t go away with exercise and a belly that sticks out and makes them feel self conscious. A tummy tuck for men can help with these issues and give many of our male patients the firmer, more athletic looking abdomen they want. Breast revision surgery refines or corrects the results of previous procedures for improved symmetry and satisfaction. Each treatment is tailored to meet the patient’s evolving goals and expectations. The goal is to achieve beautiful, natural-looking results that align with the patient’s current aesthetic vision.
The biggest difference between a tummy tuck for men and one for women is the aesthetic goals. Most guys want their stomachs to be flatter and more muscular with a straighter, more angular shape. Many women like a softer, more curved waistline. When we plan surgery we take these different aesthetic goals into account and make sure the results look natural and masculine for our male patients.
Regardless of gender, the technique is basically the same. We cut across the lower belly, remove excess skin and fat and tighten the muscles underneath the abdomen. For men the cut is usually made along the natural crease where the lower abdomen meets the pubic area, like where a belt would sit. This way underwear or swim trunks can hide the scar. Men want a strong, defined core and tightening the muscles is a big part of getting there.Many of our male patients at our Toronto office have lost a lot of weight and now have loose, sagging skin around their stomach. This extra skin is annoying because it stays loose and hides all their hard work no matter how much they work out or how fit they get. A tummy tuck removes that excess skin and allows the underlying muscular definition to show through. Others come to us because they’ve developed what’s sometimes called a “dad bod” over the years with excess fat and loose skin around their middle that diet and exercise haven’t been able to fix.
Men often get liposuction plus a tummy tuck at the same time to get rid of fat that won’t go away on its own in the love handles or flanks. This combo approach helps to make the change more comprehensive and can improve the overall shape of the torso. Even though this isn’t officially a “Mommy Makeover” it’s a similar idea of solving several problems in one procedure to get better results. A breast lift rejuvenates the appearance of the chest by restoring firmness and youthful positioning. This procedure corrects sagging caused by aging, weight changes, or pregnancy. The result is a more elevated, natural contour that enhances both comfort and self-assurance.
Men and women both heal the same way after a belly tuck. You’ll need to take at least two weeks off work and stay away from heavy lifting and hard activity for about six weeks. There will be some pain and swelling in the first few days but we give you pain medicine to help with that. Most guys can get back to light activity quickly but you’ll need to be patient as you heal.
We tell all our male patients that a tummy tuck is not a way to lose weight or live a healthy life. This procedure works best for guys who are already at or close to their ideal weight but have certain problem areas that diet and exercise won’t fix. If you still want to lose weight we usually suggest waiting until you’ve reached a stable weight before surgery.
If you keep your weight consistent and keep up your healthy habits the results of a tummy tuck for men can last a long time and even be permanent. Many of the men who have had the procedure say it helped them feel more confident and motivated to stay in shape.
We recommend you book a consultation with us if you’re a man in Toronto thinking of getting a tummy tuck. We’ll talk about your goals, look at your stomach and help you figure out what kind of results you can expect.
