Fleur-de-lis Tummy Tuck Siesta Key

View Gallery Free Personalized Consultation

After major weight loss or multiple pregnancies, loose skin can remain stretched and lax in ways that traditional tummy tucks may not fully address. When excess skin extends across the midsection both vertically and horizontally, a more advanced solution may be necessary. A Fleur-de-lis tummy tuck in Sarasota is designed for Siesta Key patients who require comprehensive contouring and reshaping.

Sarasota Surgical Arts, conveniently located just minutes from Siesta Key, offers this specialized procedure under the care of Dr. Alberico Sessa.

What Is a Fleur-de-lis Tummy Tuck?

A fleur-de-lis tummy tuck, or fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty, removes excess skin horizontally (similar to a traditional tummy tuck) and vertically (to tighten the upper and central abdomen). This creates an inverted-T incision pattern, allowing more comprehensive tightening and reshaping of the abdomen than a traditional tummy tuck alone.

Why Siesta Key Patients Consider Fleur-de-lis Tummy Tuck

Many of our patients from Siesta Key have active, outdoor lifestyles. When excess abdominal skin causes discomfort or makes clothing feel limiting, it can affect their daily routine, confidence, and comfort in swimwear. Dr. Sessa may recommend a fleur-de-lis tummy tuck for patients when:

Skin folds over the waistline or hangs in the lower abdomen
Loose skin extends into the upper abdomen and midline
The belly looks “collapsed” or stretched even at a stable weight
Skin causes irritation, hygiene issues, or recurring rashes
Abdominal muscle separation is present (diastasis recti)

During consultation, Dr. Sessa evaluates skin quality, abdominal structure, and overall health to determine if this technique is appropriate.

What to Expect If You Live in Siesta Key

After a fleur-de-lis tummy tuck with Dr. Sessa, most patients return home with a detailed plan for healing, activity restrictions, and follow-up visits. Being close to Sarasota makes post-operative check-ins convenient for Siesta Key residents.

Patients who work remotely or have desk-based jobs near Siesta Key Village, Crescent Beach, Turtle Beach, or the South Siesta area often return sooner than those with physical or lifting-heavy roles.

Scarring and Surgical Planning

Because the Fleur-de-lis technique involves a vertical incision, scarring is one of the most important considerations. Dr. Sessa plans incision placement carefully to maximize contour improvement while keeping scar design as strategic as possible. He provides scar care guidance as part of the recovery plan. Over time, scars typically soften and fade.
