About Tummy Tuck Surgery
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening weakened or separated abdominal muscles. It’s often recommended for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or age-related changes that diet and exercise alone can’t correct. At Quintessa, our surgeons use advanced techniques, like the drainless tummy tuck, to enhance your midsection with minimal downtime. The result is a flatter, firmer, and more contoured abdominal profile.

Best Candidates for Tummy Tuck
If you’re considering a tummy tuck, you may be a great candidate if you’re struggling with any of the following concerns:
- Loose or sagging abdominal skin
- Separated or weakened abdominal muscles (diastasis recti)
- Stubborn belly fat resistant to diet and exercise
- Stretch marks on the lower abdomen
- A protruding or bulging stomach after pregnancy
- Excess skin following significant weight loss
Types of Tummy Tuck Offered
We offer a range of tummy tucks in Madison, tailored to your unique goals. Each option is tailored to address different levels of skin laxity and muscle separation:
Mini Tummy Tuck
Ideal for patients with mild skin laxity and lower abdominal concerns, the mini tummy tuck targets the area just above the pubic bone. It involves a smaller incision and shorter recovery time than a full abdominoplasty.
Standard Tummy Tuck
This traditional tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat from both the upper and lower abdomen and tightens the abdominal muscles. It’s an excellent choice for patients looking to restore a flatter, more toned midsection.
Extended Tummy Tuck
For patients with significant skin laxity that extends to the flanks or lower back, the extended tummy tuck offers more comprehensive results. It provides dramatic contouring and is often recommended after major weight loss.
Fleur-de-lis Tummy Tuck
This technique removes skin both horizontally and vertically to reshape the entire midsection and define the waistline. It’s often used for patients with extensive loose skin following massive weight loss.
Lower Body Lift (Torsoplasty)
Also called a belt lipectomy, this procedure lifts and tightens the abdomen, buttocks, hips, and outer thighs. It’s a full circumferential solution for those with excess skin and sagging around the entire lower body.
Upper Back Lift (Bra Line Lift)
This lift removes loose skin and fat from the upper back, chest, and underarm area. It’s especially helpful for patients who have undergone dramatic weight loss and want a more sculpted upper body.

Our Three Step Process
1. The Tummy Tuck Procedure
During your tummy tuck, your surgeon will begin by making a discreet incision along your lower abdomen, usually below the bikini line. Through this incision, excess skin and fat are removed, and your abdominal muscles are tightened to restore core strength and a flatter contour. Liposuction may also be used to sculpt your waistline. At Quintessa, we use an advanced drainless technique that minimizes discomfort and speeds up recovery. The procedure typically takes 2 to 3 hours and is performed as an outpatient surgery.
2. Tummy Tuck Recovery and Results
After your tummy tuck, you’ll wear a compression garment for 6 weeks to support healing and reduce swelling. You can expect to return to work within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on your level of activity. However, you avoid heavy lifting or strenuous exercise for several weeks. Some tightness, numbness, and pulling sensations are normal during the recovery process. As swelling subsides, your midsection will appear flatter and more toned. With proper care and a stable weight, your tummy tuck results can be long-lasting.
3. Complementary Procedures
To further enhance your results, you may combine your tummy tuck in Madison with other procedures that refine your body shape. At Quintessa, our team can help you create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals. Common complementary procedures include:
- Liposuction for additional fat removal and body contouring
- Breast lift or augmentation to restore breast shape and volume
- Mommy Makeover for comprehensive post-pregnancy rejuvenation
- Thigh lift to address loose skin on the upper legs
- Arm lift to tighten and sculpt sagging upper arms

Client Reviews
Thank you for helping me feel and look amazing.
“I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Butz and the work he did on my body. I suffered from severe ab separation and hernias after having three children. Dr. Butz put me back together by doing a Tummy Tuck to correct and fix my abdomen…”

I love my results and would definitely recommend Dr. Butz.
“Dr. Butz and his staff are amazing. Someone was always available to answer my questions and talk me through my concerns. I was very nervous to have a mommy makeover (muscle and hernia repair, 360 lipo and tummy tuck) but I am so glad I did!..”
