Circumferential Tummy Tuck
Circumferential Tummy Tuck in Indianapolis & Carmel
Comprehensive body contouring designed to address excess skin and reshape the abdomen, waistline, flanks, and lower back.
At My Plastic Surgery Group, we take a personalized approach to circumferential tummy tuck surgery, helping patients achieve smoother, more balanced body contours following pregnancy, significant weight loss, or changes in skin elasticity over time. Unlike a traditional tummy tuck that focuses primarily on the front of the abdomen, a circumferential tummy tuck treats the entire midsection, including the abdomen, flanks, and lower back, for more comprehensive contouring results.
This advanced body contouring procedure is commonly chosen by patients with loose or hanging skin around the waistline that cannot be improved through diet and exercise alone. By removing excess skin and reshaping the torso circumferentially, patients can achieve improved body proportions, a more defined waistline, and a silhouette that better reflects the progress they have worked hard to achieve.
Our surgeons prioritize individualized surgical planning, thoughtful incision placement, and natural looking contouring while supporting patients through every stage of the recovery process.
Circumferential tummy tuck pricing typically ranges from $17,000–$22,000 depending on surgical complexity, anatomy, and individualized treatment planning. A consultation is required to provide a customized surgical quote.
Circumferential Tummy Tuck Procedure Details
A circumferential tummy tuck, also referred to as a 360 tummy tuck or lower body lift, is a more comprehensive body contouring procedure designed to address excess skin and tissue around the abdomen, waistline, flanks, and lower back. Unlike a traditional tummy tuck that focuses primarily on the front of the abdomen, a circumferential approach improves contour around the entire lower torso for more balanced, circumferential refinement.
Many patients seek circumferential tummy tuck surgery following pregnancy, significant weight loss, or changes in skin elasticity when excess skin and tissue extend beyond the abdomen to the hips, flanks, or lower back. This procedure may help improve body contour, waistline definition, clothing fit, and overall body proportion while creating a smoother transition between the abdomen, waist, and lower body.
Depending on the patient’s anatomy and surgical plan, a circumferential tummy tuck may also provide improvement in the appearance of the outer thighs and buttocks through circumferential skin tightening and contouring techniques. Our surgeons focus on natural looking body contouring results with individualized treatment planning and thoughtful incision placement.
Common Concerns Addressed by Circumferential Tummy Tuck Surgery
A circumferential tummy tuck may help improve concerns such as:
- Excess abdominal skin
- Loose skin extending around the waistline or lower back
- Skin laxity following pregnancy or weight loss
- Lower body contour imbalance
- Difficulty with clothing fit
- Circumferential skin excess
- Stretching of the abdominal wall
Who May Be a Candidate?
Circumferential tummy tuck surgery is often best suited for patients experiencing excess skin and tissue around the entire lower torso that cannot be improved through diet and exercise alone. Many candidates are near a stable goal weight and are seeking more comprehensive contour improvement than a traditional tummy tuck alone can provide.
During consultation, your surgeon will carefully evaluate your anatomy, skin quality, goals, and recovery considerations to determine whether circumferential tummy tuck surgery may be appropriate for your body contouring needs.
Recovery & Surgical Planning
Because circumferential tummy tuck surgery addresses multiple areas of the lower body simultaneously, recovery is generally more extensive than a standard tummy tuck procedure. Temporary swelling, tightness, activity restrictions, and compression garments are expected during the healing process.
Our team provides detailed postoperative guidance and individualized recovery planning designed to support patient comfort, healing, and long-term contour results.

My experience was wonderful! Everyone was so kind and answered all my questions. I didn't feel rushed at all. I highly recommend My Plastic Surgery Group!Posted on Kelly McCain Smith16 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Update March 2026: I’ve been seeing Nate for microneedling for just over a year now (five treatments to date), and the results have been great. Early on, we incorporated the VAMP add-on, and I stuck with it for most of my treatments. At my most recent session, I decided to skip it to save a little money and see if it really made a difference – and I can honestly say I regret that decision. With VAMP, my redness is usually reduced by about 50% by the end of the first day and mostly gone by the end of day two. This time, without it, I stayed noticeably red and a bit puffy for almost four days. That alone convinced me it absolutely works and is worth it. I will definitely be adding VAMP back in for my future treatments. Nate is always professional, knowledgeable, and makes the whole process very comfortable. If you’re considering microneedling, I highly recommend seeing Nate. 2025: Nate is fantastic! I’m very pleased with my results.Posted on Millie Hawley13 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I start. My plastic surgery group is the best. The kindness that they reflect toward the patients it is an unmatched. I love everyone I have come in contact with.

I had a breast augmentation by Dr Aker a year and a half ago and am happy with the results. I also get Botox done by Nate, he is awesome! I’ll continue to go here and will recommend others to as well.
