The Fleur-de-Lis tummy tuck technique is named after the shape of the incision used during the procedure, which is like the shape of the French symbol Fleur-de-Lis. The incision is made horizontally along the lower abdomen and vertically up the middle, allowing the surgeon to remove excess skin and fat from both the upper and lower abdomen. One of the advantages of the Fleur-de-Lis tummy tuck technique is that it can provide more dramatic results than traditional tummy tuck procedures. It can help to remove larger amounts of excess skin and fat and create a more defined waistline.
