Tummy Tuck Seattle Specialist

Maher Anous, MD, FACS, is a highly regarded esthetic plastic surgeon who is board-certified by both the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Plastic Surgery. A Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, Dr. Anous vast surgical experiences have included extensive training in the fields of plastic surgery, burns, microvascular surgery and craniofacial surgery.

Dr. Anous has a special focus on tummy tuck surgery and extensively plans each procedure. By perfecting the planning phase, Dr. Anous is able to complete an abdominoplasty in roughly 90 minutes versus the standard three to four hours. A shorter procedure is key, because the less time a patient spends under anesthesia, the safer the procedure will be, he says. Dr. Anous takes 20 minutes in the planning process to determine exactly where his incisions will be placed. My lines are drawn with precision. If I know from doing my lines where my stitches are going to go, I dont have to imagine in surgery how to make the points fall together, he says. In a traditional tummy tuck procedure, lines are drawn to mark the lower incision and then often the decision on how much skin to remove and where to place the upper incision occurs during the surgery itself. All my lines are drawn ahead of time so there is no more guess work during surgery. It results in a more aggressive abdominoplasty with a VERY PRECISE OUTCOME, says Dr. Anous, adding that his approach also helps to ensure proper symmetry on both sides. Minimizing the appearance of scars is also a key consideration in a tummy tuck procedure. Incisions should be placed precisely between the junction of the abdomen and the thigh so you do not see them, he says.

His state-of-the-art La Provence facility is not only an esthetic center, but also a medical spa offering a variety of skin rejuvenation treatments that range from moor and algae therapies, endermologie and IPL (photo rejuvenation), to mega peel micro-dermabrasion, hair removal and vitamin c skin treatments. The La Provence medical spa boasts skilled staff estheticians determined to make each patients experience the ultimate in relaxation and rejuvenation.

In Dr. Anous opinion, there are three common traits that constitute a successful esthetic practice: safety, professionalism and a pleasant experience. Of the impression that there is altogether too much hype associated with the marketing of most esthetic practices, Dr. Anous is a firm believer in letting results speak for themselves. Prospective patients are invited to La Provence to discuss their individual concerns or questions relevant to their esthetic goals.
