A defined stomach with a clearly visible six-pack is part of the ideal image of a fit and well-toned body. However, many people find it difficult to make their six-pack abs visible, even with regular exercise and a healthy diet. Sometimes this is simply due to genetic predisposition. Men in particular tend to accumulate stubborn fat deposits in the abdominal region, which do not want to disappear despite all discipline . Often, however, there is simply not enough time in stressful everyday life to work on the six-pack in a disciplined manner. In these cases, modern plastic surgery can help.
With six-pack surgery in Stuttgart, Dr. Lars Schumacher offers you a sculpting of your abdominal region in his practice. The plastic surgeon will expose your six-pack abs through the targeted suction of excess fat pads above, between and next to the abdominal muscles. If your abdominal muscles are less toned, it is possible to emphasize the individual muscles with an injection of autologous fat for a better treatment result.
You can find out whether a six-pack operation in Stuttgart is suitable for you in a personal consultation with Dr. Lars Schumacher. The best way to do this is to make an appointment directly at our practice.

What is a six-pack operation?
Six-pack surgery in Stuttgart is a surgical procedure to accentuate and contour the abdominal muscles through liposuction. If liposuction of the fat cells is not sufficient, an additional tightening or targeted injection of the patient's own fat in the appropriate areas may be useful to achieve the desired result.
Who is suitable for a six-pack operation in Stuttgart?
People who already have well-defined abdominal muscles but have small, stubborn fat deposits in this area that will not disappear even with targeted training are suitable for six-pack surgery in Stuttgart. People who are overweight or who have just lost a lot of weight are not suitable. You can find out in a personal consultation with Dr. Schumacher whether six-pack surgery in Stuttgart is an option for you or whether another method is better suited to fulfilling your aesthetic wishes.
What should you look out for before a six-pack operation in Stuttgart?
Six-pack surgery in Stuttgart is only sensible and promising if you are not overweight, but eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly and have maintained your current normal weight over a longer period of time (several months).
How does a six-pack operation in Stuttgart work?
The first step is a detailed consultation in which you tell Dr. Schumacher your wishes and expectations. After a brief inspection and examination, Dr. Schumacher will then advise you on whether a six-pack operation in Stuttgart is suitable to achieve the desired result. If so, he will explain the procedure to you and inform you about possible risks. As a rule, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, in individual cases also under twilight sleep or general anesthesia.
On the day of the procedure, Dr. Schumacher first draws the treatment areas on your abdomen. He injects a special solution (tumescent solution) into these areas. This has an anaesthetic effect and also loosens the fat cells in the tissue, which makes liposuction easier. This is done in the next step. By suctioning out the fat cells, the underlying muscles ("six-pack") are exposed. As the procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis, you can go home on the same day.
However, please allow yourself some time to rest so that your body can recover from the procedure. It is essential that you follow our aftercare instructions, such as wearing compression garments consistently for the first few weeks after the operation. This is important to support the healing process and stabilize the results of the operation. If necessary, additional lymphatic drainage may be useful.
What should you bear in mind after a six-pack operation in Stuttgart?
The results of the operation will become apparent as soon as all swelling has subsided, which can take several months. It is important that you maintain a healthy lifestyle after recovery, including a balanced diet and exercise. Lack of exercise and weight gain can affect the results achieved with surgery and change the overall shape of the body.
What are the risks of six-pack surgery?
In general, six pack surgery is associated with few risks if it is carried out professionally and in accordance with strict hygiene standards. However, as with any procedure, there are certain general surgical risks such as circulatory disorders, (temporary) numbness or tightness or infections.
How much does a six-pack operation in Stuttgart cost?
The cost of six-pack surgery in Stuttgart can vary greatly from person to person. This is because the scope of treatment varies greatly from person to person and, in addition to liposuction, sometimes a tummy tuck or an injection of autologous fat to sculpt the muscles is also desired. After the preliminary examination and consultation, we will be happy to provide you with an individual offer with your personal treatment plan and cost estimate.
Frequently asked questions about six-pack surgery in Stuttgart
During a six-pack operation in Stuttgart, only small incisions are required for liposuction, which leave barely visible scars.
The more trained the abdominal muscles are, the better the treatment result. If desired, the muscles can be given additional volume through targeted injection and sculpting of the suctioned fat. Let Dr. Schumacher advise you whether this option is suitable for you.
The duration depends on the extent of the operation and can therefore take between 1 and 4 hours.
Thanks to the local anesthetic, you will not usually feel anything from the operation itself. However, slight pain may occur in the treatment area afterwards. This will subside after a while and can be treated very well with commercially available painkillers until then.
As a rule, you will be socially acceptable again after 1-3 days and can resume your normal (light) everyday activities.
In the first 3 months after the six-pack operation in Stuttgart, you should refrain from sport and other physical exertion. Then start with light training, which you slowly increase in intensity and duration.
Immediately after the operation, the treatment area is (sometimes very) swollen. This swelling is a normal reaction to the procedure and will subside on its own over the next few weeks to months. Only then can the final result be seen, which is usually after 3 months at the earliest.
