Mini Tummy Tuck


A MINI TUMMY TUCK focuses on the skin below the belly button. Muscle tightening in this abbreviated tummy tuck is restricted to the muscles of the lower abdomen. This procedure requires a smaller incision, and thus a shorter scar than in a full tummy tuck procedure. MINI TUMMY TUCKS are normally combined with liposuction of the full abdomen for very effective body contouring, and work best when there is minimal skin excess above the belly button. The scar from the skin removal is discreetly placed in the fold above the pubic area and hip bones; it can often be hidden under small bikini bathing suits or under garments. Love handles can be removed with liposuction as well as the inner thighs all using the mini scar.

The MINI TUMMY TUCK is performed at an out-patient surgery center under general anesthesia. The scar from the skin removal is discreetly placed in the fold above the pubic area and hip bones; it can often be hidden under small bikini bathing suits or under garments.
