Mini-Tummy Tuck

Who It Is For

The ideal candidate for a mini tummy tuck is someone with localized excess skin or fat—usually between the belly button and pubic bone—as opposed to greater excess skin or fat found in a broader area. Good candidates for a modified approach to fixing a slack tummy are in good health but find that diet and exercise hasn’t helped the issue.

A mini tummy tuck entails removing skin and tissue from the lower abdomen and repairing the weak muscles on the inside without repositioning the belly button (which is generally required in a full abdominoplasty).

There are different techniques for different body conditions. A person might be trim, but the skin could be loose. These people may only need a mini tummy tuck.
