Mini Tummy Tuck Surgery
If you would like to improve your body shape because of skin laxity and excess fat in your lower abdomen, which does not reduce with good diet and exercise, do not have any serious medical conditions, and are not significantly overweight, then a Mini Abdominoplasty is likely to be suitable for you. VASER Liposuction may be required to achieve the optimum body shaping.
Benefits about Abdominoplasty
Mini Abdominoplasty, Mini Tummy Tuck surgery is performed to reduce the heavy lower abdomen and hips to enable you to wear the clothes you want and boost your self-esteem. Especially suitable to regain your body shape post-baby!
A Mini Tummy Tuck can restore a youthful figure, flat lower abdomen, following pregnancy, post-baby, or weight loss. Mini Abdominoplasty is less invasive than a full Tummy Tuck, with a short recovery time.

The improvement in body shape can boost your self-confidence and comfort enabling you to exercise effectively to maintain good body weight and shape.

Recovery time
Mild to Moderate pain/discomfort is expected for 3 – 5 days. Patients can go back to their normal daily activities after 3 days, but avoid strenuous exercise/activity for 6 weeks. It will be necessary to wear a support garment for the first 3 weeks, day and night, and the second 3 weeks during the day. The majority of swelling will resolve in 3 – 4 weeks but it may take up to 3 months to return to normal.
Results of a Mini Tummy Tuck
The results are first and foremost natural. The goals of Mini Tummy Tuck surgery are to restore your proportions to achieve a natural aesthetic appearance. The result should boost your self-confidence; allow you to wear the clothes you wish and feel more comfortable.
The results of Mini Abdominoplasty surgery are expected to be permanent if performed in conjunction with a good diet and exercise. However, you should be aware that if you gain weight following your Mini Tummy Tuck, the results of your surgery will not be optimal.
Scars: Unfortunately, it is necessary to have a scar as a result of Mini Abdominoplasty, but every effort is made to minimize the scars and ensure that these are as inconspicuous as possible. The goal is to achieve a scar that is as short as possible and which, once fully healed is barely visible. The scar is placed within the pants line – the bikini line. The extent of the scar is determined by the amount of excess skin to be removed.
