The Mini Tuck, or Mini Abdominoplasty, is the most modern approach to minimally invasive tummy rejuvenation. The procedure is easily performed under local anesthesia with light sedation. Patients are very comfortable while at the same time avoiding the risk of general anesthesia.
The Mini Tuck® involves the removal of the loose skin in the lower abdomen. The result is a well-hidden fine line below the bikini line that is even better than a c-section scar. Patients with a previous c-section scar seek this treatment to tighten skin and flatten their tummy. The Mini Tuck can be performed alone or with full tummy laser liposuction sculpting. The sculpting of your love handles, flanks, and upper and lower abdomen will significantly improve your shape and the skin removal will provide tightening of your skin.
When can I go back to work after a Mini Tuck®?
The Mini Tuck also has the advantage of a very quick recovery. The procedures take about 2 hours and you go home afterwards. Patients usually take a couple days off of work and are then back to normal daily activities.
When can I go back to exercise after a Mini Tuck®?
We recommend waiting four weeks before returning to vigorous exercise.
If you are you wishing for a flatter, tighter, more sculpted tummy then this procedure may be perfect for you.
