Mini tummy tuck surgery is less invasive than traditional abdominoplasty. The mini tummy tuck, or partial abdominoplasty, is often an excellent option for people who have a small amount of abdominal skin to be removed and do not have a significantly protruding abdominal muscle wall. Individuals whose abdominal area is beginning to sag due to aging or who have slim abdomens that they wish to sculpt into a more desirable shape may find that a mini tummy tuck is ideal for them.

The full tummy tuck or abdominoplasty addresses the three components of abdominal deformity (skin, fat, muscle) so it benefits most women who want as flat a stomach as possible and skin as tight as possible. Results, especially when combined with liposuction of the flanks, are dramatic. The tummy tuck procedure can be done under general, regional, or twilight anesthesia, depending on individual patient preference and needs. The first step is to cut the skin between the belly button and top of pubic hair. The belly button stays in place.

Also called as a body lift by many, an extended tummy tuck/ abdominoplasty is an excellent option for those patients who have recently lost a substantial amount of weight, whether through bariatric surgery or a strict regimen of diet and exercise. Such weight loss often leaves the skin looking stretched and loose, this skin can weigh several pounds. An extended tummy tuck/abdominoplasty allows for the removal of this skin and tightens the remaining skin and tissue, leaving the body looking more toned and trim.
