Tummy Tuck Surgery Info
Mini-abdominoplasty, also known as a Mini Tummy Tuck, is a targeted cosmetic surgery designed to remove excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen while tightening underlying muscles. Unlike a full abdominoplasty, the mini version is ideal for individuals who have localized sagging or bulging below the navel and do not require extensive correction of the upper abdomen.

Emergency Cases
Types of Tummy Tuck Procedures We Offer
Full Tummy Tuck (Complete Abdominoplasty)
This traditional procedure involves a horizontal incision across the lower abdomen, removing excess skin and fat while tightening abdominal muscles. It is ideal for patients with significant skin laxity or muscle separation due to pregnancy or weight loss.
Mini Tummy Tuck:
A less invasive option focused on the lower abdomen below the belly button. It suits patients with mild skin looseness or localised fat deposits and offers a quicker recovery time.
Extended Tummy Tuck:
This technique extends the incision around the hips and flanks to remove excess skin and fat from the sides and lower back, providing more comprehensive contouring for those with widespread laxity.
Circumferential Tummy Tuck (Body Lift):
Also called a belt lipectomy, this procedure removes excess skin and fat from the entire midsection—including the abdomen, hips, and lower back—ideal for patients with massive weight loss and extensive skin laxity.
Fleur-De-Lis Tummy Tuck:
Designed for patients with both horizontal and vertical excess skin, this technique adds a vertical incision to the traditional tummy tuck, allowing for more extensive skin removal and tightening.
Reverse Tummy Tuck (Upper Abdominoplasty):
Targeting the upper abdomen, this surgery removes excess skin and tightens muscles through incisions made below the breasts. It’s perfect for patients with loose skin above the belly button.
Drainless Tummy Tuck:
Utilizing advanced surgical methods, this option minimizes or eliminates the need for postoperative drains, resulting in a more comfortable recovery experience.
Our team will guide you through each option to select the tummy tuck procedure that best fits your body and goals, ensuring safe, natural-looking results.
Life-Changing Benefits of Tummy Tuck Surgery
How long does it take to recover from a tummy tuck?
Most patients can return to light activities within 10–14 days. Complete recovery and final results typically take 6–8 weeks, depending on the procedure and individual healing.
Will there be visible scars after a tummy tuck?
Yes, but the incision is placed low on the abdomen and can be concealed under underwear or swimwear. Scars usually fade over time with proper care.
Can a tummy tuck remove stretch marks?
If stretch marks are located on the skin that is removed (usually below the belly button), they will be eliminated. However, it does not remove all stretch marks.
Is tummy tuck surgery painful?
Mild to moderate discomfort is expected during the first few days, but pain is well-managed with prescribed medications and proper aftercare.
Can I combine a tummy tuck with other procedures like liposuction?
Yes. Tummy tuck surgery is often combined with liposuction for enhanced contouring and more refined results.
How long do the results of a tummy tuck last?
Results are long-lasting if maintained with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Significant weight fluctuations or pregnancy can affect outcomes.
Who is not a good candidate for tummy tuck surgery?
Those who plan future pregnancies or have major medical conditions may not be ideal candidates. A full evaluation during consultation will determine your suitability.
