A mini tummy tuck, also called a partial abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery that improves the appearance of the belly by removing excess skin and fat. It targets only the area below the navel, unlike a full tummy tuck that covers the entire midsection. During a partial abdominoplasty, an incision is made above the pubic region to remove excess tissue. On average, the procedure takes 1-2 hours to complete. A mini tummy tuck produces a flatter, tighter belly profile by eliminating loose skin and fat in the lower abdomen.
Before a mini tummy tuck surgery, patients have an in-depth consultation with Dr. Mordkovich to discuss their goals, expectations, and candidacy. The doctor evaluates the patient’s health history and the condition of their belly region to determine if a partial abdominoplasty is appropriate or if another procedure would better achieve the desired aesthetic results.
Abdominal etching is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s preferences and the extent of the treatment area. The surgical procedure usually takes between one to three hours to complete.
A mini tummy tuck is very effective at improving lower belly contours. Removing excess fat and skin tightens the abdomen for a flatter, smoother appearance. It also reduces the rounded protrusion and stretch marks that may occur after pregnancy or weight fluctuations. This surgery helps define the natural curves around the pubic region. As a result, patients receive a more youthful, contoured body shape.
Removing excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen can significantly improve self-image. Seeing a flatter stomach in the mirror makes patients feel better about their appearance and boosts their confidence. For those bothered by excess tissues after pregnancy or weight loss, this procedure may provide a psychological and emotional lift.
A mini tummy tuck offers more than just cosmetic and psychological benefits. It also removes skin irritation and chafing caused by loose tissues. This can make it easier for active patients to exercise or play sports without discomfort or limitations. An improved abdominal contour motivates them to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
A mini tummy tuck is less invasive than a full abdominoplasty. A smaller horizontal incision is made below the bikini line to tighten loose skin in the lower abdomen. This results in less scarring and a shorter recovery time.
A mini tummy tuck is always performed as an outpatient procedure. This means patients can go home on the same day as their surgery. Dr. Mordkovich uses local numbing combined with IV sedation so patients have minimal discomfort and avoid the risks associated with general anesthesia. There is no need for an overnight hospital stay. Patients can start recovering in the comfort of their homes.
