| Content | A mini tummy tuck is a good option for patients who have excess weight in the abdomen, whose skin is too loose for liposuction to be performed alone, but who is too tight to require a full tummy tuck. A mini tummy tuck is a frequently preferred method in patients who are not overweight, as it causes shorter scars and faster post-operative recovery.
What is a mini tummy tuck (mini-abdominoplasty)?
In the mini tummy tuck process, excess fat is removed from the entire abdomen and waist area, excess skin under the navel is removed, but no stretching is performed on the part above the navel.
Who can have a mini tummy tuck?
Mini tummy tuck is applied to patients who have given birth but whose skin and excess fat are limited below the navel. Patients with a high navel are also suitable candidates for a mini tummy tuck.
How are mini tummy tuck surgeries performed?
In the mini tummy tuck procedure, liposuction is first applied to the entire abdomen and waist area. In the meantime, if necessary, fat injection is made into the buttocks. The abdominal skin is lifted from the abdominal wall up to the navel. If necessary, the loosened abdominal muscles are stitched together and the lower part of the abdominal wall is tightened. Then, the excess part of the skin under the belly button is removed.
Is it necessary to lose weight before mini tummy tuck surgery?
Excess weight poses a risk to all surgeries. After the operation, patients stand up more difficult, their wounds heal later, and lung problems are experienced more frequently. For this reason, obese patients are recommended to reduce their weight before surgery.
Is anesthesia required in mini tummy tuck surgeries?
Abdominoplasty operations are performed in the operating room environment and under general anesthesia or heavy sedatives.
How long does tummy tuck surgery take?
The procedures to be performed determine the duration of the surgery. If liposuction will not be applied to a very large area, mini tummy tuck surgery takes between one and two hours.
What happens after mini tummy tuck surgery?
During the operation, a drain is often placed on the patients and an abdominal corset is worn. The patient is fed and stood up three to four hours after surgery. Usually the patient is discharged the same or the next day. If necessary, the drains are left in place for a few more days. Since all the sutures are left under the skin, there is no need for suture removal. Two to three days after surgery, patients can go back to their normal life. After six weeks, all sports activities are free. |
