What does mini tummy tuck surgery do?
 It eliminates the excess skin and fat from the lower part of the abdomen, that is, the section below the navel. If your problem is that persistent roll of fat showing above your bikini, this is the right procedure for you.
At the same time, it may also help to solve preexisting problems, such as hernias or eventrations. |

How is mini tummy tuck surgery performed?
The surgeon makes a horizontal
or slightly curved incision of approximately 6 inches (15
cm), just above the pubic hair. He separates the skin of the
lower section of the abdomen, between the pubis and the navel,
from the underlying tissues. He cuts the excess skin and sutures,
without having to stretch the skin first. Since there is no
tension, the wound tends to heal without any complications.
Finally, before a bandage is applied, he places a temporary
drainage tube that will help eliminate the excess fluids.
Hospitalization There is no need to be hospitalized,
it is done on an outpatient basis.
Anesthesia Local anesthesia and complementary
sedation, or general anesthesia.
Length of mini tummy tuck surgery About one
hour
