Tuck Photos are a great help when considering a tummy tuck as
a cosmetic procedure. Please spend as much time as
necessary looking through our before & after gallery of
tummy tuck photos.
There is a range of Mini Tummy Tuck Procedures
designed to treat the spectrum of patient needs. In
consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, the
choice of procedure will be made based on the your anatomic
features and desired outcome. While all tummy tucks have in
common that they tighten the abdominal skin, there are two key
differences between the various tummy tuck surgery procedures.
The incision lengths vary depending on the amount of skin to
be excised, and the abdominal muscles may be tightened if they
have excess laxity.
The length of the incision is determined by the amount of
loose skin that is to be removed. The incision lengths vary
from as short as six inches (Mini Tummy Tuck)
to as long as the entire circumference of the waist (Body
Lift). The most common incision length runs from hip
to hip concealed beneath the bikini line (Full or
Traditional Tummy Tuck).
In addition to removing loose skin, localized fat deposits
can also be removed during your tummy tuck. It is recommended,
however, that you be as close as possible to your goal weight
before having the procedure.
Liposuction may be performed in combination with tummy tuck
to remove additional fat around the abdomen or to treat other
areas such as the hips and flanks.
