Newsletter: Mini tummy tuck
also known as a lower abdominal correction, a subtle, quick and effective correction of the lower abdomen performed as a day-clinic procedure.
What is a mini tummy tuck?
It is a procedure that focuses on excess skin and fatty tissue after pregnancy or significant weight loss, efficiently removing the “rolls” in the lower abdomen.
If there is excess skin or tissue in the upper abdomen, this will not be corrected with a mini tummy tuck.
In that case, a full tummy tuck is required.
However, a lower abdominal correction is suitable in many cases and usually involves a faster recovery than a full tummy tuck.
Unlike a full tummy tuck, the belly button remains in the same position.
