A mini tummy tuck is similar to a full tummy tuck except the scars that are generally shorter in length, less undermining of the abdominal skin is performed and a muscle repair may or may not be performed. Patients may have a quicker recovery with this “limited” procedure, however a mini tummy tuck may not be the best option for all patients. Dr. Tyrone will discuss with you which procedure would be best for you during your consultation.
