2. Mini Abdominoplasty
As the name suggests, this is a smaller operation designed for individuals with less sagging and laxity. In this procedure:
A shorter incision is made below the navel.
The navel is usually not repositioned.
Only excess skin and fat below the navel are removed. Interventions on the abdominal muscles are more limited or may not be performed at all.
Who is it suitable for? Mini abdominoplasty is an excellent option for those with mild sagging in the lower abdomen, individuals who cannot get rid of lower abdominal fat despite diet and exercise, and those who do not require a full tummy tuck.
3. Circumferential Abdominoplasty (360° Abdominoplasty)
This is the most comprehensive type of tummy tuck, performed for body contouring and lifting. This procedure corrects sagging not only in the abdominal area but also in the waist, hips, and back.
An incision is made around the abdomen and back.
Excess skin and fat tissue from the abdomen, waist, hips, and back are removed.
Abdominal muscles are tightened.
Who is it suitable for? Circumferential abdominoplasty offers impressive and comprehensive results, especially for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss (such as after bariatric surgery) and have noticeable sagging in multiple areas of their body.
