If you’re bothered by the appearance of your lower abdomen, a mini-abdominoplasty can help you get the results you want with a relatively short recovery.
A modified version of the tummy tuck, the mini-abdominoplasty removes excess sagging tissue from the lower abdomen (below the belly button) to restore a firmer, flatter, thinner silhouette. Depending on your needs, the surgeon may also remove some stretch marks below the belly button during surgery or even slightly tighten the loose muscles.
Am I a good candidate for the mini-abdominoplasty?
- A mini tummy tuck can be a great option if you are healthy and have a stable weight without a large excess of abdominal skin.
- Usually, the best candidates are mainly concerned with loose skin or a lower belly protruding.
- If you have stretched or sagging skin or muscles, a full tummy tuck may work better.

Before the surgery:
During your consultation with the surgeon, he explains the progress of the mini-abdominoplasty.
Depending on your state of health, the surgeon will ask you to perform a laboratory test or a medical examination before your surgery.
It is recommended to stop smoking for 6 weeks before any surgery because smoking affects your body’s ability to heal.
Products such as chewing gum and Nicoderm continue to provide nicotine to your body and should also be stopped.
You can contact us if you need help to stop smoking.
Make sure you have a responsible adult to accompany you. You will need someone to stay with you for at least 24 hours after your surgery
During the surgery :
The techniques of complete abdominoplasty and mini-abdominoplasty can be very similar.
However, a smaller incision is made for the mini tummy tuck since a smaller area is treated.
It depends on the amount of the stretched skin that will be removed.
Liposuction can be used with this surgery.
During the procedure, excess skin is removed and the remaining skin and underlying tissues are stretched.
The result is a flat stomach and more toned. The navel is unaffected by this surgery because it usually does not need to be repositioned.
The scar is usually limited to the lower abdomen and is hidden by underwear and swimsuits.
