A mini tummy tuck abdominoplasty is basically a procedure that is not as invasive as the regular abdominoplasty. In some cases the doctor will call this procedure a partial abdominoplasty and we are basically talking about an operation that is great for individuals that have the need to remove a small quantity of skin from the abdomen. The main difference between you being a candidate for mini tummy tuck abdominoplasty or regular tummy tuck abdominoplasty stands in your body not showing an abdominal muscle wall that is protruding too much. You will only be able to learn if you are a candidate for mini tummy tuck after you consult a specialist and go through a certain number of tests.
A mini tummy tuck abdominoplasty surgery is done with the patient in general anesthesia. Lately we have noticed a lot of doctors also performing it with the use of mild sedation or local anesthetic. All solutions are possible and we are basically faced with the way in which the doctor wants to operate deciding the type of anesthesia to use. You will have an incision done on your abdomen. Its length varies based on how much skin will be removed. You can expect a much smaller incision than you would have in a regular tummy tuck. This fact has earned the mini tummy tuck abdominoplasty another common referring name in “Scarless tummy tuck”. One important difference between tummy tucks and mini tummy tucks stands in the fact that the doctor will not need to reposition your navel when performing a mini abdominoplasty. We must also add that liposuction is also performed in some situations in an effort to better sculpt your tummy into a shape that you want to have.
You will be happy to know that if you go through with a mini tummy tuck abdominoplasty you have a big chance that you will be able to leave the clinic in some hours after the surgery has ended. We can approximate the recovery time associated with that of regular liposuctions. Do not underestimate the needed recovery. Remember that we are still talking about a surgery. You will need to respect all the instructions that will be handed to you by your doctor. There might be postoperative pain present but the good news is that over the counter pain medication is usually able to help you deal with it. To make it even more special, you will probably be able to get back to work after few days from the operation have past. On the other hand, you need to take into account that you really have to stop from having strenuous activities in the following weeks after the surgery. This is required in order for your body to fully heal and have those positive effects you will be looking for.
We need to further emphasize on one problem that we noticed. People do tend to treat this surgery lightly, just because it is consider simpler than regular tummy tucks. Do not do this and keep a close relationship with your doctor. Ask him what you need to do after the operation and do not neglect the tips he will give you. It is highly important for faster healing and we are sure that you will want this to become a reality. A mini tummy tuck abdominoplasty is a great way to solve some body contour problems you might have but you should handle the entire situation seriously. Remember that only the doctor can decide whether or not you are a good candidate for a mini tummy tuck. You need to be realistic at all times!
