One such service that has been positively changing the lives of our patients is Mini Abdominoplasty Surgery. But what is it exactly, and could it be the right choice for you?

What is Mini Abdominoplasty Surgery?

Mini Abdominoplasty, also commonly referred to as a Mini Tummy Tuck, is a less invasive variant of the traditional abdominoplasty. While a full abdominoplasty addresses the entire abdominal area, a mini abdominoplasty focuses on the region below the belly button, helping to remove excess skin and fat, and tightening the lower abdominal muscles.

This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight but struggle with a stubborn pouch or loose skin in the lower abdomen. The result is a smoother, flatter, and firmer abdominal profile, boosting your confidence and enhancing your overall appearance.

Who is the Ideal Candidate for a Mini Abdominoplasty?

Ideal candidates for a Mini Abdominoplasty are individuals who are in good health, close to their ideal body weight, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the surgery.

This procedure is often sought by those who have experienced changes in their lower abdomen due to aging, pregnancy, or significant weight loss.

At William Jacobsen Plastic Surgery, we place immense importance on in itial consultation and evaluation. Dr. Jacobsen and his team will comprehensively assess your needs, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine the best course of action for you.

The Mini Abdominoplasty Procedure

The Mini Abdominoplasty procedure at our clinic is carried out with the utmost care and precision. After administering anesthesia for your comfort, a small incision is made in the lower abdomen. Excess skin is removed, underlying muscles are tightened, and the remaining skin is redraped for a firmer, flatter abdomen. The incision is then meticulously closed to minimize visible scarring.

The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours, and unlike a full abdominoplasty, does not involve repositioning the navel. This results in a shorter recovery time, fewer post-operative restrictions, and an overall smoother surgical experience.

Recovery and Aftercare

After the surgery, patients may experience some swelling and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication. Most patients are able to return to non-strenuous work within one to two weeks post-surgery.

A personalized aftercare plan will be provided to ensure a smooth recovery process and to maintain the results of your surgery. It's important to refrain from heavy lifting and strenuous exercise until fully healed, which is generally around six weeks post-operation. Dr. Jacobsen and his team will be available to answer any questions and provide support throughout your recovery journey.
