Types of Tummy Tuck “ Tummy Lift ”

Mini – Tummy Tuck

A mini-tummy Tuck, also known as mini-abdominoplasty surgery, is preferred by patients with limited skin laxity and excess fat relegated to below the belly button. During this simple belly tuck procedure, the surgeon removes excess saggy skin from below the belly button, tightens muscles and skin, and may aspirate fats out of the same area using a thin tube.

Full tummy lift or Full Tummy Tuck

This tummy tuck procedure which is also known as abdominoplasty is a plastic surgery performed for patients with excess fat and sagging skin not only in several parts of the abdomen but also below the navel area where the deposits of fat and sagging skin are somewhat greater. Compared to a mini- tummy tuck, a full- tummy tuck or full belly tuck requires a longer time.

Once the patient is anesthetized, the surgeon creates an incision extending along the patient’s hip bones, then removes the excess skin and tightens and removes their flaccidity in a cosmetic way that guarantees great results. After the extended tummy tuck is conducted, it should be noted that the location of the navel point might be changed. The surgeon may try liposuction of the same area depending on the patient’s condition.

Tummy Tuck 360

Good candidates for such a complex belly tuck surgical procedure are people with great deposits of sagging skin and excess fat of their flanks and back that they would like to address. This case can be seen in both women and men who suffer from obesity.
During the male tummy tuck or the female one, the surgeon creates an incision extending beyond the hips area towards the back, i.e. around the abdomen and the entire back at a 360-degree angle.

After that, the surgeon tightens the stomach muscles or performs a stomach lift, removes excess skin and repositions the navel in a way that fits the final shape of the abdomen. Tummy Tuck 360 helps get great changes that cannot be achieved using other techniques.
