This type, also known as Standard Abdominoplasty, is a procedure applied to those who want to tighten the upper and lower abdomen at the same time.
It is usually done under general anesthesia and takes between one and three hours, depending on the complexity of the surgery.
During the full tip, the surgeon will make a horizontal or U-shaped incision above the pubic bump that runs from the hipbone to the hipbone. They will then remove excess skin tissue and tighten the abdominal muscles.
Sometimes the surgeon may make a second incision to remove excess skin in the area above the belly button and achieve the best results.
The surgeon will reposition the navel (belly button) and stitch the incision with stitches to complete the procedure.
This procedure is ideal for people with excessive skin folds above and below the belly button.
Mini Abdominoplasty is a procedure that aims to tighten the lower abdomen under the belly button.
The scar created by this method is thin and shorter than the standard type incision.
This method is less invasive compared to the standard procedure. Ideal for people with loose skin between the navel and pubic mound.
During a mini tummy tuck, the surgeon will make a small horizontal incision below the navel to remove excess skin and tighten the abdominal muscles. Then they will close the incision.
The surgeon will not need to reposition the belly button with this type.
A mini procedure is usually done under general anesthesia and takes two hours.
This procedure is more invasive than the standard process. It treats the upper and lower abdomen, waist and hips.
The surgeon makes two incisions, a horizontal incision along the lower abdomen and a vertical incision along the navel.
The surgeon will remove excess skin and fat from these incisions and tighten the abdominal muscles. They will then reposition the navel (belly button) and close the incisions.
Although this type causes longer incisions, it removes looser skin and excess fat and tightens the muscles.
This method is suitable for people who want to sculpt the circular shape of their body.
The extended 360 type of tummy tuck is usually performed under general anesthesia and takes two to four hours.
After finishing the procedure, the surgeon will cover the incisions with gauze.
