Will a Mini Tummy Tuck Reduce Stretch Marks?

A mini tummy tuck will eleiminate the stretch marks located halfway between the belly button and pubis and nothing on the hips or above the belly button.

A mini tummy tuck is a safe and effective procedure that can create a more contoured abdomen, a tight waist and a beautiful figure.

In our Miami practice, we treat many patients of all shapes sizes and abdominal forms. Patients appreciate that the most effective treatment for extra skin or stretch marks is a tummy tuck. Tummy tucks are especially effective in achieving stretch marks below the belly button. Your best bet is to work with a board-certified plastic surgeon that is what many different techniques of tummy tucks as they will need to physically examine you to determine how much extra skin you have, how much is possible to remove, and let you know if a muscle repair would help in your situation.
 

Stretch marks that are very low onthe abdomen may be removed with a mini, but if there are stretch marks up to the umbilicus you would more than likely need a full tummy tuck to get those out.
