I’m just wondering if I could get great results with just a mini tummy tuck.
Answer: Mini tummy tuck Dear TWierenga, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photo, it looks like you don't have much loose skin. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Mini TT best for skin below belly button. Mini TT’s focus their results on the skin which is under the belly button. Your photo shows that you should be an excellent candidate for a mini tummy tuck to tighten your lower abdominal skin. If your rectus fascia is separated below your belly button, this can also be tightened at the same time. Have a detailed consultation with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes.

Answer: Mini-tummy tuck? It looks like you have minimal skin laxity and no diastasis of the muscle wall. Given the situation, liposuction can help flatten the lower tummy bulge and retract nicely. Thank you.

Answer: Good candidate for a mini tummy tuck It all depends on what your goals are and what the condition of your abdomen is. If the skin in you upper abdomen is good but you notice loose skin in the lower abdomen, then a mini can be a great choice. If you have a muscle separation, then a mini with umbilical float would be considered.

Answer: Good candidate for mini Tummy tuck HelloYou are a good candidate for a mini-Tummy Tuck. I would lipo the anterior abdomen and the waist area, as well as remove the excess skin in the lower central abdomen. Depending on your abdominal wall laxity, I would consider tightening the lower abdominal wall. The tightening has to be done so that the upper part of the abdomen does not appear protruding (it needs to be balanced with the upper abdominal wall tone. In addition, micro lipo cannulas should be used to minimize skin irregularities and best contouring.

Answer: Considering options While a mini tummy tuck is an option for you, you may be able to consider alternatives and get good results. An exam is needed to know for sure but you may be a good candidate for liposuction or even BodyTite. I've included a video on this procedure that I hope you find helpful.
