Can you get muscle repair with a mini tummy tuck?

During a mini tummy tuck your surgeon will be limited in how much muscle repair can be performed. The area below the belly button can be addressed but that may leave a protruding area above the tummy giving a "muffin top" look. Visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for an evaluation. She/He will advise if you have muscle separation above and below your belly button in which case a standard tummy tuck would be a better option.

Thank you for the question.  Yes, the procedure you are describing is possible BUT  there are very few patients who are a good candidates ( who will achieve aesthetically pleasing outcomes) for this procedure. For the vast majority of patients who have had pregnancies and/or weight loss a full abdominoplasty is necessary to achieve the desired results.   When the time is right, seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience helping patients achieve the types of outcomes you would be pleased with.   You may find the attached link, dedicated to tummy tuck surgery concerns, helpful to you as you learn more. Best wishes. 

Yes, but this procedure is appropriate for very few patients.  I
would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is
most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of
these procedures each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as
before and after photos on that surgeon's website.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
