Is It Safe to Have Mini Tummy Tuck with Liposuction?

Mini-abdominoplasty tightens the lower abdominal wall muscles and removes redundant skin below the umbilicus, belly button, only. The shortest scar technique leaves a scar at the pubic hair line. Liposuction may be used alone or in conjunction with a tummy tuck to benefit selected patients
‘Mini” tummy tucks can benefit patients who have a small amount of excess skin and fat or protruding of the lower abdomen. This operation may be done under local anesthesia with sedation, on an outpatient basis. Liposuction may be used alone or in conjunction with a tummy tuck to benefit selected patients.

Far more important than deciding if a mini tummy tuck is for you is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let him explain why one technique may be better than another and if you need a tummy tuck. Many board certified plastic surgeons provide a free first time consult and you should take advantage of that!

Yes, to some degree this is what differentiates a full from a mini tummy tuck.
Liposuction is generally considered an integral part of mini tummy tuck and usually considered relatively safe in comparison to liposuction with full tummy tucks

Quite often a mini tummy tuck is combined with liposcuction of the abodmen and flanks.  It can also be done on other body parts.

Many women choose to have multiple procedures done at the same time to take advantage of one recovery period. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best and safest possible options for you. Depending on the severity and complexity of the case, it may be in your best interest to have a full (standard) tummy tuck rather than a mini tummy tuck if you have issues with your flank area. In some cases, an extended tummy tuck is also benficial for patients who have concerns with the so-called "muffin tops" or flanks. Candidates for liposuction of that particular area is based on the quality of the skin or the outcome and goal the patient would like to achieve. A mini tummy tuck involves only repair below the belly button area. Not many women are good candidates for this procedure, especially when they have experienced pregnancy due to stretching of the rectus muscles (muscle diastasis). For a full (standard) tummy tuck, the recuts muscles are repaired and the excess and loose skin is removed resulting in a tightened abdominal area. Liposuction is usually included, regardless of the tummy tuck procedure to improve the overall body contour and shape. Good luck and take care.

It is safe to perform a mini tummy tuck with luck. In fact in our practice, all Mini tummy tucks receive liposuction. Liposuction is an extremely effective technique that allows us to reach areas of the abdomen that we would not be able to access with a mini tummy tuck alone. Work with a board-certified plastic surgeon with a great deal of experience in regular tummy tucks, Mini tummy tucks, and liposuction. Take time to understand what their goals are and how they plan to accomplish them
