I would like to be able to get a mini tummy tuck because I would like to keep my natural belly button. I was just told I need a full tummy tuck. I understand my upper stomach is not perfect but, I thought with a combination of a mini tummy tuck and lipo that I could have desired results.

Answer: Tummy tuck Dear kelsrosado, based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a TT. Full tummy tuck should tighten your abdominal muscles and remove the excess skin. Flanks liposuction would give you a better shape. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Mini vs. Full Tuck Thanks for your question and the photos you provided. If you want a mini tuck, you will sacrifice loose skin to the upper abdomen that may hood over your belly button. This can happen after liposuction. Since your natural belly button will obscured, you might as well get the full tummy tuck as recommended. Good luck! Make sure you have your procedure performed by a board certified plastic surgon.

Answer: Mini versus a full tummy tuck With a full tummy tuck you'll get more of the stretch marks out. Liposuction of the waists can be done with either technique. It all depends what you expect to look after. They won't give you the same result.
