Treatment Analysis:
Most commonly known as a Tummy Tuck, this treatment is designed to combat stubborn areas of stretched and sagging skin as well as lower belly fat. By using a modified version of the Tummy Tuck, the surgeon is able to remove excess, saggy skin to restore a flatter and slimmer figure. In certain cases the doctor is also able to tighten the abdominal muscles.
Ideal Candidate:
This treatment is generally intended for patients who are not candidates for a full abdominoplasty because they only have a small area of abdominal fat and moderate skin laxity despite weight loss efforts. Instead such individuals will turn to a mini tummy tuck to regain a slimmer silhouette and re-instill confidence when it comes to wearing bathing suits and tight clothes.
