Mini Tummy Tuck vs. Tummy Tuck 360: Which Procedure Is Right for Me?
Tummy troubles? If your belly bulge is keeping from wearing a bikini with confidence this summer, come see us at Restora Austin Plastic Surgery Centre. A tummy tuck can tighten up your middle, restoring the flat, tight abdomen of your pre-baby days. Many women find their bodies are better after a tummy tuck than they ever were before, even before they had children.
We offer a variety of tummy tuck options including our mini tummy tuck, our traditional tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), and our signature Tummy Tuck 360. Which option is best for you? Come in for a consultation to get personalized recommendations or keep reading to learn more about each option.
Mini Tummy Tuck- When You Need a Little Extra Help
You eat right and you exercise, but you struggle to get rid of your belly bulge. It isn’t big, but you do have a little excess skin below your belly button. If this sounds like you, ask us about our mini tummy tuck. This procedures removes fat and a little excess skin. We also perform SAFELipo or VASER liposuction to sculpt and contour the area. This procedure only works on patients with minimal excess skin, all located below the belly button. If you’ve had babies, this procedure likely isn’t a good fit for you. Good skin quality is essential for a successful result.
Let’s take a quick look at the benefits of a mini tummy tuck:
- Shorter incision (similar in length to a C-section scar)
- No scar around the belly button
- Shorter recovery
Traditional Tummy Tuck- Restore a Tight, Flat Abdomen After Pregnancy or Weight Loss
Get your flat tummy back with a traditional tummy tuck. This procedure removes excess skin and fat and tightens muscles, providing results to the entire abdomen. This procedure is ideal for patients with skin laxity, excess skin, stretch marks, stretched out abdominal muscles, and stubborn fat pockets. We pair our traditional tummy tuck with SAFELipo to shape and contour your figure.
What are the benefits of a traditional tummy tuck? Find out below!
- Fewer stretch marks- All stretch marks below the belly button are removed.
- Dramatic change to the abdomen
- Ideal choice for restoring the body after weight loss and/or pregnancy
Tummy Tuck 360- Our Most Dramatic Transformation
We created the Tummy Tuck 360 to provide our patients with a full front-to-back transformation. This procedure is so successful that we like to call it our “shrink-wrap procedure”. It removes fat and skin, like in a traditional tummy tuck, but adds in SAFELipo to the back, flanks and sides. With a Tummy Tuck 360, you’ll look as good from the back as you do from the front.
Discover the benefits of the Tummy Tuck 360:
- Our most dramatic abdominal transformation
- See results on your tummy, sides, and back.
- Truly restores a pre-pregnancy appearance
- 360-degree transformation
