MINI TUMMY TUCK LA JOLLA, CA | DANIEL BROWN MD

UNDERSTANDING MINI TUMMY TUCK PROCEDURE

A mini tummy tuck, or partial abdominoplasty, is a specialized body
contouring procedure designed to address excess skin and muscle laxity
in the lower abdominal region. This targeted surgical technique
focuses on improving the appearance below the belly button, offering
patients a more refined and toned stomach profile.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR MINI TUMMY TUCK

Candidates for this procedure typically maintain a healthy lifestyle
but struggle with stubborn lower abdominal concerns. Ideal patients
should:

 	* Be within close range of their ideal body weight
	* Maintain a stable weight
	* Be a non-smoker
	* Have realistic expectations for surgical outcomes

PROCEDURE DETAILS

During a mini tummy tuck, Dr. Brown makes a small, strategically
placed incision in the pubic bone region. This approach ensures
minimal scarring that can be easily concealed by undergarments. The
procedure may include liposuction to remove stubborn fat deposits and
sculpt the lower abdomen.

MINI TUMMY TUCK VS. FULL ABDOMINOPLASTY

Unlike a full tummy tuck, a mini tummy tuck addresses only the lower
abdominal area. Patients with significant skin laxity above the belly
button might be better suited to a full abdominoplasty. Dr. Brown
carefully evaluates each patient's unique anatomy to recommend the
most appropriate procedure.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Recovery from a mini tummy tuck is typically shorter compared to a
full abdominoplasty. Patients can usually return to work within one to
two weeks and resume light activities after a few days. Strenuous
exercise should be avoided for at least three to four weeks.

MAINTAINING YOUR RESULTS

To preserve the outcomes of a mini tummy tuck, patients should
maintain a stable weight through consistent diet and exercise. Future
pregnancies may impact surgical results, so timing the procedure is an
important consideration.

CONSULTATION PROCESS

During the initial consultation, Dr. Brown conducts a comprehensive
evaluation, including a physical examination and discussion of the
patient's aesthetic goals. This personalized approach ensures a
tailored treatment plan that addresses individual needs.

MINI TUMMY TUCK LA JOLLA, CA | PRIME PLASTIC SURGERY: ROBERT SINGER,
M.D.

UNDERSTANDING MINI TUMMY TUCK IN LA JOLLA

Prime Plastic Surgery offers a specialized mini tummy tuck procedure
designed for San Diego patients seeking targeted abdominal contouring.
This surgical body contouring technique addresses excess fat and loose
skin in the lower abdomen, providing an effective solution for
patients with moderate aesthetic concerns.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

The mini tummy tuck is a less invasive surgical option compared to a
traditional abdominoplasty. Key characteristics include:

 	* Shorter surgical duration (1-2 hours)
	* Small incision above the pubic area
	* Minimal skin repositioning
	* Optional liposuction for enhanced contouring
	* Suitable for both men and women

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

During the mini tummy tuck, Prime Plastic Surgery's surgeons carefully
make a small incision directly above the pubic region. The surgical
team removes loose skin and may perform liposuction to eliminate
excess fat. Unlike a full tummy tuck, the belly button remains in its
original position, reducing surgical complexity.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can anticipate a shorter recovery period compared to
traditional tummy tuck procedures. Typical recovery milestones
include:

 	* 2-3 days of restricted movement
	* Compression garment wear for 2-3 weeks
	* Return to work within 1-2 weeks
	* Light activities resumable after 2-3 days
	* Full recovery and strenuous activities after one month

PATIENT POSITIONING AND COMFORT

Post-surgical positioning is crucial for patient comfort and healing.
Patients should expect to be slightly hunched over during the first
week, with recommended sleeping positions in a recliner or with
pillows supporting an "L" formation.
