Tummy tuck surgery\u2014also known as an abdominoplasty\u2014is a customizable surgery that Dr. Sajan adjusts for your body and needs. The two most common types of a tummy tuck are a full or standard tummy tuck and a mini tummy tuck. Let\u2019s take a look at the frequently asked question, \u201cWhat are the differences between a regular tummy tuck and a mini tummy tuck?\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The first major difference between a regular tummy tuck and a mini one is the size of the incision. A full tummy tuck generally consists of a hip-to-hip incision. This is the most common incision and does not usually vary too much in length. However, a mini tummy tuck incision can differ in length. It can extend anywhere from a few inches up to around eight inches in length. Though, it is shorter than a full hip-to-hip incision.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Next, a standard tummy tuck will reposition the belly button to address the new contours of the abdomen. A mini tummy tuck does not reposition the belly button and only addresses structures below it. Similarly, a mini tummy tuck will only perform muscle plication on the lower abdominal muscles. However, it is not often included in the mini version.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
