Mini Tummy Tuck Norwich, CT | Dr. Richard Martin

Understanding Mini Tummy Tuck Procedures

A mini tummy tuck is a targeted body contouring procedure designed to address localized abdominal concerns. This surgical technique focuses on removing excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen, providing patients with a more refined and toned appearance.

Ideal Candidates for Mini Abdominoplasty

Patients considering a mini tummy tuck typically exhibit the following characteristics:

• Relatively stable body weight
• Minimal to moderate skin laxity below the belly button
• Localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
• Good overall health and realistic aesthetic expectations

Surgical Procedure Details

Dr. Richard Martin performs mini tummy tuck procedures using a small incision near the pubic region. The surgery involves precise fat removal, muscle tightening, and skin contouring to achieve optimal aesthetic results.

Procedure Duration and Technique

The mini tummy tuck typically takes one to three hours, depending on individual patient requirements. The procedure is conducted under anesthesia, with careful attention to minimizing scarring and maximizing aesthetic outcomes.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect a relatively quick recovery compared to traditional abdominoplasty. Most individuals return to work within five days and observe significant improvements in abdominal contour within weeks of the procedure.

Long-Term Maintenance

Results from a mini tummy tuck are long-lasting when maintained through consistent diet and exercise. Factors such as significant weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and aging may impact the procedure's long-term aesthetic results.
