Understanding the Differences: Mini Tummy Tuck vs. Full Tummy Tuck

Tummy Tuck: Mini Vs Full 

So, how do you know if you need a mini tummy tuck or a full tummy tuck? It all boils down to the amount of excess skin and fat you have in your abdominal area. If you have a small amount of extra skin and fat below your belly button, a mini tummy tuck might be the way to go. This procedure targets the lower part of your abdomen and is less invasive than a full tummy tuck. 

If you have significant excess skin and muscle separation both above and below your belly button, a full tummy tuck is likely more suitable. This comprehensive procedure addresses the entire abdominal area, resulting in a more dramatic transformation. 

During your consultation with Dr. Martin, he will assess your individual needs and goals to determine the most appropriate tummy tuck for you. Remember, the goal of both procedures is to create a more trim and smooth abdominal profile. 

Whether you opt for a mini or a full tummy tuck, choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Justin Martin is crucial to ensuring a safe and successful outcome. Trust your instincts and consult with a qualified professional to achieve the results you desire!
