Introduction
About the Mini Tummy Tuck
Loving your body is a worthy goal for everyone, but it’s no easy feat. Many things can change the look of your stomach, including weight loss, aging, and childbirth. A stomach with sagging, stretched skin can make it difficult to feel confident in your favorite outfits and swimsuits. We understand the significant impact that these concerns can have on your day-to-day life. The mini tummy tuck is a way to remove loose skin and stubborn fat from the lower stomach without the extensiveness of the traditional tummy tuck. It’s an ideal solution for helping you look and feel your best in every situation, recapturing the vibrant energy and confidence that make you unique.

Choosing cosmetic surgery is always a deeply personal choice, and we understand the feelings that can arise from it. Your first step is considering whether the mini tummy tuck is a good fit for your goals. You have options when it comes to changing your body, and the mini tummy tuck is one among a few. You may be a good fit for the mini tummy tuck if you identify with the following:
Reduce Stubborn Fat
The stomach is one of the most difficult areas in which to try and lose fat. If you carry stubborn fat here and it impacts your confidence, clothing fit, comfort, and more, a mini tummy tuck can help.
Get Rid of Loose Skin
Tummy tucks of any kind are ideal for getting rid of stretched, loose skin hanging from the stomach. The mini tummy tuck can create a slimmer, more contoured look to the lower stomach and groin area.
Improve Confidence
Stomach fat and loose skin can make it difficult to feel confident, especially in certain types of clothing. The mini tummy tuck can improve the overall abdominal appearance so you love your body in every situation.
Benefits of a Mini Tummy Tuck
How can we help you feel great about your decision?
Imagine how the mini tummy tuck could help you love yourself. The mini tummy tuck has many benefits, and Dr. Tehrani can help you learn more about how it can fit your lifestyle and goals. Here are just a few.
Shorter Downtime
The mini tummy tuck is a less invasive version of the traditional tummy tuck, meaning you can get back to your schedule sooner. If you want to avoid extensive recovery, the mini tummy tuck is a great option.
Smaller Incisions
The mini tummy tuck uses smaller incisions made across the bikini line so any residual scarring can be easily concealed in clothing. This means more discreet results.
Easier Recovery
The mini tummy tuck only removes skin and stubborn fat, which can mean an easier recovery than a traditional tummy tuck.

- Avoid taking blood thinners, anti-inflammatories, and herbal supplements that increase bleeding. You may need to adjust your medication regimen according to Dr. Tehrani’s instructions.
- Maintain a stable weight. Significant changes in your weight can impact your surgical plan – small changes to your weight are normal, but make sure to live a healthy and active lifestyle to keep your weight stable.
- Stop smoking as soon as possible before your procedure. Avoid smoking afterward, as well, since nicotine can impair healing.
- Arrange for transportation to and from surgery – you’ll be unable to drive home. Also, arrange for a responsible adult to stay with you for the first 24 hours.
Mini Tummy Tuck
The mini tummy tuck is designed to remove stubborn fat and loose skin from the area below the belly button, creating a more contoured and defined look. It doesn’t tighten the underlying abdominal muscles but is ideal if you have a protruding lower stomach.
Traditional Tummy Tuck
The traditional tummy tuck removes stubborn fat and loose skin from the whole abdomen. It also tightens the underlying abdominal muscles if they’re separated or weakened. The treatment area extends above the belly button and even toward the hips and sides.
Mini Tummy Tuck Recovery
Recovery is the most important part of your mini tummy tuck surgery. Dr. Tehrani will supply you with a compression garment that you should wear as much as possible to manage swelling and promote circulation. You’ll check in with our team regularly to assess your progress and ensure your results are emerging as planned. For the first 4-6 weeks, avoid strenuous activity – instead, take light walks around the house to promote blood flow and prevent complications. Most importantly, focus on resting and taking pain medications according to instructions.
After 4-6 weeks, you’ll begin to see the full impact of your results, with a slimmer, more defined lower stomach.
With a dedicated, active lifestyle, you can enjoy your confidence-boosting results for years to come.
