Introduction
About the Hybrid Tummy Tuck
Pregnancy, weight loss, and aging can leave you feeling less than satisfied when you look at your stomach in the mirror. If your stomach causes you to avoid outfits or activities you used to love, you’re not alone. Loving your body can be a long, arduous journey. Choosing cosmetic surgery can be daunting, but there are many new techniques that can avoid extensive downtimes and risks. The hybrid tummy tuck is a procedure that combines the minimal incision of a mini tummy tuck with the muscle tightening of the traditional tummy tuck, cutting down on recovery and enhancing your results. If you’re looking for a way to transform your figure and feel like your best self, we can help.

Everyone brings a variety of factors to their decision to undergo cosmetic surgery. Your first step is determining if the hybrid tummy tuck is right for you. You have a few different options for transforming your confidence, and the hybrid tummy tuck is only one. You may be a good fit for a hybrid tummy tuck if you identify with the following:
Tighten Abdominal Muscles
Separated or weakened abdominal muscles can’t be corrected through exercise – they need to be surgically repaired. Tightening these muscles through a hybrid tummy tuck can provide better strength and support.
Limit Downtime
The goal of the hybrid tummy tuck is to reduce downtime by including some of the minimally-invasive techniques of the mini tummy tuck.
Remove Loose Skin
Loose skin can be removed during a hybrid tummy tuck to alleviate hygiene issues and improve your confidence.
Remove Stubborn Fat
Fat in the lower stomach is one of the most difficult cosmetic concerns to treat. The hybrid tummy tuck creates a slimmer, more contoured appearance.
Benefits of the Hybrid Tummy Tuck
How can we help you feel great about your decision?
Imagine how a hybrid tummy tuck can bring about the change you’ve been hoping for. The hybrid tummy tuck offers many benefits, and Dr. Tehrani will help you learn more during a consultation. Here are some of the top benefits.
Strengthen Your Core
Stretched and separated abdominal muscles can create symptoms like lower back pain, incontinence, and more. By repairing these muscles, you can alleviate uncomfortable symptoms.
Improve Clothing Fit
Sagging skin and stubborn fat can make it difficult to find clothing that fits. The hybrid tummy tuck can slim your waist, creating a better proportion between your upper and lower body.
Enhance Confidence
A hybrid tummy tuck can help you feel more confident overall. When you don’t have to worry about how your stomach looks, you can live in the moment when wearing certain outfits or nothing at all.

Preparation is key to getting good results from cosmetic surgery. During your consultation with Dr. Tehrani, you’ll discuss important preparation steps such as:
- Avoid blood-thinning and anti-inflammatory medications. These can increase bleeding and impact the safety of your procedure. You may also need to adjust your prescription medications ahead of surgery.
- Stop smoking. Nicotine can hamper your ability to heal, so avoid smoking or nicotine use before and after your surgery.
- Arrange for travel. You’ll need transportation to and from your surgery, as well as a trusted adult to stay with you during the first 24 hours.
- Maintain a stable weight. Natural weight fluctuations are inevitable, but you should take steps to stay within 30 pounds of your ideal weight.
Hybrid Tummy Tuck
The hybrid tummy tuck combines the minimal incision of the mini tummy tuck with the muscle tightening of the traditional tummy tuck. It offers the best of both worlds but may be limited in what it can do. It’s more targeted toward the lower abdomen rather than the entire lower trunk.
Traditional Tummy Tuck
A traditional tummy tuck is a comprehensive solution that rejuvenates the whole stomach, from the pelvic area to just below the ribs. It tightens abdominal muscles, excises extra skin, and removes stubborn fat. It can leave a larger scar across the pelvis than the mini and hybrid tummy tucks.
Hybrid Tummy Tuck Recovery
What Can I Expect?
Recovery is the most important part of your cosmetic journey and shouldn’t be rushed. After your surgery, you’ll need to wear a compression garment as much as possible for the first several weeks. This helps prevent fluid buildup and supports circulation. You may also have drains put in place. You’ll follow up with our team to have sutures removed and oversee your recovery. You’ll likely be able to return to work within 1-2 weeks but should avoid strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks. Make sure to take light walks around the house to keep your blood moving. Dr. Tehrani will give you pain medications – take these according to instructions so you can rest. It can take six months or more for any residual swelling to go away and for your final results to emerge.
You can expect to feel more like yourself with a slimmer, more defined lower stomach and enhanced confidence.
