Abdominoplasty – For a new body feeling
A tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fatty tissue from the abdominal area. In addition, abdominal muscle laxity can be corrected to achieve a firmer and more defined midsection. Many patients choose this procedure after pregnancy, significant weight loss, or age-related changes to regain a more positive body image.
Who is a mini tummy tuck suitable for?
A mini tummy tuck is a good option if you're bothered by sagging skin in the lower abdomen that doesn't go away with exercise or diet. Typical causes include pregnancy, mild to moderate weight loss, or age-related loss of skin elasticity.
Since this procedure does not involve muscle tightening or repositioning the navel, mini abdominoplasty is particularly suitable for patients who only want a manageable procedure and want to return to everyday life as quickly as possible.
For a lasting, beautiful result, the procedure should be performed after family planning has been completed and when the weight is stable.
Advantages of mini tummy tuck
-
Gentle procedure: No muscle tightening, no relocation of the navel
-
Shorter scars: Small skin incision above the pubic area, usually well covered by underwear
-
Fast recovery: Less downtime, often performed on an outpatient basis
-
Fewer risks: Usually possible under local anesthesia
-
Natural result: smooth lower abdomen with harmonious transition to the rest of the abdominal region
Procedure of the mini tummy tuck in Leipzig
Preparation
During a personal consultation in Leipzig, Dr. Graß will discuss with you whether mini-abdominoplasty is the right procedure for your needs. Together, you will discuss your expectations, any pre-existing medical conditions, and the optimal timing for the procedure. As with any surgery, blood-thinning medications should be discontinued in good time, and nicotine should be avoided.
The operation
A mini tummy tuck is usually performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. Dr. Graß makes a fine incision above the pubic area, removes excess skin, and reshapes the tissue. Muscle tightening is usually not necessary.
The skin will be sutured without tension, and you'll be given a special compression garment. After a short recovery period, you can go home and continue your recovery.
Aftercare
Many of our patients are able to return to social activities after just one to two days. However, sports and physical exertion should be avoided for about four weeks. The compression garment supports healing and should be worn day and night.
Dr. Graß will provide you with regular follow-up appointments in Leipzig and will be available to answer any questions you may have.
Risks and security
Compared to traditional abdominoplasty, a mini tummy tuck is less risky because it is less intrusive. However, temporary swelling, bruising, or tightness may occur. Thanks to our many years of experience and the highest hygiene standards at our partner clinic in Leipzig, we offer you maximum safety.
With careful scar care, calm aftercare and regular check-ups, we ensure that you can be satisfied with the result in the long term.
