48-year-old female 1 year after revision tummy tuck using a mini abdominoplasty approach to address the lower abdominal skin excess. Additionally, she had liposuction; all this together has greatly improved her contour and confidence.

Mini Abdominoplasty can be performed under local, general anesthesia, or intravenous sedation. The operation typically involves a single incision made horizontally across the lower abdomen, just above the pubic area. Through this incision, Dr. Hayes can remove excess skin and fat, repairing weakened or separated muscles to create a firmer and flatter abdominal profile. The surrounding skin is then re-stretched and sutured into its new position, achieving a tighter and more toned appearance.
