Are you looking for a way to look and feel your best when it comes to your stomach and abs? If so, you should consider looking into how a tummy tuck could help you get the results that you’re looking for. Countless people all across the country have found that their tummy tucks have offered them an improved sense of physical well-being and self-confidence.
However, more than just one type of tummy tuck treatment exists. There are, in fact, three unique variations of tummy tucks—in addition to the standard procedure that is well-known and loved—that can help patients achieve their individual and specific needs.
The standard, full tummy tuck revolves around using an incision along your lower abdomen. Through this incision, excess skin and fat can be removed before repairing and tightening your abdominal area. The standard tuck is an excellent option for those with a moderate amount of excess skin and abdominal concerns that they’d like to remove from their stomach.
The mini tummy tuck follows a similar procedure as the standard tuck described above. However, during this procedure, the incision is far smaller and less noticeable, making it less invasive and less likely to create scarring. The trade-off is that these mini tucks are best for those with just a bit of excess skin and minimal concerns about the look and feel of their abdomen.
Taking a turn back in the other direction, there are also extended tummy tuck procedures that can be performed. As you can assume by the name, this procedure expands upon the standard tuck, offering a solution to larger areas and extents of excessive skin and abdominal concerns.
Finally, there are reverse tummy tucks. This procedure is conducted with an incision above the belly button, as opposed to the other tucks, which are handled through an incision along the lower abdomen. This makes them the preferred option for those looking to deal with loose, excess skin centered around the upper abdomen.
