Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Mini and Full Abdominoplasty Excising Redundant Skin, Stretch Marks, and Repairing Separated Rectus Abdominis Muscle Fascia
Overview of Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
When pregnancy, childbirth, or major weight loss leaves the abdominal skin severely stretched with striae (stretch marks) and diastasis recti (separation of the six-pack abdominal muscles), liposuction alone cannot tighten the redundant skin envelope. At Soul Plastic Surgery, Abdominoplasty restores a firm, flat abdominal wall.
Mini vs. Full Abdominoplasty
- Mini Abdominoplasty: Indicated when skin laxity and stretch marks are confined below the navel. Excises lower abdominal skin through a low bikini-line incision without relocating the umbilicus.
- Full Abdominoplasty: Indicated when sagging skin, fat, and muscle separation extend across both the upper and lower abdomen. Repairs the full length of the rectus abdominis fascia (corset plication), removes redundant skin and lower stretch marks, and reconstructs a natural, vertically oriented umbilicus.
