As a talented Westchester County tummy tuck surgeon, Dr. Greenwald is also pleased to provide mini-tummy tuck, also known as mini-abdominoplasty. A mini-abdominoplasty is a variation of the more traditional abdominoplasty procedure. As its name implies, it is a mini version of a full abdominoplasty. A mini-abdominoplasty is meant to address excess skin and fat typically located below the umbilicus. Liposuction or Smartlipo may also be performed in conjunction with a mini tummy tuck. Repair of the abdominal musculature is performed when indicated.
Mini tummy tucks are routinely performed by Dr. Greenwald at his operating facility. Recovery from a mini tummy tuck or mini abdominoplasty is significantly shorter than with a traditional tummy tuck. In addition, the scar is typically much shorter than with a standard operation. Not every patient wants or needs a full abdominoplasty, schedule your consultation with Dr. Greenwald to see if a mini-tummy tuck or mini-abdominoplasty is for you.
Abdominoplasty and tummy tuck surgery was performed more than 170,000 times in 2006. Mini tummy tuck and abdominoplasty surgery are routinely performed in Dr. Greenwald’s outpatient center.
