A ‘tummy tuck’ is one of the most well-known surgical procedures available, with many people opting for the surgery to achieve a desired stomach area. What may not be commonly known is the various types of ‘tummy tuck’, or Abdominoplasty, available to clients depending on their needs.

Here, we’ll break down the four methods of Abdominoplasty surgery available at EF MEDISPA.

Abdominoplasty Surgery to Achieve Your Goals

Everybody has different goals when it comes to undergoing any form of cosmetic surgery, but when it comes to Abdominoplasty surgery, the common objective is to achieve a flatter, more defined stomach that diet and exercise alone has struggled to overcome. However, there are four main types of Abdominoplasty surgery available depending on your needs.

Full AbdominoplastyAbdomioplasty Blog Image

If you have a lot of excess skin in the stomach area, a full Abdominoplasty would usually be recommended for the most optimum results. This could be for a situation where you have had dramatic weight-loss or the skin has lost its elasticity over time. During full Abdominoplasty, the surgeon will make a minor incision to the abdomen to remove any excess skin and fat, whilst also realigning the abdominal muscles and separating the connective tissues around the belly button for its repositioning.

Mini Abdominoplasty

Opposite to a full surgery, a mini Abdominoplasty is usually recommended in cases where a client has minor excess skin. For this procedure, a much smaller incision point is made than with a full surgery, across the tummy line that will enable the easy removal of the small amount of excess skin and fat.

Endoscopic Abdominoplasty

The endoscopic method of Abdominoplasty is an effective technique to help tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall and is usually offered if this is the only objective, without the need to remove excess fat or skin, whilst providing minimal scarring.

Extended Abdominoplasty

An extended Abdominoplasty is an effective body-contouring treatment. Otherwise known as ‘Fleur De Lis Abdominoplasty’, this method will eliminate excess fat and skin on the stomach by the use of vertical and horizontal incision to provide the desired results. Expanding from a full Abdominoplasty, the surgeon removes excess skin from the client’s sides which will address the ‘love handles’.
