Mini Tummy Tuck Owings Mills, MD | Steven J. Rottman, MD Plastic Surgery

Understanding Mini Tummy Tuck Surgery in Baltimore, Maryland

Belly fat on the lower section of the abdomen can be challenging to eliminate through diet and exercise. Double board-certified and fellowship-trained plastic surgeon Dr. Steven J. Rottman offers mini tummy tucks to help Baltimore, MD residents achieve a toned lower midsection.

What is Mini Tummy Tuck Surgery?

Unlike a full tummy tuck that addresses the entire abdominal area, a mini tummy tuck focuses specifically on fat located below the belly button. The procedure involves a less extensive surgical approach with a smaller, less visible scar.

Benefits of Mini Tummy Tuck Surgery

• Targeted fat and skin removal in lower abdominal region
• Smaller surgical incision compared to traditional tummy tuck
• Shorter recovery period
• Less invasive surgical technique

Surgical Procedure Details

Dr. Rottman performs mini tummy tuck surgery by making a single incision along or just above the pubic area. During the procedure, unwanted fat is removed, and muscles may be tightened through precise suturing techniques.

Candidacy for Mini Tummy Tuck

Ideal candidates for mini tummy tuck surgery should be close to their ideal body weight and have localized fat deposits in the lower abdominal region. The procedure is not recommended as a weight loss solution or for patients planning future pregnancies.

Recovery and Expectations

Although less extensive than a full tummy tuck, the procedure requires careful post-surgical care. Patients can expect initial healing within four weeks, during which activity restrictions and wearing a compression garment are recommended.
