How big of an incision will I need?
This is individualized based upon the extent of the work needed. Sometimes a \\u201cmini- tummy tuck\\u201d can be performed. LIPOSUCTION is performed and residual loose skin from the lower abdomen is removed through a small incision in the pubic region (4-6 inches long). If the lower muscles of the abdomen need to be tightened, then it can be performed as well through this small incision. Patients with more laxity of the tissues and greater weakness of the muscles require a longer incision to accomplish the surgery.
