Mini Tummy Tuck Bundle
What's the Tummy Tuck recovery experience?
A tummy tuck (a.k.a. “abdominoplasty") is a cosmetic surgical procedure to improve the shape and appearance of the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat from the abdomen. A "mini tummy tuck" differs from a full tummy tuck in that the incision created during a mini tummy tuck is shorter and the goal of the procedure is to tighten only the skin and muscle of the lower belly, below the belly button. For people who are only looking to improve or correct the appearance of the lower abdomen, the mini tummy tuck can be a great option, especially if their upper abdominal muscles are already in good shape.
Generally, it takes about 6 weeks to recover from tummy tuck surgery. Your surgeon or surgery center will likely give you an abdominal binder to help avoid fluid buildup and support your abdomen.
When you get a tummy tuck, you are also likely to experience:
- fluid drainage (collected with JP drains)
- localized pain at incisions
- swelling
- bruising
- general discomfort
- hot flashes
- reduced mobility & independence
