A mini-abdominoplasty is used to correct problems of the lower abdomen, from the umbilicus to the pubic region. It corrects lower abdominal bulging, weakness of the lower muscle & fascia and localized obesity of this area.

It does not correct loose skin and weakness  above the navel. When combined with liposuctioning, it can correct laxity of the lower abdomen and localized obesity above the umbilicus at the same time.

Some advantages over a full or classical abdominoplasty, are the shorter incision and quicker recovery. When choosing which operation is best for a particular patient, there are several factors to consider. These include the location of the fat and the condition of the skin & muscle.
