Well there are three different forms of tummy tuck surgery namely the Mini tummy tuck, Standard Tummy tuck and the Extended tummy tuck. The decision on which tummy tuck to be performed depends on the amount of fat you have to lose. My friend had her TT last year at Cosmetic Breast Surgery clinic at Ontario, and the doctor suggested Mini tummy tuck.
Apart from this there are further classifications for the tummy tuck like the endoscopic tummy tuck and circumferential tummy tucks. If you want more information on these you can search the web.
1. The Mini Tummy Tuck- sometimes known as the "scarless tummy tuck". It removes a smaller portion of skin, and because the incision is smaller in general.
2. The Standard Tummy Tuck- ideal for men and women who are in good physical health, and who have a sizable portion of loose skin to remove from their midsection.
3. The Extended Tummy Tuck- For patients with a greater amount of loose, sagging skin on their abdomen, as well as on their hips and on the sides of their lower back.
If you are planning to undergo any of the following, better to have medical host like lotusmedicalinternational.com to guide through the whole process. It always pays to be sure and safe.
According to lotusmedicalinternational.com, abdominoplasty or tummy tuck has three types: 1) complete ; 2) partial or mini ; and 3) circumferential. You can always differentiate one from the other through the incision position. Other than that, you can always consult your surgeon and allow him to discuss more with regard to the best surgery that would best fit your needs.
