What Is An Endoscopic Tummy Tuck?
An endoscopic Tummy Tuck (endoscopic
abdominoplasty) is a form of a mini Tummy Tuck and is best
suited for patients with a protruding abdomen but small
amounts of excess skin. It is far less invasive than a full
Tummy Tuck and has less side effects and complications. No
skin is removed during an endoscopic Tummy Tuck. The surgeon
performs the procedure through several small incisions along
the pubic bone and belly button so scars are hardly visible
or easily concealed. The surgeon uses long slender
instruments (endoscope - small camera attached to small
surgical instruments) to tighten the abdominal muscles and
suture them into place. Liposuction may be used to improve
the contour of the abdomen during the procedure.
