I am planning on getting a mini tummy tuck in Sept. I would like to hear some insight from anyone who has had this procedure. I am excited but nervous at the same time. Basically I would like to know...
Was the recovery very painful?
What was the duration of recovery?
How many days/weeks before swelling went away and saw results?
Most importantly, are you happy with results?
I have done mesotherapy twice within 1 year (6 session each time) and not satisfied with results. I still have sagging skin in lower belly even after meso, diet and excersise.
Thank you

Hello.

This is the first time I post here. I'm from Mexico,living in Mexico Ciy and 48 years old.
I had a mini tuck three years ago, along with a facelift and ba.
My mini tuck has been the best thing I ever did. I dance and exercise.I'm pretty slim, but that small tummy below my navel was driving me crazy.

My mini tummy tuck did not hurt. I took care of myself for two weeks,began exercising at four weeks.
I had only 300 cc's lipoed in tummy and around waist.It looks wonderful. The doctor used the same incisions I had from my two c-section to do the mini-tuck. Scar fades pretty well after eight months to a year.But mini tummy tuck only works if the sagging is located below the navel.
Hope this helps.
Also remember that scaring and pain endurance is unique in every person.
Hope this helps.
