Mini Tummy Tuck
St. Louis

After child rearing, weight fluctuations, or genetics, your lower tummy skin may not be as taut as you would like. You may feel good about your weight and body overall but may have extra skin accumulated low on the belly. Many women notice excess tissue or stretch marks below the belly button when wearing panties, a bikini, or while doing planks. A mini tummy tuck eliminates excess skin and reconnects abdominal muscles that have separated to give you a tighter, more sculpted tummy, giving you confidence both in and out of clothing.

What You Can Expect

Real Results

Real Artistic Outcomes

A mini tummy tuck operation can renew your confidence in yourself and make you look as good as you feel. Excess skin below the belly button is removed through an easily hidden, small incision low on the abdomen. The results obtained from a mini tummy tuck can far exceed non-surgical methods of body sculpting. Many patients are encouraged by the results Dr. Gurley is able to achieve.
