Mini-abdominoplasty, or mini tummy tuck, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen. It tightens underlying muscles for a smoother, firmer abdominal contour, ideal for patients with mild sagging below the navel.
Mini abdominoplasty in Dubai is a surgical contouring procedure developed to tighten and refine the lower abdominal area. It focuses on removing excess skin and fat below the belly button, offering a smoother and firmer appearance without the extent of a full tummy tuck.
This procedure is ideal for individuals who have a small amount of loose skin or mild muscle laxity in the lower abdomen—often after pregnancy or localized weight changes—yet do not require a full abdominoplasty. Dr. Sanjay applies advanced surgical techniques to achieve subtle yet effective improvements, enhancing your body’s natural curves while minimizing downtime and scarring.
Whether your goal is to improve the lower belly contour or reduce bulging that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise, mini abdominoplasty can provide a tailored solution with results that boost confidence and body proportion.

Mini abdominoplasty is a targeted surgical procedure designed to reshape the lower abdomen. Here’s an overview of the process:
Your journey begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Sanjay. During this session, your medical history, abdominal condition, and cosmetic goals are discussed to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for mini abdominoplasty.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure complete comfort throughout the surgery.
A small incision is made in the lower abdomen, typically just above the pubic area. Through this incision, excess skin and localized fat are removed to achieve a flatter and firmer lower belly contour.
If necessary, underlying abdominal muscles are tightened to strengthen the core and further improve contour
After the desired corrections are made, the incision is closed with sutures. The incision is placed strategically to minimize visible scarring and support a smooth healing process.
Proper preparation plays a key role in achieving safe and optimal surgical outcomes. Patients are advised to follow these preparation steps:
Fasting Instructions: Detailed fasting instructions will be provided when general anesthesia is planned.
The mini abdominoplasty procedure is performed in a sterile surgical facility with careful attention to detail:
General anesthesia is administered to ensure you remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the surgery.
Through a small, discreet incision, excess skin and fat are carefully removed and the lower abdominal muscles are tightened as needed to achieve a smoother contour.
Once the desired results are achieved, the incisions are closed precisely using sutures that promote optimal healing and minimize scarring.
Proper post-operative care is important for healing and achieving the best results. Patients are advised to:
Follow-Up Visits: Scheduled follow-ups allow Dr. Sanjay to monitor healing and ensure recovery is progressing smoothly.
Recovery after mini abdominoplasty varies between individuals, but the general timeline includes:
You may experience mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which are common in the early stages. Light walking is encouraged to promote healing.
Swelling begins to subside and patients can usually resume gentle daily activities. Strenuous exercise should continue to be avoided.
Complete recovery may take three to six months, as your body fully adjusts to its new shape and any residual swelling gradually resolves. Final results will continue to improve over time, revealing a firmer and more refined lower abdominal contour.
