A scarless tummy tuck is a partial abdominoplasty. This procedure is done by a cosmetic surgeon and tummy tuck scars will be smaller and less visible. The incision that’s made is much smaller than a full abdominoplasty incision. The kinds of candidates that are suited for a scarless tummy tuck are those who lost elasticity in their abdomen and can’t improve it with diet and exercise. This is usually due to pregnancy or aging. It’s recommended to have this procedure done if the area that needs improved is in the lower abdomen and the wall of your abdomen doesn’t protrude a lot. The surgeon will remove the excess fat and skin and tightens up the muscles so you will have the firm look you want.


A scarless tummy tuck only takes a few hours so the surgical risk for patients is lower. Smoking should be stopped at least two weeks before surgery because it can higher the risks of complications. Your surgeon will give you guidelines on how to prepare for the surgery. General anesthetic or a local anesthetic with an added sedative can be used. This type of tummy tuck is not as extensive as a full tummy tuck so liposuction might also be done especially if there’s excessive fat. The incision is put in the small area directly above the pubis and the skin flap is stretched down. The skin is tightened after the fat is removed and than the skin flap is stitched back into place. The belly button isn’t removed during this procedure. Only a small scar remains above the pubic area which can be concealed with underwear.

The hospital stay is very short after a scarless tummy tuck. Usually patients can go home the same day they have the surgery performed. You can expect some pain, tenderness, swelling and bruising that may last up to six weeks. It may be possible to do light activities in a few days but full recovery could take a whole month. Stitches are removed approximately 10 days after a scarless tummy tuck. Activity needs to be increased to prevent blood clots and help you recover faster. It’s important to follow your surgeon’s orders and keep every appointment to make sure everything is fine.
