Get Rid of Muffin Top with Tummy Nipntuck
March 28th, 2012
The Oxford English dictionary was recently updated with about 900 new words. According to the Chicago Tribune, Muffin Top is one of the new entries and it is defined as a protuberance of flesh above the waistband.
Tummy tuck surgery or abdominoplasty reduces the abdominal protrusion that is affectionately called muffin top. This Tummy Nipntuck uses liposuction, surgical skin removal, and/or muscle tightening to achieve a flatter stomach. People develop protruding abdomens due to extra skin, fat and weakened muscles. The cause is often due to pregnancy and/or fluctuations of weight and many patients turn to tummy tuck surgery to give them a more natural appearance.

Mini Nipntuck Tummy-tuck
June 16th, 2011
A mini-tummy tuck is a procedure especially designed for women who do not need the more extensive muscle repair of a full tummy tuck. The mini-nipntuck takes advantage of the less invasive liposuction technique to decrease the “muffin top†bulge. Secondly, excision of extra skin helps to smooth out the stomach, improving the appearance of a protruding tummy. Women with bothersome C-section scars also benefit from this new specialized procedure.
Recovery is much quicker than that of a traditional abdominoplasty and patients usually resume their normal activities within three to five days.
