• Abdominoplasty. With a long suprapubic incision, a large flap of skin and fat is
raised and undermined to the costal margin. The flap is then pulled downward and
the excess tissue is excised. Repositioning of the umbilicus through the flap is
required. There are some variations in placement and design of the scar, but the
incision is generally placed low for cosmesis.
• Mini-abdominoplasty. This can be performed for excess tissue that lies below the
umbilicus. As it involves only modest trimming with a smaller scar and obviates the
need to reposition the umbilicus, it is a less extensive procedure overall but probably
less effective too.
