Getting a tummy tuck, or any surgery for that matter, includes a recovery period. If you're like most people who are considering tummy tuck surgery, you may be a little worried about the recovery experience. You will probably have a lot of questions going through your mind, like:

Patients who qualify for abdominoplasty frequently inquire about mini tummy tucks due to the shorter recovery time and the possibility of a smaller incision scar.
