The price of a mini tummy tuck is EUR 2,200 - 2,400 plus EUR 200 for the anaesthetic and EUR for the elastic garment, which needs to be worn after surgery.
This price includes every aspect of surgery, hospital stay, consultation and all necessary medication.
All patients are required to arrive in Budapest the day before surgery takes place. It is important that patients do not eat or drink (not even water!!!) from midnight before surgery. A Perfect Contours representative will pick you up from your hotel and take you to the clinic where you will be shown to your room and fill in the required medical and consent forms. The consultation with the surgeon will then take place. Every aspect of the surgical procedure will be explained to you and any questions you might have will be answered. You will also have a consultation with the aneasthetist after which you will be able to relax in your room until surgery. Family members and friends are able to stay with you until you are taken into surgery. Approximately half an hour before surgery a sedative will be administered to relax you after which you will be taken through to surgery.
In a mini tummy tuck surgery, only the lower abdominal area below the belly button is involved. In this procedure the belly button is not touched. The incision is placed fairly low, just above the pubic hairline and runs between the hip bones. The scar is permanent, but fades over time. A mini tummy tuck is often perrformed together with liposuction on the upper abdominal area.
The recovery time after a mini tummy tuck is slightly faster than after a full tummy tuck. The patient stays in hospital 1 – 2 nights and usually gets up and moves about the day of surgery. The patient can go back to work 1 – 2 weeks after surgery. Light exercise is possible after three weeks but more strenuous exercise can only be undertaken six weeks after surgery.
