How Much Does a Mini Tummy Tuck Cost in South Africa?

A mini tummy tuck, also known as a partial abdominoplasty, is a refined cosmetic surgery procedure designed to remove excess skin and tighten the lower abdominal area. For patients who don’t need a full tummy tuck, this option offers a more targeted and less invasive solution with a faster recovery time.
