A hybrid tummy tuck is also known as hybrid abdominoplasty. It is similar to a full abdominoplasty but it requires a smaller incision much like a mini tummy tuck. Using a smaller incision as well as a smaller amount of lower abdomen skin removal, the abdominal skin of the patient is tightened. Plus, any separated muscles that go all the way up to the sternum can be repaired thanks to endoscopic tightening of the fascia above the navel.
