What is the S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck?
The traditional tummy tuck has long been the go-to solution for those bothered by excess abdominal skin, stubborn fat, or separated muscles, often due to pregnancy, genetics, or weight changes. However, for individuals seeking noticeable, natural-looking improvements without opting for a traditional invasive procedure, Defyne now offers a minimally invasive alternative: the S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck. This innovative, no-cut technique not only flattens the abdomen but also targets back rolls, creating an enhanced projection of the breasts and buttocks.
Through our Safe Minimally-invasive Advanced Rejuvenation Technique (S.M.A.R.T.), the procedure typically includes liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, and upper back, along with skin tightening using radiofrequency methods. By eliminating up to 11 pounds of fat, tightening skin, and addressing muscle separation with well-conceived incisions, we provide a powerful, scar-free body-contouring solution.

Signature Approach
S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck
Overview:
The S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck is an innovative, minimally invasive alternative to a traditional tummy tuck, designed for those who are ideal candidates. Using a specialized approach, this procedure sculpts and refines the midsection, helping patients achieve a natural-looking, contoured figure without the need for extensive surgery.
Benefits:
Minimally invasive with little downtime, customized to each patient’s unique body and goals, it delivers noticeable, natural-looking results and faster recovery compared to traditional tummy tuck surgery.
Considerations:
While the S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck is an excellent option for many, those with significant excess skin or fat may benefit more from a traditional tummy tuck. A consultation with a board-certified surgeon will help determine the best approach for your body and goals.
Traditional Approach
Tummy Tuck Surgery
Overview:
A traditional tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying muscles for a firmer, more sculpted midsection. The procedure involves carefully placed incisions hidden below the bikini line, often repositioning the belly button for a natural appearance.
Benefits:
Ideal for individuals with significant skin laxity and stretch marks, it creates a flatter, more toned abdominal contour and delivers long-lasting, transformative results.
Considerations:
As a more invasive procedure, a tummy tuck requires general anesthesia, a well-placed incision that remains hidden under clothing, and a recovery period to allow for optimal healing. During a consultation, your board-certified surgeon will help determine if this approach is right for you.

S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck Candidates
The S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck is ideal for individuals looking to reduce stubborn fat and tighten surrounding skin without undergoing a traditional abdominoplasty. It is important to note that this procedure is mainly a body-contouring option, so those close to their target body weight tend to see the best results. Since future pregnancies can affect the outcomes of a tummy tuck, it’s advisable to consider this procedure for women once they are done having children. To determine if this procedure is right for your aesthetic goals, please contact Dr. Mok today to schedule a consultation.
The Defyne Approach
At Defyne, we recognize that every individual has unique goals and needs, which is why we go beyond a one-size-fits-all approach. Our surgeons take the time to develop personalized surgical plans, ensuring each procedure is tailored to the patient. By utilizing the latest advanced techniques, we strive to deliver natural-looking results while reducing the risk of complications.
What To Expect
During your consultation with your board-certified plastic surgeon, a customized treatment plan will be designed to align with your aesthetic goals. Your surgeon will also provide guidance on how to best prepare for your S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck, which may include adjusting medications, completing necessary tests, quitting smoking, and other pre-procedure recommendations to ensure optimal results.
The S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck is performed under local anesthesia, so there’s no need for general anesthesia, tubes, or groggy recovery. We will ensure you’re comfortable and at ease throughout the procedure, which we affectionately call our “Talk n’ Tuck” approach. This method reduces complication risks, procedure time, and post-surgery discomfort while speeding up recovery.
The S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck procedure is designed to deliver natural-looking results. The technique flattens the abdomen, eliminates rolls from the back and flanks, and enhances the projection of both the breasts and buttocks for a more balanced figure. This is accomplished through a combination of liposuction for fat removal and radiofrequency thermal energy for skin tightening. Additionally, muscle diastasis (often seen after pregnancy or weight loss) can be treated by making a small, well-concealed incision and reattaching the separated muscles.
As the S.M.A.R.T. Tummy Tuck is less invasive than traditional surgery, there’s minimal to no downtime. No drains are necessary, and patients are encouraged to begin walking on the day of the procedure to improve blood circulation. Pain medication is rarely needed, as the procedure causes little bleeding or soreness. Dr. Mok will guide you with personalized aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth and speedy recovery process.
