TUMMY TUCK
Tummy Tuck in Turkey
Overview A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery that removes excess fat and skin from the abdomen and tightens the muscles. It may be a good option for the excess belly fat not responding to diet or exercise. Plastic surgeons tighten the connective tissue in your abdomen with stitches. Then, they reposition the skin to ensure the correct skin tone.

Sagging or excessive fat in the abdomen is a disturbing look for everyone. When diet and exercise prove to be futile, self-esteem issues may occur. A tummy tuck may give you the slim look you desire. Also, it improves the overall body appearance.
At Istanbul Med Assist, we find tummy tuck procedures in quite reasonable costs, considering the impressive results it produces.
Why is it done?
Deformities in the abdomen can occur for different reasons, such as significant changes in weight, pregnancy, abdominal surgery, or aging. Plastic surgeons can perform the tummy tuck operation on any healthy man or woman. This surgery is especially popular with women who have had multiple pregnancies to tighten their abdominal muscles and reduce sagging skin.
How do you prepare?
Firstly, you should be careful to choose a plastic surgeon who has received the necessary training and is experienced. Your surgeon will review your medical history in detail. Also, it is essential to inform them about issues such as past or ongoing health problems, medications they use, surgeries, and any medications they are allergic to. In addition, your surgeon requests detailed information about your weight gain and loss status.
Complete tummy tuck
Surgeons cut the abdomen along two hip bones and reposition the skin, tissues, and muscles.
Mini tummy tuck
Surgeons apply this tummy tuck to patients with fat below their navel. The surgery takes a short time, and your surgeon does not move your belly button. Before the operation, you should be careful to keep your weight in balance. With a balanced and adequate diet, you should not gain or lose weight frequently. Moreover, losing significant weight after surgery will affect the outcome. Finally, it would be best if you made the necessary preparations for the healing process in your home. You will need ice packs, easy on-and-off clothes, and Vaseline.
During tummy tuck
Surgeons remove the excess skin and fat between the belly button and pubic hair by making an oval incision. Then, they tighten the connective tissues using permanent sutures. Next, they reposition the skin around the belly button. Then, they close the large hip-to-hip incision above the pubic hair. The surgery can take 2-3 hours.
After tummy tuck
After surgery, they cover the abdomen with surgical dressings. Surgeons place small tubes at the incision site to prevent the accumulation of blood or fluid. On the first day, you must get up and walk with the help of medical personnel.
They instruct you on how to care for the surgical wound after the operation. Also, you should wear supportive clothes on your abdomen for six weeks following the surgery. This clothing prevents fluid build-up and aids the healing process.
Results
It takes some to see the actual results of the surgery. However, having the proper healing process and maintaining the weight is critical for the best result. You will see a significant improvement in the overall appearance of your abdomen and body. You will have a thinner and more well-proportioned tummy. If you want to enjoy the results you have achieved for a long time, ensure not to interrupt your diet and exercise and keep your weight balanced.
