Professional Tummy Tuck Surgery in Turkey

Abdominoplasty is a plastic surgery to eliminate excess skin or fat in the abdomen and waist region. Although abdominoplasty surgeries are not purely cosmetic procedures, applying this type of surgery together with liposuction for weight loss is possible. Tummy tuck surgeries are performed to remove sagging skin, skin marks, and loss of the abdominal muscles caused by excessive weight fluctuation, post-pregnancy and obesity surgeries, or hormonal conditions. These surgeries reshape your abdomen and waist region and help you achieve a healthy body.

How Does Tummy Tuck Aesthetic Surgery Work with Hylia Turkey?

Abdominoplasty at Hylia Turkey is customized for each person based on their needs. The doctor will examine the patient and review X-rays to determine the best approach. Depending on the extent of abdominal issues, either a full or mini tummy tuck surgery will be recommended. After rapid weight gain or loss, the muscle bonds weaken and tear; this causes separation between the muscles. With the pressure of the internal organs, loosened and separated muscles show the abdomen as if protruding outward and sagging. Abdominoplasty surgery removes excess skin in your stomach, which shows your belly protruding outward, and tightens the remaining part. Abdominoplasty surgery is performed under general anesthetic. The incision size changes according to the technique applied. Excess skin and stretch marks are removed with a horizontal incision in the bikini line. If the navel location needs to be re-determined, a second incision is made around the navel. Suppose there is excessive fat in the area where the surgery will be performed. In that case, liposuction can be added to abdominoplasty surgeries.

A full abdominoplasty takes approximately 2-5 hours. Mini tummy tuck surgery may take 1-2 hours. The duration of the operation may vary according to the case's situation. The expectation from these surgeries should be a flat stomach with tight muscles.

What are the Types of Tummy Tuck Surgery?

Abdominoplasty operations with Hylia Turkey are performed under general anesthetic. Depending on the case, different techniques can be used.

Full Tummy Tuck

This technique is mainly applied to people who have given birth or gained and lost excess weight. Total abdominoplasty surgeries focus on the abdominal muscles. The muscles found here lose their natural shape due to pregnancy or weight fluctuation. In total abdominoplasty surgery, excess skin and subcutaneous fat are removed with an incision from the bikini area, and the navel is repositioned. In this aproach surgery, the lower and upper parts of the navel are stretched, and the abdominal wall and the waist are thinned. The result will be better if excess fat is removed by liposuction during abdominoplasty surgery.

Mini Tummy Tuck (Mini Abdominoplasty)

Mini tummy tuck operations only target the lower abdomen (below the belly button). Mini abdominoplasty surgery does not include intervention in the abdominal muscles separated due to pregnancy or weight fluctuation. In a mini abdominoplasty, no intervention is made on the belly button and the area above the navel. Compared to the full abdominoplasty operation, the skin and subcutaneous fat are intervened with shorter incisions.

Fleur de Lis Abdominoplasty

The Fleur de Lis technique is applied to remove excess skin after bariatric surgery or diets that cause extreme weight loss. In addition to the horizontal incision made in a full tummy tuck, a vertical incision is made along the midline. Thus, an incision scar in the form of an inverted T is formed. This method addresses the areas that cannot be intervened with the classical abdominoplasty operation. Excess skin, fat tissue, and stretch marks are removed, and the skin is put together in the midline.

How Does the Healing Process Work After Tummy Tuck Surgery?

The abdominoplasty recovery process varies according to the technique and the patient's condition. We recommend that you consider your recovery process when planning your surgery. After your surgery, it is essential to rest for 1 - 2 weeks. You will usually be discharged from the hospital on the 1st or 2nd day after surgery. It is normal to experience swelling and bruising in the operation area after your abdominoplasty surgery. You may feel pain for a while, especially if muscle tightening was involved in your surgery. Your doctor may recommend painkillers for this condition. You will be advised to wear a purpose-made corset for the first month to reduce swelling and bruises in the operation area. Although it varies according to the person and the type of operation, after the first week, you can gradually return to your daily activities. This period may take up to two weeks for some patients. Your stitches on the skin surface are removed after the first week. Other stitches will dissolve in your body.

What You Should Consider Before Tummy Tuck Surgery

If you are planning to give birth after the operation, you should plan your surgery after the birth. Abdominoplasty is a surgical operation performed under general anesthesia. For this reason, we would like to draw attention to some issues before the procedure.

Smoking and alcohol consumption should be stopped before the operation, as they increase the risk of complications in general anesthesia and adversely affect the healing process.
As with all surgical operations, you should stop taking aspirin, blood thinners, and similar products before the procedure, as instructed by your doctor.
If you have chronic diseases or medications you must take regularly, you should inform your doctor. Use your medicines as directed by your doctor. Do not use medication without your doctor's knowledge.
Before performing the operations under general anesthesia, you should not eat or drink anything for at least 8 hours.
Do not use contact lenses, makeup, or any unnatural substance (such as false eyelashes) on the day of surgery.
Surgery will limit your movements for a few days. Prefer to take loose clothes with you for the postoperative period.

How To Care After Tummy Tuck Surgery

Attention, please! The information provided here is for general information purposes only. The recovery process after your surgery is specific to the person and the case. Your health and healing process needs to go through this process by following the instructions given by your doctor.

Do not smoke for at least two weeks after your abdominoplasty, as it will slow down the healing of the wound area. We recommend you quit smoking for a healthy life.
Our nurses will administer your painkillers and other treatments during your stay in the hospital. After discharge, you will need to use the painkillers and antibiotics prescribed by your doctor for a fast and comfortable recovery.
You should wear your corset for about one month, as your doctor recommends.
Pay attention to your diet after the surgery. For the first days, choose protein-rich and soft foods. Avoid legumes and spicy foods as they can cause gas.
Avoid bending, heavy lifting, and straining for the first three weeks.
Avoid sexual intercourse for three weeks after your surgery. Elevated blood pressure can cause bleeding in the surgical area.
Do not drive for a week to ten days.
Drink lots of water. We recommend that you drink 2-3 liters of water a day.
Walking for 15-20 minutes several times daily after healing is completed is beneficial.
Please consult your doctor about the medications you should use after surgery, such as blood thinners and aspirin, and follow their recommendations.
If your recovery is complete, you can swim in the sea one month after your surgery. After the eighth week, you can swim in the pool.
Do not go to the sauna, as the high heat and steam will cause swelling.
It is essential to periodically send photos showing the condition of your body parts at the end of the 3rd week, 6th week, 6th month, and 1st year following your surgery. If you feel any unusual situation, get in touch with us immediately.

Additional Information

Tummy Tuck Scar: The scar from an abdominoplasty is typically located in the bikini line, making it less visible under clothing. The appearance of the scar can vary depending on the technique used and the patient's healing process.

Tummy Tuck Procedure: The procedure involves removing excess skin and tightening the remaining skin to create a smoother, firmer abdominal profile. It can also include the repair of separated abdominal muscles.

Plastic Surgeon: Choosing a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon is crucial for achieving the best results. Look for a surgeon who is board-certified and has extensive experience with abdominoplasty.

General Anaesthetic: Abdominoplasty surgery is performed under general anesthetic to ensure the patient's comfort and safety during the procedure.

Bikini Line: The incision for an abdominoplasty is typically made along the bikini line, making it easy to conceal under swimwear and underwear. This strategic placement helps minimize the visibility of scars.

Weeks Off Work: After an abdominoplasty, planning for time off work is essential. Most patients need at least two weeks off to recover, although this can vary depending on the individual's job and recovery progress.

Cosmetic Procedure: While an abdominoplasty can significantly improve the appearance of the abdomen, it's important to remember that it is a major cosmetic procedure. Proper preparation and aftercare are crucial for optimal results and a smooth recovery.

Significant Weight Loss: Patients who have undergone significant weight loss often benefit from a abdominoplasty to remove excess, sagging skin that diet and exercise alone cannot address. This procedure helps contour the body and improve overall aesthetics.

Remaining Skin: An abdominoplasty aims to remove as much excess skin as possible while tightening the remaining skin to create a smoother, more toned appearance. This process helps restore the abdomen's natural contours and firmness.

Conclusion

Abdominoplasty surgery offers a transformative solution for those looking to eliminate excess skin and fat in the abdomen and waist region. Whether due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or other factors, this procedure helps achieve a firmer, more youthful abdominal profile.
