Abdominoplasty - Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is the process of removing excess fat and sagging abdominal tissue. As a result of this process, a tighter abdominal form is obtained, but this process is not done to lose weight. It is recommended that those who want to have tummy tuck surgery should have a stable weight, especially in the last 6 months. This surgery is not an easy procedure, it should be done by expert hands. On the contrary, it is a procedure to get rid of the saggy tissue that occurs after weight loss. When necessary, the muscle sutures are also removed and the inner corset is made.

This procedure is also done to remove most of the post-pregnancy sagging and/or cracks in maternal aesthetics. The statements such as non-surgical tummy tuck stretching or belly-flattening should not be respected because such procedure is not possible. Unfortunately, sagging cannot be removed without surgery, mostly with sports and diet. Abdominoplasty is performed under general anesthesia. With the lipoabdominoplasty technique, in which tummy tuck and liposuction are combined, the body can be contoured better. Abdominoplasty is an operation with scars. The scars are permanent and take their final shape after 1-1.5 years. Theoretically, dark-skinned people can see thicker and irregular scars more than those with fair skin. It is very important to massage or apply silicone sheets to the scars in the first 6 months. Traces must be protected from sunlight. The permanence of the scars differs between
individuals.
