Abdominoplasty Surgeries One of the procedures we carry out to shape and beautify the abdomen is the abdominoplasty. Also known as “Tummy Tuck”. One of the procedures we carry out to shape and beautify the abdomen is the abdominoplasty. Also known as “Tummy Tuck”. We tend to see deformations in the abdomen area after weight gain-loss or childbirth.In such cases, excess skin, sagging or loosening on the abdomen wall may be seen. Abdominoplasty or mini Abdominoplasty are methods used to eradicate these problems. We choose the desired method depending on the degree of deformation. The loose and excess tissues are removed with one of these methods,resulting in a stretched and tightened abdomen. These procedures should not be seen as a weight loss method. The purpose is to fix the deformations on the abdomen wall. These surgeries do not prevent pregnancy afterwards. Nowadays, abdomen aesthetic surgeries have increased because of stomach staple surgeries or twin/triplet pregnancies after “in vitro fertilisation treatment”. Patients are looking into abdomen aesthetic surgeries to get rid of excess abdomen fat. Abdominoplasty surgeries or Mini Abdominoplasty surgeries are conducted on patients that experience skin sagging, skin cracks or excess fattening on or around the abdomen area. (Tummy Tuck) During this operation,the fat is removed, the cracks are eliminated, the skin is tightened, the belly button is fixed and the muscles are tidied up. After the healing duration, when you look in the mirror,you will see a flat and stretched abdomen. After losing 20-40 kilograms with stomach staple surgery, the skin sags excessively. To negate the effects of this and to tidy up the skin and muscles, the abdominoplasty is undertaken. For a successful surgery, you have to be healthy. You must state your daily smoking habit, the medication you use and any previous surgeries you have had to your doctor. You should not give misinformation to your doctor relating to your smoking habit. Scar after the Abdominoplasty Surgery The scar is hidden under your bikini line or underwear. It compares to a c-section mark, except a little bit longer. In the beginning it’s appearance will be evident. In time,it will turn pink. After a certain period it will simply look like a finger nail mark. Just like c-section marks. It will not completely disappear. Childbirth after the Abdominoplasty Surgery One year after childbirth, you may have this aesthetic surgery. It is possible that 18-24 months after the Abdominoplasty surgery, you may get pregnant again. This aesthetic surgery will not affect your baby’s development when you get pregnant. How much time needs to pass until you can return to the gym? Following approval from your plastic surgeon you may return to heavy sports after 2 months. The difference between Mini Abdominoplasty and Full Abdominoplasty If you have problems above your belly button, Full Abdominoplasty is undertaken. If you only have problems below the belly button, Mini Abdominoplasty is undertaken. Healing duration after Abdominoplasty Is done under general anaesthesia and clinical conditions You will have to stay one night in the hospital One week rest at home is necessary Antibiotics and painkillers will be prescribed Corset usage for 3 weeks Bruising, swelling and numbness may be felt on the abdomen area. These will heal within 6 months. Is Abdominoplasty a solution for obesity? If you are obese or have an excessive amount of weight, first you have to lose weight with exercise and diets. Generally we recommend stomach staple surgeries. These are conducted by general surgeons. After this stomach surgery, serious weight loss is experienced and sagging in the skin is evident. For this sagging, plastic surgeons conduct abdomen aesthetic surgeries. If you want to lose weight without a surgery, you have to consult with obesity experts. What is the price of the surgery? Before providing a price for the surgery we require that you attend an examination with a female plastic surgeon at Bağdat Caddesi / Istanbul.
