Abdominoplasty is a frequently preferred plastic surgery procedure to correct sagging and deformations in the abdominal area.Tummy Tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, stands out as one of the aesthetic surgery operations. This operation is one of the most effective methods applied in the fields of abdominal and belly aesthetics. 

Especially after pregnancy, the muscles and skin in the abdominal area cannot return to their previous state. This situation causes deformations in the abdominal area, resulting in an aesthetically unpleasant appearance. This deformation is more pronounced in women who gain more weight than necessary during pregnancy and who have given birth more than twice.

After pregnancy, the connective tissue in the abdominal wall loosens and the abdominal wall moves forward, causing looseness and cracks in the abdominal area. As a result, an undesirable image emerges. Methods such as exercise and diet are not the solution to eliminate this deformation. Abdominoplasty offers a definitive solution to people suffering from such conditions. Thanks to this operation, the loosened and sagging abdominal skin is recovered. At the same time, with this operation, excess fat concentrated in the area is removed and the aim is for the person to have a flat stomach.

What is Abdominoplasty?

Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) surgeries are a solution approach for sagging skin in the abdomen and lower belly area and fat that cannot be removed with diet and exercise. Sagging, stretch marks and fat that occur due to caesarean section, pregnancy and constant weight gain and loss can be easily eliminated thanks to plastic surgery.

In addition to the general interventions to eliminate the deformation in the abdomen and below the belly button, if the fat and sagging only occur in the area below the belly button, then a mini tummy tuck operation may be sufficient. Mini abdominoplasty surgery is an easier surgery in terms of both the duration of the procedure and the shorter recovery period. Recovery time varies from person to person, depending on their living habits and physical structure characteristics. Today's innovations in the field of medicine make it easier to perform this type of surgery more successfully, as in many other types of surgery.

What is Aimed with Abdominoplasty Surgery?

After abdominoplasty surgery, a 1-2 size reduction in body measurements is expected. Thanks to a flat stomach and a belly that is no longer saggy, it becomes easier to achieve a bikini body. It is possible to make the silhouette obtained by the operation smoother with the help of exercise that you will start after the post-operative recovery period.

Acting according to your doctor's advice on matters such as showering and renewing dressings will accelerate the healing process.

Will There Be Any Scars After Abdominoplasty?

If the muscles inside are intervened during the surgery, scars may remain after the surgery. This scar usually remains inside the underwear and is not visible. There may also be a scar on the edge of the navel, but this scar is not noticeable because it remains in the belly button.

Can Tummy Tuck Be Applied Together with Liposuction?

Liposuction (fat removal) method can also be applied together with this operation. Because while the front and side parts of the abdomen are shaped during abdominoplasty, the waist part may remain protruding, especially in overweight people. With liposuction, the waist can be shaped in accordance with the abdominal structure.

Can Tummy Tuck Surgery Be Performed for Stretch Marks?

Due to excessive expansion of the skin, deep cracks may form in the abdominal area and the skin loses its elasticity. In such cases, tummy tuck surgery is preferred to eliminate deformed skin. However, for this to happen, there must be sagging in the abdomen. Because when the cracked parts are removed, it is important for the remaining skin to be flexible to cover that area. In other words, the cracks in the abdomen can be closed as much as the skin allows. If too many parts are removed, the person may have problems bending forward. If this surgery is performed before the abdomen is sagging, the wound may not heal, or the belly may be deformed.

Is Abdominoplasty Surgery Performed in Summer?

One of the most curious issues about tummy tuck surgery is the timing of the surgery. The operation can be performed in summer, but the surgical scar should not be in direct contact with the sun. If this is taken into consideration, there is usually no problem. If the area will be exposed, a sunscreen with a high protection factor should be applied. However, if there is a need to wear a corset after the surgery, problems may occur. Because using a corset in the summer may have negative consequences due to the heat.
