Abdominoplasty (Tummy tuck) is the correction of stubborn fat tissues and sagging skin structure with plastic surgery despite diet and exercise. During tummy tuck aesthetics (abdominoplasty), excess skin and fatty tissue are removed, the abdominal connective tissue is tightened with stitches and a more taut, flat stomach is revealed. These operations are generally preferred by those with excessive fat in the belly area, those with saggy abdominal skin, and those with a weak abdominal wall.

Before deciding on this operation, which is suitable for both women and men, it is significant to consult with your doctor and get information whether you have the necessary conditions for the surgery, the risk, and the healing process. For patients who want children, tummy tuck aesthetics should be postponed until after birth. Because your vertical muscles will be stretched during abdominoplasty, these muscles may separate during pregnancy.

The tummy tuck is not recommended for people with chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes, smokers, and those who have had some abdominal surgeries before. Tummy tuck surgery is recommended for patients with a body mass index above thirty after the ideal weight by dieting.
Recovery Process After Abdominoplasty
Drains are removed 1-3 days after the operation, and stitches are removed 1-3 weeks later. After 2-4 weeks, you can act completely relaxed. After a few months, you will feel complete as before, and you will be able to perform all your physical activities. It may take 9-12 months for the traces to become unclear.
