Information about Tummy Tuck
Tummy Tuck
Excess skin and sagging may occur in the abdomen due to various reasons such as weight loss, pregnancy, and old age. These sagging are seen as a major aesthetic problem, especially for women. Especially after pregnancy, sagging in the abdomen in women can be a situation that bothers many people. Abdominoplasty, that is, tummy tuck surgery, is a surgical operation performed to recover these sagging skin and give the abdomen a flat appearance.
Excess skin and saggy skin appearance on the abdomen cannot be improved by diet and exercise. This appearance, which occurs for various reasons in women and men, can be corrected with a tummy tuck operation. The purpose of this operation is to provide aesthetic satisfaction by giving the person the appearance of a flat stomach. As a result of the operation, it is possible to obtain a flat and aesthetic appearance of the abdomen.
How is Abdominoplasty Performed?
Before starting the tummy tuck surgery, the doctor should evaluate the patient for suitability for this surgery. People who have low adipose tissue but have wrapping problems are prioritized for this surgery. In the operation, an incision is made in the area under the abdomen, also called the cesarean section line. With this incision, the abdominal skin is pulled from top to bottom.
The sagging and excess skin in the abdomen is cut and sutures are thrown. If there has been a change in the position of the belly button, it is corrected. As a result, the patient is provided with the desired flat stomach image. After the operation, aesthetic sutures are placed on the patient. In this way, the patient does not leave a clear scar at the surgery site.
Abdominal sagging may occur due to pregnancy, weight gain and loss. Abdominal skin is very flexible. If there are situations such as weight gain or pregnancy after the surgery, these sagging may occur again. The patient must be aware of this. Abdominoplasty is divided into two as mini and major.
Mini Abdominoplasty
This surgery, called mini abdominoplasty, is suitable for people with fat tissue and skin sagging in the abdomen. In this operation, excess fat and skin are removed from the abdomen. First, excess fat is removed from the abdomen. Then the skin operation is started. The excess part of the abdominal skin below the navel is removed. There is not much operation on the navel. This operation is more suitable for people who have excess fat and skin in the lower abdomen.
Major Abdominoplasty
In major abdominoplasty surgery, all excess fat and skin in the abdomen are removed. Generally, this operation is applied to people with a high degree of sagging. In this operation, the excess skin not only below the navel but also above the navel is recovered.
Post-Surgery Process
After tummy tuck surgery, patients are waiting for a recovery period. Patients are asked to rest for the first 2 weeks after the surgery and not to return to work. Protecting the abdominal area is very important, especially in the first months of the recovery period. In the first month, edema can be seen where the stitches are. In this process, a medical corset can be used with the recommendation of a doctor to support healing.
After tummy tuck surgery, it will be possible for the patient to return to his normal life and fully recover after 3 months. At the end of 3 months, the patient can return to his normal life with the appearance of a flat stomach. Since aesthetic sutures are used in the surgery, there is no obvious suture scar on the abdomen of the patient.
Abdominoplasty is one of the most frequently performed aesthetic operations in Turkey. This surgery will give very successful results for people who want to have a flat stomach appearance but have sagging skin.
