TUMMY TUCK

Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure in which excess fat and sagging skin are removed from the middle and lower abdomen and the abdominal wall is tightened by stretching. These surgeries are not useful to lose weight in obese people. The ideal patients for these surgeries are those who do not have excess weight, who have excess skin and relaxed abdominal wall after weight loss. Patients with a lot of subcutaneous adipose tissue have less satisfactory postoperative results and higher rates of wound healing and complications. For this reason, reducing fat tissue by losing as much weight as possible before these surgeries increases the satisfaction of both the patient and the doctor.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How is the Patient Selection in Abdominoplasty?

The abdominal region is the region where the highest increase in fat tissue occurs when weight is gained. Excessive weight gain and loss and post-pregnancy result in cambering and sagging of the abdominal wall. People with deformities resulting from these events are suitable for surgery.

What are the Tummy Tuck Types?

Basically, there are two types of tummy tuck surgery, namely abdominoplasty. One is the whole abdomen abdominoplasty and the other is the mini abdominoplasty. In full abdominal abdominoplasty, the navel location is changed and the excess skin is removed. In mini abdominoplasty, only the underbelly area is stretched and the navel area remains fixed. It is a method that is mostly applied in lower abdomen sagging. In both methods, the muscle and fascia structures surrounding the internal organs can be compressed or the process can be terminated without any operation.

How is the Tummy Tuck Recovery Process?

Recovery time varies according to the type of abdominoplasty to be performed and the amount of relaxation-tightening of the patient. Recovery is faster and easier in mini abdominoplasty. If the muscle and membrane layer is not intervened, the patient recovers within 7-10 days. If the membrane layer is intervened, movements that will increase intra-abdominal pressure and force the sutures should be avoided between 2-6 months. The same durations apply in full abdominal surgeries, but it is not necessary to act more cautiously because the operating area is wider.

Is it Possible to Get Pregnant After Tummy Tuck Surgery?

Yes, pregnancy is possible. However, due to sagging and cracking again, it is recommended to perform a tummy tuck procedure after the birth is over.
