What is a Tummy Tuck?
The enlarged fat layer often becomes unresponsive to sports, diet and exercise. In addition, skin problems due to collagen breaks, called cracks in the skin structure, which cause an unaesthetic appearance, also constitute a regional problem. The deformation in the abdominal muscles, which is often observed after overweight babies, causes this area to no longer support itself and sag.
What Exactly Does a Tummy Tuck Involve?
The area of surgical interest of the tummy tuck operation is the area starting from under the last rib and extending to the mons pubis. Mons pubis is the fluffy hairy area at the bottom of the cesarean section seam, also known as the Venus mound. The problem of excess fat in the abdominal area is one of the problems that not only women but also men suffer from. We can say that the abdominal area becomes more fat, especially in those who consume foods high in carbohydrates.
Although efforts are made to prevent fat with strict diet lists, both the deterioration of the skin structure and the impossibility of getting rid of this fat completely bring tummy tuck operations to the agenda. Even if individuals lose weight, they can only achieve successful results with a tummy tuck operation from enlarged and sagging skin tissue and skin cracks that are not possible to get rid of with today’s technology.
Individuals experience both psychological and health problems due to not being able to wear the clothes they want, their physical movements such as bending forward being limited due to this sagging tissue, and in some cases, bacteria formation due to sweating.
Who Can Have Abdominoplasty?
- Those who have fat in the abdominal area
- Those who experience cracks and skin deformation in the abdominal skin tissue
- Those with damage to the internal abdominal muscles
- Those who experience sagging, excess skin, and loss of form
- Those who want to get rid of this non-aesthetic appearance
If you have all the above-mentioned profiles, you may consider abdominoplasty. The abdominoplasty operations we perform within Estetik International Health Group are among the aesthetic surgery procedures for which we receive extremely good feedback and offer individuals a very comfortable life.
How is Abdominoplasty Performed?
Abdominal stretching surgeries are surgical operations performed under general anesthesia. The operation begins with an incision just inside the cesarean section line. Intra-abdominal muscles are strengthened and tightened. Then the problematic fat layer is removed from the body. If necessary, the mons pubis and waist cavity are redesigned. If female patients also complain about loss of form in the breast area, breast augmentation aesthetics can be included in the tummy tuck operation at this point. In this optional combined application, no incision is made in the breast for the silicone implant; the implant is placed in the chest area through a prepared abdominal incision. Afterwards, a new belly button is created for the belly button located within the removed skin area and the incision is closed.
Essentials of Abdominal Aesthetics
There are some points to consider in abdominal aesthetics. The new abdominal structure created in a successful tummy tuck surgery must meet the following points:
Location of the New Belly Button
The most important but frequently overlooked issue in abdominal aesthetics is the location of the newly created belly button. The new belly button should be created at the level of the 2 pelvis bones, taking into account body proportions. If there is a belly button that is not repositioned where it should be, this creates a different appearance, causing individuals to have an unaesthetic appearance.
Mons Pubis Bump
While the tummy tuck operation allows you to have an aesthetic abdomen, the bulging area between the clitoris and the caesarean section stitch should also support this new formation. It would be appropriate to solve the fat problem in this area, also called the Venus hump, within the same surgery. Because this area often experiences fat problems at the same time as the abdominal area, it is essential to have an aesthetic form in this area.
After Tummy Tuck Surgery
All the problems listed above can be overcome with abdominoplasty surgery. Abdominoplasty operations, which allow you to have a taut, smooth skin texture, also offer the patient an extremely comfortable recovery process, with the advantages of today’s advanced technology. You can return to your social life within approximately 1 week and say hello to life again with your renewed aesthetic body.

Where Should the Stitch Mark Be?
The tummy tuck surgery incision scar, which should remain inside the bikini strip, will help camouflage the patient by providing maximum aesthetics in her future life. It should be aligned as low as possible and inside the cesarean section seam.
Waist Curve
The waist area, which cannot adapt to the newly created taut abdomen, requires new shaping. Fat in the waist area should also be removed.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Abdominoplasty, which is mostly preferred by women due to postpartum deformations, is a comfortable procedure that can also be performed on men.
Abdominal stretching surgeries are performed on patients whose fat tissue has increased too much, become loose, and who have diastasis problems, especially those caused by the separation of the midline of the abdominal muscles.
For different reasons, the skin in the abdominal area loses its elasticity over time and begins to sag. At the same time, the fat accumulated in the waist area causes this sagging to increase and the old form cannot be achieved even with diet or exercise. Skin stretch marks that occur during pregnancy or develop in connection with frequent weight gain and loss cause undesirable appearances such as deep, red or burnt appearance. The densely accumulated fat tissue on the abdominal wall, the abdominal area that expands and cracks with pregnancy, and the looseness of the muscles in the inner abdomen can only be eliminated by abdominoplasty surgery.
Abdominoplasty is performed under general anesthesia and begins with an incision at the level of the cesarean section. Excess sagging and out-of-shape abdominal skin is removed, and the abdominal wall is tightly reshaped.
