Many people want to get rid of unwanted sagging in the abdomen after losing their excess weight. <\/span>Abdominoplasty is the best option for these people. <\/span>As a result of tummy tuck surgery, a flat and tense abdomen is obtained and the wishes of these people are realized. <\/span>Abdominoplasty is a very advantageous aesthetic operation for many people.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What is Abdominoplasty?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Abdominal stretching surgery is a surgical aesthetic operation developed for various reasons such as excess fat in the abdomen, excess skin, sagging and similar problems, especially applied to people who have lost excessive weight but have sagging in the abdomen.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Although tummy tuck surgery is an operation applied to both men and women, it is performed more frequently on women, especially since women experience sagging in the abdomen after pregnancy. <\/span>The aim of tummy tuck surgery is to remove the saggy skin in the abdomen, remove excess fat and flatten the abdomen. <\/span>Thanks to tummy tuck surgery, the cracks under the belly button are also eliminated.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Why is Abdominoplasty Needed?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Especially the abdominal sagging, looseness and crack problems caused by pregnancy or excessive weight gain are solved with this surgery.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Abdominoplasty is an ideal aesthetic operation that offers a quick solution for sagging in the abdomen that does not go away with sports and diet.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What is the preparation process for Abdominoplasty?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

After the decision for tummy tuck surgery, the patient should stop using vitamins and various drugs under the control of a doctor. <\/span>Smoking and alcohol consumption should be stopped. <\/span>Until the surgery, he should start to integrate healthy living habits such as a balanced and regular diet, exercise, and positive behaviors such as meditation and walking in the open air.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In case of a cold, flu or any illness while waiting for the tummy tuck surgery, the patient should be careful about these issues, as the operation period will be delayed. <\/span>Activities such as excessive exercise, sunbathing, and low-calorie diet should be avoided during this period.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Eating and drinking should be stopped from 12:00 on the night before the tummy tuck surgery. <\/span>The patient should take care to rest during this period in order to get through the recovery period more easily after the surgery.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How is Abdominoplasty performed?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

How the tummy tuck is performed may vary depending on the area where the skin will be taken and other conditions. <\/span>The doctor will decide how to perform the surgery in line with the detailed examination and the examined radiological images.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Generally, the saggy and cracked skin on the part from the cesarean section level to the navel level over a line to the sides is removed and the skin on the upper part of the navel is stretched downwards. <\/span>The belly button is reconstructed by bringing it to the appropriate point.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to sagging and looseness in the abdomen, if there is excess fat, excess fat in the abdomen is removed by liposuction. <\/span>The loosened abdominal muscles are tightened and tensioned by suturing them over the peritoneum with retractor needles. <\/span>At the end of the surgery, the incisions are sutured with aesthetic sutures and an aesthetic appearance is gained.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Abdominoplasty is an operation that takes 3-3.5 hours on average, but can take up to four hours in people with a wide abdomen.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How is the recovery process after Abdominoplasty?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

It is normal for patients to experience tension in the abdomen during the recovery period after abdominoplasty. <\/span>In order for this feeling of tension to pass, it should be done by pulling the legs slightly towards the abdomen instead of lying flat on the bed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

During the recovery period, patients should avoid sudden movements, heavy physical activities, doing heavy housework and lifting heavy objects, because these movements increase intra-abdominal pressure and the increase in pressure may force the stitches to strengthen the inner abdominal wall. <\/span>With the removal of bandages after tummy tuck surgery, the obstacle for patients to take a shower will be eliminated.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There is no problem for patients who use corsets instead of bandages to take a shower the day after the surgery. <\/span>Care should be taken not to use pressurized and hard water only while taking a shower. <\/span>Although the recovery period after abdominoplasty varies according to the patient, it is between six and eight weeks on average.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
