Everyone dreams of a desirable, slimmer and well-sculpted abdomen. Sometimes, the right diet and excessive physical workout may not be enough. The tummy tuck or abdominoplasty in Turkey may be an effective solution for those struggling with a sagging tummy due to weight fluctuation, pregnancy, or other similar reasons.
ABDOMINOPLASTY
What is Tummy Tuck Surgery?
The tummy tuck is a surgical procedure intended to tighten underlying muscles and remove excess fat and skin from the abdominal area by making incisions. During the procedure, the belly button may also be repositioned to give you more natural-looking contours. The remaining skin is pulled tight and sutured together to create a firmer and toned abdomen.

Abdominoplasty Procedure
While most abdominoplasty patients are women, men also choose this procedure to remove a sagging abdomen, mainly due to weight loss. At Body Clinic Turkey, we carefully design the tummy tuck procedure, giving profound and long-lasting results to both male and female patients.
A tummy tuck sculpts the waistline and repairs weakened abdominal muscles. However, patients with significant tummy rolls may benefit from the combination of abdominoplasty and liposuction.
During the initial consultation, our surgeons will discuss the right tummy tuck option for you, explaining the difference between a mini tummy tuck and a full tummy tuck.
Mini Tummy Tuck vs. A Full Tummy Tuck
The difference between a “mini” and “full” abdominoplasty comes from the amount of loose skin to remove. The skin of our tummy has two parts – above the belly button (umbilicus) and below the belly button. The skin below is the main reason people seek abdominoplasty,and this procedure is called a “mini” tummy tuck. On the other hand, a “full” tummy tuck operates both the upper and lower belly.
If you want to treat the looseness of the skin above the belly button, a scar is placed around the belly button so that the upper abdominal skin can be pulled down without lowering the umbilicus. If only the skin below the umbilicus is loose, the lower abdominal scar may be smaller in length, depending on the amount of the skin to be removed. An arc-shaped scar remains in the sutured areas, which will hide in the underwear later. While this scar is a reddish pink colour in the early period, it remains indistinct by blending with the skin’s natural colour later.
During one-on-one patient consultation, our surgeon will discuss whether to tighten muscles in addition to the skin. At the same time, we will also review the patient’s medical concerns and perform an appropriate physical examination. At the same time, we also discuss the tummy tuck surgery cost in Turkey.
Step-by-Step Procedure for Tummy Tuck Procedure in Turkey
With this surgery, the excess abdominal skin is removed with incisions made from the planned areas, and these incisions are then sutured aesthetically.
Day 1: Pre-Operative Procedure & Examination
During your examination at Body Clinic Turkey, we determine the amount and distribution of fat in the abdominal area, sagging of the abdominal skin, and skin quality. We take your photos to draw and plan the abdominal region to your desired and suitable dimensions. Then, you will have your pre-operative laboratory tests and anesthesia consultation. Finally, you will be dropped off at your hotel.
Day 2 - 3: The Surgery & Stay at the Hospital
At 07:00 in the following morning, you will be admitted to the hospital. Our nurses complete preparations, and your tummy tuck surgery begins. We perform the surgery under general anesthesia to make you sleep. The surgery lasts for around 3 hours. During the surgery, our surgeons place drains to evacuate the blood inside. After the operation, you will stay in the hospital for two nights. Necessary nursing and care services are provided.
Day 4: Discharge & Free Time
At the hospital, your doctor examines you. You will be discharged from the hospital on the 4th day. Our nurses will inform you about your post-operative care, and you will be dropped off at your hotel.
Day 5 - 9: Re-examination & Free Time
You will be examined at the clinic, and your drains will be removed. Now, you will have enough free time to explore the city. It is safe.
Day 10: Final Examination & Post-Operative Care
After your examination, your bandages are removed, and you can safely return to your country. Our nurses will inform you about your post-operative care and give you information sheets.
Before Tummy Tuck Surgery
In your first examination, the surgeon will learn about your general health condition, the amount and distribution of abdominal fats, the sagging degree of abdominal skin and the quality of your skin. During this examination, you should provide accurate and detailed information to your surgeon about your prior diseases, current health problems (diabetes, etc.), your habits (smoking, alcohol, etc.) and the medications you use (aspirin, sedatives, etc.).
You should also talk to your surgeon about why you want to have this surgery and what you expect from this surgery. Do not hesitate to discuss this issue clearly.
According to your expectations and examination findings, the surgeon will decide whether you need mini or full abdominoplasty itself or, along with liposuction, or liposuction only, can be sufficient for you.
During this examination, we also discuss which anesthesia is right for you, how many days you will stay in the hospital, and what complications you may encounter after surgery. We also perform necessary blood tests before the surgery.
Finally, we plan your tummy tuck surgery. It is also important to decide beforehand that the patient is not planning to become pregnant soon. Moreover, if the person plans to lose excess weight, the surgery should be postponed until the diet is completed. Thus, the recovery and tightening that will be achieved in the abdominal area will last longer.
Tummy Tuck Recovery
During the first day or two of the surgery, patients may experience limited mobility and may feel sore. We encourage short walks arund the house to promote good blood circulation as the body heals.
Please note that every patient is different, and so is their recovery process and time to heal. Most patients return to work after two weeks and exercise after 6-8 weeks.
- Refrain from lifting, bending, or straining during the initial recovery.
- Rest as much as possible.
- Take oral medications as needed.
- Follow post-operative care instructions for caring for surgical incisions, using the compression garment, and follow-ups.
- Maintain a healthy diet and regular exercise, which may help the surgery’s result last longer.

- Non-smokers
- Free of uncontrolled medical issues

FAQs
Abdominoplasty is a safe aesthetic approach to get a slim and flat tummy. Yet female patients should wait until they give birth due to the fact that pregnancy extends tummy tissues and stretches the skin. So, the patient will lose the results after all.
Most patients are advised to rest for at least two weeks and limit intensive activities for around 12 weeks for full healing. Yet it is important to take brisk walks around the house to maintain healthy blood circulation, which helps the skin tissue to regenerate faster. This will help with the healing process.
Yes. But make sure you maintain a healthy diet and ideal weight to achieve the desired result. Include plenty of leafy veggies, fruits, healthy fats, and lean protein in your diet. Pairing it with regular exercise will help maintain your new figure post-tummy tuck.
There may be rare post-op complications from the surgery. They may include blood clots, infection, and slow healing. Any old scars could be stretched, raised, or more noticeable after the tummy tuck surgery.
