Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct excess skin and looseness in the abdomen. This procedure is generally preferred in order to remove sagging and looseness caused by weight loss, birth or aging in people.

Abdominoplasty is performed by a plastic surgeon and general anesthesia is applied before the operation. During the operation, the surgeon removes the excess skin and fat tissue in the abdomen, tightens the abdominal muscles and reshapes the abdominal region in a tighter and more aesthetic way.

During the tummy tuck procedure, the abdominal muscles are also tightened. Abdominal muscles weakened and relaxed due to pregnancy or weight changes are tightened by the surgeon and a more solid structure is created. This makes the abdominal area appear firmer and more toned.

In the post-operative period, swelling, bruising and discomfort are normal. Patients usually recover within a few weeks and can return to their daily activities. However, the full recovery time varies depending on individual differences.

Abdominoplasty is an effective surgical option that solves the problem of sagging and looseness in the abdominal region of the person. This procedure helps a person achieve a firmer and flatter abdominal profile and generally increases self-confidence.
