What is Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat and sagging skin to create a flatter, more aesthetically pleasing abdomen. Also known as an abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck is suitable for those who have deformities in the abdominal area as a result of significant weight loss, pregnancy or ageing.

An abdominoplasty is not considered a suitable procedure for those wishing to lose weight or become pregnant in the future, as the results of an abdominoplasty can become deformed with weight changes.

A tummy tuck is not a weight loss procedure, but a procedure to correct abdominal deformities, which is associated with weight loss. Therefore, if you are planning to have bariatric surgery that involves losing a large amount of weight, or if you are planning to lose weight by other means, it is recommended that you have a tummy tuck in Turkey after you have completed your weight loss process.

  • Duration of Treatment | 2-5 Hours
  • Hospitalization | 2 Day
  • Type of Anaesthetic | General

Frequently asked questions

What does a tummy tuck do?

It removes excess fat and sagging skin to give a flatter abdomen. It suits people whose abdomen has changed shape after significant weight loss, pregnancy or ageing.

Is a tummy tuck a weight loss operation?

No. It corrects the shape of the abdomen, often after weight loss, but it is not a way to lose weight.

Should I have a tummy tuck if I still plan to lose weight or get pregnant?

It's better to wait, because weight changes can deform the result. If you're planning bariatric surgery or other weight loss, have the abdominoplasty once that process is finished.

How long does a tummy tuck take, and how long is the hospital stay?

The operation takes 2-5 hours under general anaesthesia, and you stay in hospital for 2 days.
