How Does Tummy Tuck Aesthetic Surgery Work with Hylia Turkey?

The technique applied for Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) Surgery with Hylia Turkey varies from person to person and depends on the operation. To use the correct and appropriate method, the physician should make a detailed examination and analyze radiological images. Depending on the deformation in the abdomen, full or mini tummy tuck surgery is performed. After rapid weight gain or loss, the muscle bonds weaken and tear; this causes separation between the muscles. With the pressure of the internal organs, loosened and separated muscles show the abdomen as if protruding outward and sagging. Abdominoplasty surgery removes excess skin in your stomach, which shows your belly protruding outward and tightening the remaining part. Abdominoplasty surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The incision size changes according to the technique applied. Excess skin and stretch marks are removed with a horizontal incision in the bikini area. If the navel location needs to be re-determined, a second incision is made around the navel. Suppose there is excessive fat in the place where the surgery will be performed. In that case, liposuction can be added to tummy tuck surgeries.

A full tummy tuck takes approximately 2-5 hours. Mini tummy tuck surgery may take 1-2 hours. The duration of the operation may vary according to the case's situation. The expectation from tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) surgeries should be a flat stomach with tight muscles.

What are the Types of Tummy Tuck Aesthetics?

Tummy Tuck operations with Hylia Turkey are operations performed under general anesthesia. Abdominoplasty can be performed with different techniques depending on the case's situation.

Tummy Tuck

This technique is mainly applied to people who have given birth or gained and lost excess weight. Total tummy tuck surgeries focus on the abdominal muscles. The muscles found here lose their natural shape due to pregnancy or weight fluctuation. In total tummy tuck surgery, excess skin and subcutaneous fat are removed with an incision from the bikini area, and the navel is repositioned. In full tummy tuck surgery, the lower and upper parts of the navel are stretched, and the abdominal wall and the waist are thinned. The result will be better if excess fat is removed by liposuction during abdominoplasty surgery.

Partial Abdominoplasty (Mini Abdominoplasty)

Mini tummy tuck (Mini Abdominoplasty) operations only target the lower abdomen (below the belly button). Mini tummy tuck surgery does not include intervention in the abdominal muscles separated due to pregnancy or weight fluctuation. In a mini tummy tuck, no intervention is made on the belly button and the area above the navel. Compared to the full tummy tuck operation, the skin and subcutaneous fat are intervened with shorter incisions.

Fleur de Lis Abdominoplasty

Fleur de Lis tummy tuck technique is applied to remove excess skin after bariatric surgery or diets that cause extreme weight loss. In addition to the horizontal incision made in a full tummy tuck, a vertical incision is made along the midline. Thus, an incision scar in the form of an inverted T letter is formed. With this method, the areas that cannot be intervened with the classical tummy tuck operation have interfered. Excess skin, fat tissue, and stretch marks are removed, and the skin is put together in the midline.

The recovery process of tummy tuck surgery (Abdominoplasty) varies according to the technique and the patient's condition.
