Also known as “abdominoplasty”, tummy tuck is suitable for those who experience deformities in their tummy area as a result of major weight loss, pregnancy or aging.
Who Is a Suitable Candidate for Tummy Tuck?
The best way to find out whether you are a suitable candidate for the operation or not is to get a professional opinion. Therefore, the consultation sessions in which all the details about patients’ medical history, current medical condition, prior operations, plans about future pregnancies and expectations from the tummy tuck procedure are discussed, carry a big importance for the success of tummy tuck operation. To provide a convenient and comfortable medical experience for the international patients, Clinic Mono offers online consultations in which all of your questions about the procedure are answered, a personalized medical assessment is done and an individualized treatment plan is created.
Tummy tuck is not considered to be a suitable procedure for the ones who would like to lose weight or get pregnant in the future; the results of tummy tuck surgery can get deformed with weight changes.
Tummy tuck is not a procedure for weight loss but a procedure for removing the abdominal deformities comes with weight loss. Therefore, if you plan to have a bariatric surgery which will make you lose a great amount of weight or plan to lose weight by other ways, it is recommended to have tummy tuck turkey after your weight loss process is done.
Types of Tummy Tuck Surgery
Depending on the amount and size of the skin and fat which needs to be removed for the best results, tummy tuck operation can have different types such as;
- extended tummy tuck,
- regular tummy tuck
- mini tummy tuck
- lipoabdominoplasty
The difference between types of this operation is the size of the incisions made. While in extended tummy tuck the length of the incision may extend until your back throughout your bikini line in order to obtain better results for your condition; in mini tummy tuck the incision is usually relatively shorter than regular and extended tummy tuck.
According to your medical history, the physical condition of your tummy and your expectations from the operation, you will be provided with the most suitable technique and treatment plan in your consultation process.
