Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Smoking significantly impairs the body’s ability to heal and increases the risk of complications. To optimize your recovery and reduce the risk of infection, we strongly recommend quitting smoking at least 4-6 weeks before your surgery, and refraining from smoking during your recovery period.

For your safety, all contraceptive pills must be stopped at least one month prior to surgery. This is necessary to reduce the risk of blood clots and to support optimal circulation during your procedure.

Alcohol can interfere with anesthesia, increase swelling, and slow down the healing process. To ensure a smoother surgery and recovery, please limit alcohol intake at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure and refrain from drinking during your recovery period.

Blood-thinning medications, certain supplements, and herbal teas can increase the risk of bleeding during surgery. Please stop taking these at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure. Always consult with your surgeon about any medications or supplements you're currently taking to ensure a safe and effective surgery.

Payments for your procedure should be made in cash. Bank transfers should be done 7 days prior to arrival and if you prefer to pay by credit card, a processing fee will be added to the total amount, and the payment must be processed before your arrival in the country.

If you're traveling from abroad, ensure that you have the appropriate visa for entry into Turkey. If your country requires a visa, feel free to reach out to our team for assistance—we're happy to help with the process.

A well-balanced, nutritious diet is key to supporting your body’s healing process. Eat nutrient-rich foods in the weeks leading up to your surgery to help strengthen your immune system and prepare your body for the procedure.

It’s important to prepare a comfortable, quiet space for recovery at home. Take time off from work and avoid any strenuous activities to ensure your body can focus on healing. Having a cozy space to rest will help support a quicker and more comfortable recovery.

Upon arrival, you’ll check in, and our team will guide you to the pre-operative area where you’ll change into a surgical gown. Your vital signs will be monitored before the procedure.

A routine blood test will be conducted to ensure you're in optimal health for surgery. This helps assess key factors like blood clotting and general health, which are essential for a safe surgery.

After the blood tests are complete, you will meet with your surgeon to discuss the final details of your procedure. This is the perfect time to ask any last-minute questions or clarify any concerns. Your surgeon will review the areas to be treated, discuss the desired outcomes, and confirm the plan based on your goals. Together, you’ll go over the markings on your body to map out exactly where the liposuction will take place.

Once you and your surgeon are aligned on the areas to be treated, your surgeon will mark the treatment areas on your body. These markings are critical to ensure precise and even results. The areas to be treated will be clearly outlined, helping guide the procedure and providing a visual reference for your surgical team.

After the consultation and markings, you’ll be led to the operating room. Here, you will be given anesthesia, which could be local or general depending on the extent of the procedure and your surgeon’s recommendations. The anesthesia ensures that you will be comfortable and pain-free throughout the surgery.

Once you're sedated, your surgeon will begin the tummy tuck by making an incision along the lower abdomen to remove excess skin and tighten the muscles. Any remaining fat may also be removed for a smoother contour. The procedure typically lasts a few hours, and you will be closely monitored by our skilled medical team throughout.The next steps will be focused on your post-surgery care and recovery, which our team will guide you through in detail.
