This option of operative restoration of the beauty of the figure is used in the case when ordinary plastic surgery cannot lead to the proper result. If the patient has lost a lot of weight, then the skin on the abdomen sags significantly. Moreover, it stretches in the longitudinal and transverse direction. Therefore, in order to remove excess volume, it is required to make not only a horizontal incision (as with the standard procedure), but also a vertical one. This is the only way to form an ideal belly, getting rid of the overhanging folds of skin.

The operation received the name fleur-de-lis due to the fact that the removed flap is similar in shape to a three—leaf clover - the heraldic lily of the French. The scar after such an operation is shaped like an anchor. It should not cause concern, since with the help of additional manipulations it disappears quickly enough.

Every woman wants to have a perfect figure, in particular a beautiful belly. But pregnancy, excess weight get in the way of the ideal. Surveys have shown how men and women should look like a belly:

• smooth, elastic, elastic wall;
• pronounced difference between the lateral abdominal area and the hips, that is, the waist;
• soft contours must certainly be present. That is, the front part of the peritoneum wall is somewhat concave at the top, and, on the contrary, slightly convex at the bottom. As a result, we have a delicate feminine belly;
• the musculature (if we are talking about a woman`s stomach) should not be pronounced;
• the navel is about 1.5 cm in diameter . The place of its position is exactly in the middle between the xiphoid process and the pubis. If we consider the horizontal projection, then the navel is located between the upper part of the iliac bones.

There are only two factors that lead to a violation of the aesthetics of the abdomen. These include excess weight and pregnancy (especially multiple pregnancy). In such cases, after childbirth or weight loss, the skin cannot contract properly and hangs in folds. This is one of the reasons why tummy tuck after pregnancy is important, because diet, sports, and grooming procedures have little effect on the situation. It is possible to completely remove the "apron" from the skin-fat layer only by surgery. Fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty is an effective way to solve the problem. This is the only way to return perfect proportions and a beautiful belly. Abdominoplasty cost and expenses of which is low and still depends on the chosen clinic, is very popular in Turkey, which can be seen by abdominoplasty photos.

Speaking of indications, it is worth noting that abdominal plastic surgery is mainly an aesthetic operation. It is required to eliminate the external shortcomings of the body, increase self-esteem and quality of life, get rid of complexes.

As a rule, intervention is in demand by women. Men resort to the help of surgeons a third less often. The age of those and others mostly varies from 20 to 47 years.

Indications for health reasons include diastasis, the threat of hernia, regular violations of the integrity of the skin in the folds of the skin (diaper rash, irritation, sweating). Look at the results of abdominoplasty, the photos before and after are a good example.

Not everyone who applied to the clinic can become patients and perform plastic surgery. The operation has contraindications.

Many are obese. An increase in the abdomen and the appearance of folds is a direct consequence of an excess of visceral fat. It accumulates in the abdominal cavity around the internal organs. If the stomach is not only sagging, but also bulging, then this indicates that the level of subcutaneous and internal fat exceeds the norm. In the process of performing plastic surgery, work is carried out only with subcutaneous fat. Therefore, the desired result will not be achieved.

Speaking of contraindications, it is worth noting that it is impossible to perform abdominoplasty if there are:

• severe forms of diseases of internal organs and the endocrine system. For example, diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction, hypertension, and so on.
• planned pregnancy;
• poor blood clotting or predisposition to the formation of blood clots;
• severe obesity (with a BMI of more than 40);
• mental illness;
• excessive expectations from the operation.

Contraindications, as well as indications, are considered individually. Before making a decision on the possibility of plastic surgery, each patient undergoes a full medical examination. Based on the conclusion of several experts, a verdict is issued.

Abdominoplasty is a serious surgical intervention. Preparation necessarily includes:

• lifestyle changes. It is necessary to give up smoking, not to take alcoholic beverages. This increases the duration of the recovery period and interferes with tissue healing, provoking bleeding;
• passing a full examination by a number of specialists and conducting tests. This is necessary to identify possible contraindications.

It is necessary to exclude physical and psycho-emotional stress, notify the doctor about the medications taken, including dietary supplements and vitamins.

• Two weeks before the expected date of the operation, you need to undergo research:
• General blood test
• Blood for biochemistry: protein, urea, creatinine, total bilirubin, sugar
• Coagulogram. They look at prothrombin, the period of stopping bleeding, the rate of clotting
• Blood for immunodeficiency virus, syphilis, hepatitis
• Installation of blood group and Rh factor
• Urine analysis
• ECG and ultrasound of the heart

With favorable tests, the doctor agrees on the date of the operation, discusses the details of its implementation.

On the eve of the operation, we will allow a light dinner no later than 6 pm. The menu will be prompted by the attending physician. You need to go to bed at the time specified in the memo. This is necessary so that the body is rested and full of energy on the day of the operation. You can`t have breakfast in the morning. Failure to comply with this clause entails cancellation of the operation or serious health problems.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia. On the appointed date, the patient arrives at the clinic at the agreed time. An anesthesiologist talks to the patient. The operating surgeon makes a preliminary marking directly on the skin of the abdomen. After that, anesthesia is administered, the operation to remove excess skin volume begins.

After graduation, special underwear is put on the patient. Only then they wake me up. This is done in order not to cause additional painful sensations. The anesthesiologist and the surgeon are together throughout the entire stage of awakening and for some time after it.

After the intervention, you need to spend a day or two in the clinic. Regardless of the speed of recovery and the amount of skin removed, compression underwear should be worn for at least a month.

Getting up is allowed on the second day. At first, the patient is in a semi-bent position. On the fifth day, there is a significant relief and there is the possibility of independent movement in the usual position of the body.

The body is fully restored after 12 months. physical rest, prevention of colds and infectious diseases are required throughout the time.

At the discretion of the doctor, light physical activity is allowed 3 months after the operation. As a rule, a complex of physical therapy and physiotherapy is prescribed.

The patient must follow a diet (prescribed by a nutritionist), lead a healthy lifestyle, sleep a sufficient amount of time (at least 8 hours). This helps to preserve the result of surgical intervention.

Like any procedure, fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty has advantages and disadvantages. Consider them.

The advantage of this type of plastic surgery is the complete restoration of the contours of the abdomen, the acquisition of a beautiful figure, an increase in the standard of living, self-esteem. The patient gets the opportunity to wear beautiful underwear, clothes.

Abdominoplasty is a serious surgical intervention. Any operation requires a recovery period, has a number of contraindications and possible complications.

Abdominal plastic surgery, performed according to fleur-de-lis technology, refers to the safest possible interventions. However, there is always a risk of complications:

• infection;
• bleeding;
• poor uneven healing and, as a result, asymmetry.

A good clinic and a surgeon with extensive experience in performing tummy tuck Turkey are the best guarantee of minimizing possible risks.
