One of the most popular sections of plastic surgery is abdominoplasty (from the Latin "belly"). With the help of abdominoplastic operations, the aesthetic proportional shape of the abdomen is restored. Abdominoplastic surgical intervention is voluminous and complex. Lasts from 2 to 5 hours. In the postoperative period, careful hygiene, strict dosing of the load, and balanced nutrition are required. Only an attentive attitude to your body, the implementation of a complex of rehabilitation measures will allow you to preserve the results of the doctor`s work and maintain the beauty of your figure for a long time.

Abdominoplasty helps to give a perfect look to a multifunctional stomach. Tummy tuck Turkey provides high-quality services in this area, excellent conditions for the subsequent rehabilitation period.

The abdomen is a vital part of the body, deformed by the impact of various circumstances - most often in women due to pregnancy; diseases associated with metabolic disorders; improper lifestyle, nutrition, etc. In order for this part of the body to be beautiful, abdominoplasty, liposuction (removal of excess fat from different parts of the body), umbilicoplasty (formation of a beautiful navel) are used.

With a sharp weight loss, the largest number of skin folds and sagging are formed on the stomach. It is impossible to eliminate very noticeable defects with the help of intense physical exertion or diet. Excess skin, fat deposits can only be removed by abdominal abdominoplasty. During the operation, incisions are made near the navel and in the lower abdomen from one hip to the other just above the pubis. The incision should be where it can be made as inconspicuous as possible. After that, the skin and subcutaneous fat are separated and lifted from the anterior abdominal wall, the anterior abdominal muscles are strengthened and connected. Excess fat deposits are removed by cannulas - special tubes made of soft material containing a solid pin, thanks to which cannulas are easily inserted into the body cavities. The surgeon corrects the aponeurosis, forms the necessary umbilical opening. After that, excess skin is cut off, subcutaneous drainage is installed to remove postoperative exudate, stitches are applied. A complex operation is performed under general anesthesia. When separating a large amount of skin, special care is necessary, since mismatched capillaries, nerve endings and other connected tissues that were previously detached from the abdominal wall must be restored. This is a long process that requires special conditions for the body.

Due to the fact that many people have insufficient information about abdominal plastic surgery, serious misconceptions arise. Often people turn to specialists who believe that a plastic surgeon can immediately cut off all the fat from the body, form the skin, and they will instantly become beautiful and slim. You will not have to make any more efforts to lose weight. It will be possible to eat the same and as much as always, to lead the same lifestyle. It doesn`t happen that way. Abdominoplasty eliminates many significant abdominal defects, but is not a means to lose weight. Not only that. Many people with obesity of various origins cannot be operated on. With the help of abdominoplasty, it is impossible to lose weight quickly, and a tummy abdominoplasty is not an option for losing weight for the lazy. In order to perform an operation, it requires not only the absence of contraindications, but also systematic work on yourself, especially in cases of overweight. Preliminary reasonable diets, physical exercises should be used in order to bring the body to the state in which the operation will be possible and effective.

Another myth that arose due to lack of awareness: some applicants consider abdominoplasty and liposuction to be the same thing. This is a profound misconception. Liposuction involves removing excess fat not only from the abdomen, but also from other parts of the body. The procedure is carried out using cannulas. No incisions or skin stretches are made. It is possible to do liposuction only in the absence of contraindications and only when excess weight exceeds the desired by no more than 9-10 kg.

The myth is a misconception that abdominoplasty is a small operation will be dispelled if you ask the patient to imagine the essence of the procedure. Cutting off a large amount of skin makes it necessary to separate it from a significant area of the internal cavity, which increases the complexity of the operation and its perception by the human body. It confirms the seriousness of the surgical intervention and the strength of its impact on the body that the operation can last at least one and a half, and in most cases 2-5 hours. Complex connections of stretched tissues, muscles, blood vessels, fat layer, etc. they require special care, attention and experience. Even if a small abdominal lift is performed. Patient tummy tuck reviews speak of the painstaking work of surgeons and excellent results if the necessary rules are followed.

There is a misconception that large scars remain after abdominoplasty. The appearance of wide inflamed scars is possible if the wound is poorly sewn; an infection is introduced into the seam, which causes swelling. Seams increase with their improper processing, non-compliance with the regime of wearing compression underwear, excessive untimely physical exertion.

Due to the same lack of awareness, there is an opinion-a myth that the result of abdominoplasty has a short-term effect. The reason for its occurrence is ordinary human laziness, because of which many people consider a magical transformation that does not require effort possible. Not all patients change their habits after surgery. Some people don`t want to remember that you can`t eat too much. It is necessary to apply a fractional balanced diet. This rule should be followed throughout life after surgery. In order for the result to be long-lasting or permanent, it is important not to allow the previous lifestyle. With excessive overeating, constant use of high-calorie foods, and other bad habits, the weight and volume of the abdomen will increase again. All previous efforts will be in vain, the result of abdominoplasty will be reduced to zero.

It is a mistake to think that diet and exercise always give the same results as abdominoplasty. Sports and a balanced diet bring significant results for an organism trained in advance, for example, before childbirth. In such cases, the muscular framework of the abdomen holds the fetus well, stretch marks almost do not occur. After giving birth, strong muscles gradually return to normal, also supporting the skin. An undeveloped sports body can recover without abdominal plastic surgery. But there are cases when diet and exercise will no longer help. Severely sagging skin, peculiar aprons can be removed only with the help of abdominoplasty.

There are claims that after abdominoplasty it is impossible to give birth, it is impossible to get pregnant after a tummy tuck. There is a small amount of truth here. After surgery, the skin on the abdomen becomes stretched, there are no surpluses, so difficulties may arise during pregnancy. Doctors do not recommend doing abdominoplasty if a woman plans to get pregnant. In this case, severe stretch marks may form. Stretched skin will interfere with the growth of the fetus forward, there will be pressure on the internal organs. It is better to tighten the stomach after childbirth, if a woman is not satisfied with her appearance.
