What is abdominoplasty?
Tummy reduction surgery, which is called abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery to correct the appearance of the abdomen. During this surgery, the doctor removes excess skin and fat to tighten the abdomen. In the surgical process, sutures are used to tighten the connective tissues in the abdomen. Then the remaining skin will be moved to create a better appearance.
In what cases can abdominoplasty be carried out?
· The presence of excess skin gathered around the navel
· Weakness of the lower abdominal wall
· Failure to properly improve the appearance of the abdominal wall with liposuction
· Indented wound caused by previous caesarean section
What measures should be taken before abdominoplasty?
· Before undergoing surgery, you should consult a plastic surgeon regarding the surgical procedure and he/ she will provide the best advice regarding the body and the surgery method.
· Before the surgery, the doctor prescribes a series of tests that the person must perform in order to avoid serious problems and risks during the operation. Among these tests, hemoglobin test, blood coagulation, etc. can be mentioned.
· You should not eat or drink anything for 8 hours before abdominoplasty, and in fact you should not have breakfast. Also, the last meal before the operation should be a light meal.
· Drinking water should also be avoided until 2 hours before the surgery, because the stomach must be completely empty.
· If you have excess hair on your stomach, it should be shaved.
· Tablets such as aspirin tablets that cause blood thinning should be avoided, because their use can intensify bleeding during the operation.
