Types of abdominoplasty abroad

A tummy tuck abroad starts with a consultation: the surgeon assesses the amount of excess skin, the condition of your abdominal muscles and your general health. This determines the type of surgery and whether it is worth combining it with liposuction or other procedures.

Mini tummy tuck

for a small amount of excess skin

The incision is made below the navel and a small amount of excess skin is removed. The operation helps make the lower abdomen flatter and firmer.

Full abdominoplasty

with abdominal muscle repair

The incision is made in the lower abdomen above the pubic area, and its length depends on the amount of excess skin. The surgeon often stitches together muscles that have stretched or separated after childbirth (diastasis).

Abdominoplasty in Turkey

Circumferential abdominoplasty

abdomen, flanks and back

The surgeon works on the front of the abdomen, the flanks and the back, so the waist contour changes from all sides. The extent of surgery is decided at the consultation.

Fleur-de-Lis abdominoplasty

after major weight loss

The surgeon makes vertical and horizontal incisions that together form the letter T. This method is used when a lot of skin remains after significant weight loss.

Liposuction with a tummy tuck

for the contour of the abdomen and flanks

Liposuction removes fat deposits, and abdominoplasty removes excess skin. Clinics in Turkey offer popular packages of 360 liposuction combined with a tummy tuck.

Mommy makeover

a set of operations after childbirth

After pregnancy and breastfeeding, the surgeon may suggest a tummy tuck together with a breast lift and thigh contouring. What the package includes is discussed at the consultation.

Tests and preparation for a tummy tuck

Before drawing up a treatment plan, doctors review the tests you have already had and decide whether additional ones are needed. Some records can be assessed before you travel.

01

When to ask for an assessment

If the skin on your abdomen sags after childbirth or major weight loss and does not tighten over time, if a doctor has confirmed or suspects separated abdominal muscles, and if your weight is stable and you do not plan to lose much more.

A consultation is also useful if you want to combine procedures, for example a tummy tuck and liposuction, or if you have chronic conditions and want to know in advance whether surgery is possible.

02

How to prepare for surgery

The surgeon may ask you to stop taking blood-thinning medications for a while, including aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as certain supplements. You need to stop smoking at least a week before surgery. The coordinator will check with the clinic which tests can be done at home.

03

What can be assessed before the trip

Based on photos of your abdomen and your health information, a plastic surgeon experienced in abdominal surgery will give a preliminary opinion on which type of operation suits you and whether liposuction is needed. The final plan is approved after an examination at the clinic.

We will help you choose a clinic for your caseOur doctor-coordinator will review your medical records, explain the differences between clinics and help you choose the right specialist.

TREATMENT IN DETAIL

Tummy tuck abroad: what you need to know

What is Tummy Tuck surgery and how is it useful?

tummy tuck abroadWhy do many women believe that abdominoplasty abroad is an investment in a beautiful body and a confident future? Because Tummy Tuck surgery helps to improve the appearance of the waist by correcting the abdominal area. The surgeon reconstructs the anterior abdominal wall, removes excess fat and skin. Comprehensive abdominal plastic surgery is especially relevant after drastic weight loss or pregnancy, when the skin loses its elasticity and sags apron.

Foreign plastic surgery clinics offer a high level of service and medical expertise, making the abdominoplasty procedure not only safe, but also comfortable for patients. Particular attention should be paid to Turkey and South Korea, where plastic surgery has reached high standards and prices remain reasonable. In these countries, abdominal plastic surgery is performed using modern technologies. Clinics are equipped with advanced medical equipment, and surgeons have international experience and high qualifications. Patients who choose Turkish and Korean clinics can additionally enjoy the benefits of traveling and recuperating in these beautiful countries.

What are the options for abdominoplasty abroad?

body sculpting after childbirthThere are different methods of tummy tuck surgery abroad. The best plastic surgeons select the intervention options depending on the patient’s individual goals. It can be:

  • Partial abdominoplasty or mini tummy tuck. Suitable for those women who have a small volume of excess skin. The incision is made below the navel. This surgery allows you to make the abdomen flatter and tighter.
  • Full abdominoplasty. The surgeon makes an incision in the lower abdomen, approximately above the pubic area. The size of the incision depends on the amount of excess skin. It often involves repairing muscles that have stretched or separated after childbirth (diastasis).
  • Circumferential abdominoplasty (circular). Includes work with the front of the abdomen, flanks and back. So the contours of the waist from all sides are changed. As a result, the body will look more graceful and taut.
  • Fleur-de-Lis abdominoplasty. This is a tummy tuck in the form of a heraldic line. In the process, the surgeon makes vertical and horizontal incisions on the abdomen, forming the letter “T”. This method is often used in people who have lost a significant amount of weight, such as 40 pounds.

Each of these abdominoplasty techniques is designed to address specific problems and improve body contours. To eliminate excess fat deposits, liposuction is used as a relatively gentle method of figure correction.

It is important to know! Often patients after consultation with a plastic surgeon change their strategy. Foreign doctors offer a comprehensive approach to solve several common problems with the figure. After a sharp decrease in body weight, pregnancy and breastfeeding, women may be recommended a breast lift, thigh correction, elimination of stretch marks on different parts of the body. The complex of such operations is called Mommy Makeover and it also includes abdominoplasty.

What are the reviews about tummy tuck abroad?

Patients who have opted to have abdominoplasty abroad share their impressions with the Experts Medical team. Some of them:

  • Bursu: “I am very happy to have gone for abdominoplasty with Dr. Ergin Er. He is a wonderful doctor and he has a great team.”
  • Oksana: “I think back to my trip to Estetik International and I realize I would love to go back there again. It’s an amazing clinic, everything there is geared towards patient comfort. The surgery is complicated and takes several hours. But my doctor convinced me that everything would go well. A few days later I was safely back home.
  • Mirala: “I am from Germany. I had a tummy tuck. After a thorough search for a doctor, I chose Ercan Karacaoglu. He is not only an excellent surgeon, but also a friendly, wonderful person.”
  • Irene: “After giving birth, my skin stretched a lot. I had to tighten my stomach by wearing tight underwear with a high fit. I decided to have surgery in Turkey because it seemed more cost-effective than in the Czech Republic. I found Experts Medical on the Internet and got useful advice on which surgeon I should go to. It was a doctor from Istanbul Aesthetic Clinic. After the surgery I spent 2 nights there and they moved me to a cool hotel near the hospital. I was satisfied with everything from the first minutes with the coordinating doctor to the result of the tummy tuck! Thank you all so much!”.

How to properly prepare for a tummy tuck abroad?

To get a predictable result of abdominoplasty abroad, you can have an online consultation with a subspecialist. The abdominal surgeon can ask you questions about your current state of health, the medications you are taking and your wishes for aesthetic transformation. The more information the doctor gets from you, the safer and more productive the surgery will be.

As part of your pre-operative consultation, your surgeon may advise you to stop taking certain blood thinning medications and supplements for a certain period of time before and after surgery. These include aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. To avoid post-operative complications, you will need to stop smoking for at least a week before your tummy tuck surgery abroad.

Thus, before you travel to another country for Tummy Tuck, you will need to:

  • clarify what pre-operative recommendations need to be followed;
  • which version of abdominoplasty abroad you will undergo;
  • what tests will be needed and whether you will be able to perform them in advance at your place of residence.

To find out all the information you need, leave a message on this website. The coordinating doctor at Experts Medical will help you choose an abdominoplasty specialist abroad and organize a consultation with him/her.

How long is the rehabilitation after Tummy Tuck?

After abdominoplasty abroad, the main recovery takes up to a week, with normal activity occurring within 2-6 weeks. It can take up to several months for the results to fully stabilize.

How many days do I need to spend in hospital? Thanks to the professionalism of foreign surgeons, patients are usually not detained in the hospital for more than 2 days. In some cases, due to the age of the woman and the large volume of intervention, hospitalization for up to 5 days may be required.

When will the traces of surgery disappear? Depending on the chosen technique and the formation of scars, it may take from several months to a year. Faster to get rid of scars will help hardware cosmetic procedures, such as laser skin resurfacing CO2 or micro-needling RF.

When will the result be visible after a tummy tuck abroad?

Usually it is possible to see the final result of abdominoplasty 3 months after surgery.

The exact timeframe when the patient will be able to appreciate the new body contours may depend on the following factors:

  • genetics and general health (affect the speed of tissue healing);
  • the extent of the surgery: the type of tummy tuck will determine the duration of recovery;
  • compliance with the doctor’s recommendations, which is important for optimal healing;
  • chronic diseases can slow down the rehabilitation process.

How to go for the best tummy tuck abroad?

abdominoplasty resultEntrust your health and body beauty to the experts at Experts Medical. Because we know the secrets of how to economically and qualitatively make the best tummy tuck abroad.

Usually insurance companies do not pay for cosmetic surgeries, including abdominoplasty, regardless of the country where it is performed.

After receiving your request, your Experts Medical doctor will provide you with the most favorable package offers from the best foreign clinics.

Your Experts Medical personal physician-coordinator will take care of:

  • organizing all stages: from finding a plastic surgeon to buying plane tickets for your return home after surgery;

Questions about abdominoplasty abroad

About choosing a doctor, costs and preparing for treatment.

Can I get a plan and a price before I travel?

Yes. A tummy tuck abroad starts with an assessment of your photos and health information: the medical coordinator sends them to the surgeon, and the clinic prepares a preliminary program and cost estimate. We request programs from several clinics so you can compare prices and what is included. The final plan is confirmed after an examination.

Can liposuction alone be enough instead of a tummy tuck?

Liposuction removes fat deposits, but it does not remove excess skin or repair the muscles. If the skin sags or the muscles have separated, a surgeon specializing in liposuction and body contouring will usually suggest abdominoplasty or a combination of both. The final surgical plan is decided after the consultation.

How long is the trip?

Under our partner clinics’ programs, the trip takes about 5 days, with 1 day in hospital. If the tummy tuck is combined with liposuction, the packages are designed for 6-7 days. The exact length depends on the clinic and the extent of surgery.

How long is recovery, and when will I see the result?

The main recovery usually takes up to a week, and people return to normal activity within 2-6 weeks. Under the clinics’ programs, the final result is assessed after 2-3 months, once the swelling has gone down.

Scars fade over a period of several months to a year. A plastic surgeon will give you aftercare recommendations before discharge.

Can I have a tummy tuck if I am planning a pregnancy?

A pregnancy after surgery may stretch the skin and abdominal muscles again. It is worth discussing this with the surgeon in advance to choose the right time for the operation.

What is included in the price of a tummy tuck?

Packages from clinics in Turkey usually include the surgery, medical expenses, consultations before and after surgery, hotel accommodation, transfers, an interpreter and coordinator support. The tummy tuck cost abroad depends on the type of surgery and any combined procedures, and the clinic gives the exact price after reviewing your photos.

Which documents are needed for an assessment?

Prepare photos of your abdomen from the front, from the side and bending forward, your height and weight, and information about pregnancies and births, chronic conditions, medications and previous abdominal surgery. If anything is missing, the coordinator will let you know.

Do my documents need translating?

Before ordering a translation, ask the medical coordinator. They will tell you what information the chosen clinic needs and in what format to send it, and help arrange a translation if necessary.

Can someone come with me?

Yes. Let the coordinator know that you plan to travel with a family member or friend: they will book a hotel for your recovery with shared accommodation in mind.
