During the skin removal, the surgeon can remove the fat in the abdomen by intervening. The abdomen then takes a flat shape. Abdominoplasty is performed under general anesthesia and takes an average of 3-4 hours. After the abdominal tightening surgery, there will be incisions of up to 10 cm in length in the abdomen, but these will not be visible because they are under underwear.​

​

Since there will be an intervention to reshape the belly during the tummy tuck surgery, a small scar may remain around the belly, but this scar will disappear over time.

​

A drain should be placed for 24 hours after the tummy tuck surgery. After the surgery, patients need to stay in the hospital for one night and can be discharged the next day. The patient should wear a medical corset for one month after the surgery. The patient may feel some pain after the tummy tuck surgery, but this can be controlled by using painkillers.

​

After the surgery, bruising and swelling may occur in the abdominal area. However, this will pass within a few days, which is quite normal. The patient must wait at least 6 months to see the final results in the abdominal area. In order to speed up the healing (recovery) process after the tummy tuck surgery, the patient must stay away from smoking. ​
