Every woman wants to be well-groomed and affect her environment, like the world stars that affect millions with their beauty and posture. It is not difficult to achieve this with the developments in the health sector.

Now, anyone who wants can have a healthy and attractive appearance by prioritizing aesthetics. However, just like everything else, the right time is crucial for such appearance renewal processes.

There are some recommended periods for performing aesthetic operations. For example; breast, liposuction and abdomen in the spring period; In the last period of summer, nose, face lifting, and oil injection operations can be performed. In summer, a perfect body appearance can be achieved with endoscopic abdominal stretching operations that do not leave marks.

Already the whole aim of the developments in aesthetic surgery is to send the patients to their homes faster without hospitalization. In other words, daily surgery, less scar operations and getting more natural results.

Why do you need aesthetic intervention in the abdomen?

The main purpose of this surgery is to restore the abdominal tension of the abdominal muscles in patients who have not sagging in the abdominal skin but whose abdominal muscles are relaxed. The increase in fat in the abdominal wall is removed by liposuction, and the relaxation in the muscles is eliminated by stitching the muscles together with the endoscopic tools placed in a few small (1-2 centimeter) incisions made in the bikini area. If the patient has had cesarean before, the incision is limited to the cesarean scar. Since relaxation in the abdominal muscles is usually accompanied by sagging in the abdominal skin, abdominoplasty and mini-abdominoplasty are much more frequent surgeries. Over time, fat accumulates towards the middle of the body. There is an enlargement around the navel. In women, pregnancy and abdominal muscles are separated and the abdominal area is enlarged. This has to be reversed in some way. There are 2 basic operations for this. First, the skin is intact, but if there is an accumulation of fat, liposuction, liposhaping; the other is abdominal stretching if the skin is enlarged. Liposuction is a trackless surgery, but it is not very effective in relaxed abdomen, that is, it does not solve the enlargement of the abdominal area. Although abdominal stretching is very successful, it leaves a mark.

Where does the endoscopic tummy tuck surgery take place?

With the development of technology, laparoscopic surgeries are also used in aesthetics. The endoscopic tummy tuck surgery we perform is an example of this. So it's a new lane.

Who is this surgery suitable for?

Patients are divided into three. Young, liposuction to those who have not loosened the abdominal wall, only those with lubrication; Abdominal stretching operations where the abdominal muscles are repaired and excess skin and fat are removed for the patients whose skin is sagging and the abdomen is enlarged. However, there is a group between the ages of 35-45; her abdomen is enlarged after pregnancy, her belly circumference is enlarged, fat has accumulated, but her skin is tight. I can say that this group is ideal for endoscopic tummy tuck.

How does the person whose stomach is stretched go through?

We enter through the hole on the belly and pubis and remove the fat and skin from the inside. With the help of the television camera, we bring the internal muscles closer together and sew them from the inside. Since we have marked the shape of the abdomen from outside, we shape it accordingly. We narrow the belly inside. This operation takes 2-3 hours. We also do High Definition Liposuction. High Definition Liposuction is performed to form the abdominal muscles, chest muscles, lower back parts and the appearance of the hips. In High Definition Liposuction, unlike standard liposuction, more advanced forming techniques are used. Even with this operation, we can perform dislocations in the butt area and dimples in the waist area.

Is the advantage of this operation just that it is trackless?

In fact, the advantage of this operation is not just that it is trackless. In addition, this is an operation that shortens the healing process of the person undergoing the surgery. After this surgery, the person can easily wear a string bikini.
