Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) in Istanbul
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. It is one of the most comprehensive body contouring procedures for patients who want a flatter and firmer abdominal profile.
At Estelux Istanbul, tummy tuck procedures are performed by Op. Dr. Uğurlu — a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in post-pregnancy and post-bariatric body contouring. Depending on the patient's anatomy and goals, the procedure may be combined with liposuction for more comprehensive body contouring.
Which Tummy Tuck Technique Is Right for You?
Not every patient needs the same type of abdominoplasty. The appropriate technique depends on the amount and location of excess skin, abdominal muscle condition and the patient's individual anatomy.

After surgery, recovery is an important part of the treatment journey. You can also read our tummy tuck recovery guide for more information about the recovery process.
