How is Abdominoplasty Performed?
An incision is made in the abdomen according to the scope of the operation to be performed on the person, the shape and length of the incision may vary. Abdominal skin tissue is scraped off. The stripped abdominal skin and underlying fat tissue are thinned, excess tissue is removed and weakened abdominal muscles are repaired.
If there is excess skin in the upper abdomen, the surgery may extend to the upper border of the abdomen where the ribs begin, and the upper abdomen is also stretched.

After this process is completed, the skin is closed with self-melting sutures and tapes.
