Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about mini tummy tuck in Turkey
What is a mini tummy tuck?
A mini tummy tuck (partial abdominoplasty) addresses loose skin and fat below the belly button only. It involves a shorter incision, no navel repositioning, and focuses on the lower abdomen. It's ideal for those with minor concerns who don't need a full tummy tuck.
What's the difference between mini and full tummy tuck?
A full tummy tuck addresses the entire abdomen, repositions the navel, and tightens abdominal muscles. A mini tummy tuck has a shorter scar, targets only below the navel, doesn't move the belly button, and has faster recovery. Your surgeon will recommend the best option during consultation.
Am I a good candidate for mini tummy tuck?
Ideal candidates have excess skin or fat concentrated below the belly button, good skin above the navel, minimal muscle separation, are close to ideal body weight, and have realistic expectations. It's perfect for those with a small "pooch" after pregnancy or weight loss.
How long do I need to stay in Turkey?
We recommend 6-7 nights in Istanbul. Day 1: Arrival. Day 2: Consultation and pre-op tests. Day 3: Surgery with overnight hospital stay. Day 4-6: Recovery at hotel with follow-ups. Day 7: Final check and departure.
Is mini tummy tuck safe in Turkey?
Yes. Our procedures are performed in JCI-accredited hospitals by board-certified plastic surgeons with extensive experience. Turkey is a leading destination for body contouring surgery with internationally recognized standards.
How visible will the scar be?
The mini tummy tuck scar is shorter than a full tummy tuck, typically 10-15cm, placed low along the bikini line. It's easily hidden by underwear or swimwear. Scars fade significantly over 12-18 months with proper care.
What is the recovery like?
Recovery is faster than a full tummy tuck. Expect swelling and discomfort for 1-2 weeks. Wear compression garment for 4-6 weeks. Most return to work within 1-2 weeks. Avoid strenuous activity for 4-6 weeks. Final results visible at 3-6 months.
Can I combine mini tummy tuck with other procedures?
Yes. Mini tummy tuck is commonly combined with liposuction of the flanks or hips for enhanced body contouring. Your surgeon will advise which combinations are safe and beneficial for your goals during consultation.
Will I lose weight with a mini tummy tuck?
A mini tummy tuck is a contouring procedure, not a weight loss surgery. It removes excess skin and small amounts of fat to create a flatter, more toned lower abdomen. You should be at or near your goal weight before surgery.
Are the results permanent?
Yes, the removed skin and fat are permanently gone. However, significant weight gain or pregnancy can affect results. Maintaining a stable weight through healthy diet and exercise preserves your contoured results long-term.
Why is mini tummy tuck cheaper in Turkey?
Lower operating costs, favorable exchange rates, high procedure volume, and government support for medical tourism allow premium care at lower prices. Quality and safety standards match or exceed Western clinics.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and cash payment. A deposit secures your booking, with the balance due before the procedure. All prices are fully inclusive with no hidden fees.
