FDL Tummy Tuck

What is FDL Tummy Tuck?

Fleur-de-Lis (FDL) tummy tuck is an advanced abdominoplasty procedure designed for individuals who have experienced massive weight loss and are left with significant skin sagging. Unlike traditional tummy tucks, the FDL technique removes excess skin both horizontally and vertically, creating a tighter, smoother, and more contoured abdomen.

This procedure is ideal for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery or those who have severe skin laxity in the abdominal area due to extreme weight loss.


When is FDL Tummy Tuck Recommended?

  • Patients who have lost a significant amount of weight after bariatric surgery
  • Individuals with excessive loose skin and reduced skin elasticity
  • Mothers wanting to eliminate excess skin post-pregnancy
  • People who struggle with sagging abdominal skin despite diet and exercise
  • Patients looking to enhance body contour and achieve a firmer appearance

Unlike standard abdominoplasty, FDL tummy tuck offers a more comprehensive correction of upper and middle abdominal skin laxity.


How is FDL Tummy Tuck Performed?

  • Surgery Duration: 3-5 hours
  • Type of Anesthesia: General anesthesia
  • Recovery Time: 4-6 weeks
  • Result Longevity: Long-lasting or permanent

During the procedure, the surgeon removes excess skin both horizontally and vertically, reshaping the abdominal area for a more sculpted appearance. Unlike traditional tummy tucks, the belly button is often repositioned due to the extensive skin removal. Muscles may also be tightened for a stronger abdominal wall.

The recovery process varies from patient to patient. For the first few weeks, a special compression garment is recommended, and patients can usually return to light activities within 2-4 weeks. Full recovery typically takes around 6 weeks.


Advantages of FDL Tummy Tuck

  • Flatter and firmer abdomen
  • Elimination of excessive loose skin
  • Enhanced body proportions and aesthetic balance
  • Strengthened abdominal muscles for better core support
  • Long-lasting and satisfying results

FDL tummy tuck not only removes excess skin and fat but also boosts self-confidence, improving the overall quality of life.

Gastric Sleeve surgery Gözde international hospital Izmir.

I am 12 days post op from having had gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey. My experience was positive overall and I received great care while in Izmir. My coordinator Devrim has been amazing from the beginning of the process and I’ve been able to message him at anytime for information and reassurance. I am genuinely grateful to my surgeon and all the staff at Gözde and I am looking to the future as a healthier and happier skinnier version of myself!

Went to Baypark

Went to Baypark, Istanbul 3 weeks ago and I can’t fault it. All the staff and the surgeon were spot on. The care I received was amazing and the surgeon came and checked on me every day. From start to finish any questions I had were answered by Ata or Selin. Would definitely recommend

My experience

I had my nose a year ago in Izmir by the lovely and very talented Dr. Damla Nihan Özdemir, the hospital was state of the art, it was run smoothly and I felt in safe hands. You also get a chaperone who helps explain things and sorts out transportation etc, mine was Batuhan Yetki who was lovely.
I would highly recommend this hospital and surgeon to others.

I had a very good experience using Gözde. I chose Özel Sağlık, which was a lovely hospital, spotless, and the staff there are amazing. My doctor was Dr. Ergin Arslan, whom I can't recommend enough. Peril was my coordinator and was always, and still is, on hand to help each time I message. I would definitely recommend.
