Fleur De Lys Tumy Tuck in Turkey

The Fleur de Lys abdominoplasty is a specialized tummy tuck technique designed for patients who have a large amount of excess skin, both horizontally and vertically. This procedure is especially beneficial after massive weight loss (e.g., bariatric surgery), or for individuals with extensive sagging skin that cannot be addressed by a standard tummy tuck.

The name “Fleur de Lys” refers to the shape of the incision—a vertical cut in the midline combined with the traditional horizontal incision—allowing the surgeon to remove skin in both directions and achieve dramatic abdominal tightening.

Procedure Overview

During a Fleur de Lys tummy tuck, the surgeon:

• Makes a horizontal incision from hip to hip, low on the abdomen.
  
  
• Adds a vertical incision from the lower chest down to the pubic area.
  
  
• Removes significant amounts of skin and fat.
  
  
• Tightens and repairs abdominal muscles.
  
  
• Repositions the belly button for a natural, symmetrical appearance.
  
  
• Closes the incisions with careful suturing to minimize tension and support healing.
  
  

In some cases, liposuction is also performed to contour the flanks or upper abdomen for a smoother silhouette.

Who is a Good Candidate?

The Fleur de Lys tummy tuck is recommended for patients who:

• Have undergone major weight loss, either naturally or through bariatric surgery.
  
  
• Have extensive skin laxity that extends both vertically and horizontally.
  
  
• Are in good general health and close to their ideal weight.
  
  
• Do not smoke and can commit to proper post-operative care.
  
  
• Understand that this procedure leaves a visible vertical scar, but are willing to accept it in exchange for a smoother, firmer body shape.
  
  

This surgery is often part of a post-weight loss body lift plan.

Fleur de Lys Tummy Tuck Recovery

Recovery from a Fleur de Lys abdominoplasty may be slightly longer than a traditional tummy tuck due to the larger incisions and skin removal.

• Initial downtime: 2–3 weeks
  
  
• Compression garment: to reduce swelling and support healing
  
  
• Drainage tubes: may be placed to prevent fluid buildup
  
  
• Pain management: through prescribed medication
  
  
• Scar care: instructions provided for long-term scar fading
  
  

Patients should avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activity for 6–8 weeks. Full results are visible after swelling subsides and healing progresses—usually within 3–6 months.

Expected Results

The Fleur de Lys tummy tuck delivers dramatic improvement in abdominal contour:

• Flatter, firmer abdomen
  
  
• Elimination of both vertical and horizontal skin excess
  
  
• Improved posture and physical comfort
  
  
• Enhanced ability to wear fitted clothing
  
  
• Boost in body image and self-esteem
  
  

Scarring is permanent but fades over time and can be easily hidden under most clothing. The improvement in shape is typically long-lasting, especially with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
