About the clinic
A mommy makeover at Op. Dr. Gülsüm Barutcu’s clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, combines several body contouring procedures into one surgical session. This personalized treatment helps mothers restore their pre-pregnancy figures by addressing the abdomen, breasts, and stubborn fat deposits at once. Dr. Barutcu is a female plastic surgeon and a member of ISAPS who has performed 2,000+ procedures.
Advanced Surgical Techniques
The procedure typically includes a tummy tuck, breast surgery, and VASER liposuction. Dr. Barutcu uses a staged approach to keep the patient safe. She begins with breast work, such as a lift or augmentation, and follows with abdominal contouring. The surgery uses VASER ultrasound technology to remove fat. This method targets fat cells while sparing nerves and blood vessels. This results in less bruising and a smoother recovery compared to older methods. If the patient chooses breast augmentation, the clinic uses high-quality brands like Motiva, Mentor, or Polytech.
Recovery and Patient Safety
Safety is a priority, so total operative time is kept under 7 hours. A board-certified anaesthesiologist manages the general anaesthesia, and the hospital provides ICU standby for extra security. Patients spend 2 nights in a fully accredited private hospital in Istanbul. The recovery process involves the following stages:
- Initial Stay: A total of 7–10 days in Turkey is recommended for initial healing.
- Garments: Patients wear compression garments for 6 weeks to support the new contours.
- Work and Activity: Most people return to desk work after 2–3 weeks and may resume gym activities after 8 weeks.
- Final Results: While swelling decreases early on, the final body shape is visible at 6 months.
Personalized Care and Support
Op. Dr. Gülsüm Barutcu provides direct follow-up care for all international patients. Before the surgery, patients undergo blood tests and cardiac workups if they are over 50. After returning home, patients stay in touch with Dr. Barutcu through WhatsApp at specific milestones. The clinic also includes lymphatic drainage sessions to help reduce swelling. The package for international visitors often includes VIP airport transfers and luxury hotel stays to make the trip comfortable.

Op. Dr. Gülsüm Barutcu — Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery: more details about the clinic
Turkey, Istanbul
Op. Dr. Gülsüm Barutcu is a specialist clinic in Istanbul's Bakırköy district. The facility operates as a private surgical practice. All operations take place in fully accredited private hospitals. Dr. Gülsüm Barutcu leads the clinic, focusing on aesthetic and reconstructive procedures for local and international patients.### Professional Achievements and Safety StandardsDr. Gülsüm Barutcu is a board-certified plastic surgeon with over 8 years of experience. She has personally performed **over 2,000 procedures** for patients from more than 40 countries. Her professional memberships include:
- International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
- American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
- British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS)
- Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (TPRECD)
Patient safety follows strict hospital-level protocols. Board-certified anesthesiologists perform all sedation, and every procedure uses sterile, single-use surgical kits. The facility provides 24/7 nursing care with dedicated ICU support on standby.
### Specialized Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeryThe clinic focuses on high-precision body contouring and facial rejuvenation. Every surgical plan matches the patient's anatomy and aesthetic goals. Dr. Barutcu publishes research in international journals and lectures at ISAPS congresses.Body Contouring and Mommy Makeover
The clinic performs complex body surgeries, including Mommy Makeover combinations. These procedures typically pair abdominoplasty with breast surgery and liposuction in a single session. Combined treatments are planned to last no longer than 7 hours for safety.
- VASER Liposuction: Ultrasound emulsifies fat for precise muscle sculpting.
- Abdominoplasty: Full muscle repair treats diastasis recti (separated abdominal muscles).
- BBL: Brazilian Butt Lift uses fat transfer for natural volume enhancement.
- Post-Bariatric Surgery: Lower body lifts and arm lifts after significant weight loss.
Facial Rejuvenation and Rhinoplasty
Facial procedures reposition tissue layers rather than just stretching skin. The clinic offers the Deep Plane Facelift, which lifts the SMAS layer and ligaments as a single unit. This creates a natural look by returning facial volume to its original position.
Rhinoplasty services cover both primary and complex revision cases. The team also performs buccal fat removal and jawline enhancement. Most facial surgeries require a one-night hospital stay for monitoring.
### Advanced Medical TechnologyThe clinic uses **VASER technology** for all advanced liposuction procedures. This ultrasound-based system targets fat cells while sparing blood vessels and nerves. The result is less bruising and smoother recovery than traditional liposuction. Before surgery, all patients complete a standard pre-operative panel. This includes metabolic tests, coagulation studies, and ECGs for those over 50.### Services for International PatientsThe clinic serves many patients from the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, and the Gulf region. The international team coordinates the entire medical journey, including hospital admission and local logistics.Support services for international visitors include:
- Online consultations via Zoom or WhatsApp, available 6 days a week
- VIP airport transfers and luxury hotel arrangements
- Professional translation support throughout the hospital stay
- Personalized follow-up directly with Dr. Barutcu via WhatsApp
Recovery follows a structured remote monitoring schedule. Patients send progress photos at week 1, week 4, month 3, and month 6. The medical team provides digital guidance on scar care, compression garments, and returning to physical activity.
