Upper Body Contour Package in Turkey
The upper body contour package is a combined cosmetic surgery approach designed to improve the shape and firmness of the upper body. This package typically involves arm lift surgery (brachioplasty) and tummy tuck surgery (abdominoplasty) performed during the same treatment plan. These procedures focus on removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues in areas where loose skin and reduced skin elasticity may occur.
Plan your upper body contour package with Revitalize
The Upper Body Contour combination pairs arm and abdominal surgery. Include your plans for help with everyday tasks when discussing your stay and return home.
Read about the individual procedures: arm lift, tummy tuck. The named combination is a starting point for assessment; your surgeon determines suitability, surgical scope and whether treatment should be staged.
Your first enquiry starts a discussion with our patient support team. We pass your records and goals to the relevant doctor, organise a video consultation where appropriate, and set out the proposed treatment, facility and costs in a personal written plan. Revitalize in Turkey brings more than two decades of experience supporting patients travelling to İzmir.
Your agreed treatment arrangements can include private airport collection, hospital and check-up transfers, and bilingual assistance with communication and daily practical needs. Our Mandarin Grove accommodation in Urla offers private rooms, breakfast and dinner, and 24/7 practical support. Medical care and clinical follow-up remain with your treating team; accommodation support does not replace them.
After you return home, our aftercare communication helps relay requested progress updates to your doctor and coordinate further discussions. Check available UK meetings, patient reviews and real patient videos. Individual experiences do not predict your result.

A tummy tuck before-and-after example
For arm lifting and abdominal surgery, a coordinated plan matters as much as the package name. Read why patients choose Revitalize in Turkey to understand how our own team supports preparation, your stay in İzmir and communication after you return home. Ask us to confirm the arrangements for your particular combination in writing.
Our arm-lift assessment and scarring guide can help you prepare questions about the arm component. Your surgeon must separately assess the tummy tuck and whether both procedures should be combined.
What treatment guarantee applies to my proposed combination?
Before booking arm lifting and abdominal surgery, read our treatment guarantee terms and exclusions alongside your written plan. The published surgical policy provides a one-year period unless your plan states otherwise; the clinical team assesses whether a complication or medically necessary revision is covered. This is not a promise of a particular cosmetic result. Exclusions apply, and travel and accommodation for an accepted return treatment are at the patient’s expense. Ask for any point affecting your procedures to be clarified before you book.
Questions about your arrangements
What should my quotation include?
Ask for the exact procedures, clinician, hospital, clinical fees, accommodation, meals, transfers and follow-up to be listed. Confirm exclusions, companion costs and possible additional nights before booking.
Can I use the package name to decide my travel dates?
No. Confirm your stay and review appointments with the treating team before booking travel. The proposed plan and your recovery determine the arrangements; a package title is not medical clearance.
Upper body contouring procedures are often considered by individuals who have experienced significant weight changes, pregnancy, or natural aging processes that affect the skin and soft tissues of the abdomen and upper arms. By addressing multiple areas during the same surgical plan, the treatment aims to improve overall body proportions and contour.
Each treatment plan is developed individually based on the patient’s anatomy, medical history, and aesthetic goals.
What Is an Upper Body Contour Package?
An upper body contour package is a combination of surgical procedures designed to reshape and tighten the upper body, particularly the abdomen and upper arms.
The package typically includes:
- Arm lift (brachioplasty)
- Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
These procedures are often performed together to address areas where excess skin and soft tissue laxity may develop. The combined approach allows surgeons to improve body contour in multiple areas within a coordinated surgical plan.
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
Arm lift surgery, medically known as brachioplasty, is performed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms. Loose skin in this area may occur due to aging, weight loss, or genetic factors.
During the procedure:
- Excess skin and tissue are removed from the upper arm
- The remaining skin is tightened
- The arm contour is reshaped
Brachioplasty aims to improve the appearance of the upper arms by creating a firmer and more proportionate contour.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that addresses excess skin and weakened muscles in the abdominal area.
The procedure typically involves:
- Removal of excess abdominal skin
- Tightening of the abdominal muscles
- Reshaping of the abdominal contour
- Repositioning of the belly button when necessary
Abdominoplasty may be considered when diet and exercise alone cannot correct loose abdominal skin or muscle separation.
Who May Be Suitable for the Upper Body Contour Package
The upper body contour package may be considered for individuals who wish to address loose skin and tissue laxity affecting both the arms and abdomen.
Potential candidates may include:
- Individuals with loose skin in the upper arms
- Patients with excess abdominal skin or weakened abdominal muscles
- People who have experienced significant weight loss
- Individuals with post-pregnancy abdominal changes
- Patients in stable overall health
Candidates are usually advised to maintain a stable body weight before undergoing body contouring procedures.
Preparation Before Surgery
Preparing for combined body contouring surgery involves a detailed consultation and medical evaluation.
Preparation may include:
- Medical history review
- Physical examination
- Assessment of skin quality and body contour
- Discussion of surgical goals and expectations
- Review of medications and health conditions
Patients may be advised to:
- Stop smoking before surgery
- Avoid medications that increase bleeding risk
- Maintain stable weight before the procedure
- Arrange assistance during recovery
Proper preparation helps reduce surgical risks and supports better healing.
How the Upper Body Contour Package Is Performed
The procedures included in the package are usually performed during the same surgical session under general anesthesia.
The general process may involve:
- Arm lift surgery – an incision is made along the inner arm to remove excess skin and reshape the upper arm.
- Tummy tuck surgery – an incision is made along the lower abdomen to remove excess skin and tighten abdominal muscles.
- The surgical areas are carefully reshaped and closed with sutures.
The total duration of surgery depends on the complexity of the procedures and the patient’s individual treatment plan.
Recovery After Upper Body Contouring
Recovery varies between individuals and depends on the extent of the procedures performed.
Patients may experience:
- Swelling and bruising
- Temporary discomfort
- Tightness in the treated areas
- Limited movement during early recovery
Doctors commonly recommend:
- Wearing compression garments
- Avoiding strenuous activities during early healing
- Walking gently to support circulation
- Attending follow-up appointments
Many individuals gradually return to normal daily activities over several weeks.
Possible Risks and Complications
As with any surgical procedure, upper body contouring surgery carries potential risks.
Possible complications may include:
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Scarring
- Fluid accumulation
- Delayed wound healing
- Temporary numbness
Discussing risks and expected outcomes with a qualified surgeon helps patients make informed decisions before undergoing surgery.

Conclusion
This pairing suits patients who have lost a significant amount of weight and are left with loose skin in two places at once — arms and abdomen — where excess skin rather than fat is the problem. Both procedures leave permanent scars, and the arm scar in particular is visible in short sleeves; how it settles over the first year is worth discussing honestly before you book. Our team can show you where the scars sit and confirm whether your weight has been stable long enough for surgery.
