Asked By:TinTurkey in Istanbul

I'm overweight. I'm 46 years old ,never had children. 175 cm in height and 104 kilos. My BMI is in the obese range . I feel l I could easily lose and tighten up the other parts of my body if my center core was stronger. I am in good health. No illnesses , allergies. I don't smoke and rarely drink. Would I be able to get a tummy tuck? If so what is the price range for doing so? I'm located in Istanbul, Turkey, but I go to America once a year during the summer .
