Targeted Fat Removal for Body Refinement
Many individuals struggle with localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. Stubborn fat pockets can affect various body areas, impacting overall body proportions and self-confidence. Liposuction offers a solution by selectively removing these fat deposits, helping patients achieve more balanced and harmonious body contours.
Liposuction is not a weight loss solution but a body contouring procedure Best results achieved in patients close to their ideal weight
Skin elasticity plays a role in final contouring results
An internal laser device may be used during the procedure for additional skin tightening. Maintaining a stable weight is crucial for long-lasting results
Multiple areas can often be treated in a single session
Some temporary swelling and bruising is normal post-procedure
How much fat can be safely removed during liposuction?
While there’s no strict rule, we assume that up to %10(in liters) of total body weight (in kg) can be removed safely in a single session.
Will the fat come back after liposuction?
Fat cells removed during liposuction do not grow back. However, remaining fat cells can expand if significant weight gain occurs. Maintaining a stable weight through diet and exercise helps ensure long-lasting results.
How long is the recovery period after liposuction?
Most patients can return to work within 1-2 weeks, depending on the extent of the procedure. Strenuous activities should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. Complete results are typically visible within 3-6 months as swelling fully subsides.
Can liposuction be combined with other procedures?
Yes, liposuction is often combined with other body contouring procedures such as tummy tucks, breast surgeries, or fat transfer techniques.
What’s the difference between traditional liposuction and newer techniques? Traditional liposuction uses mechanical suction to remove fat. Newer techniques like laser or ultrasound-assisted liposuction use energy to liquefy fat before removal, potentially allowing for easier extraction and skin tightening.
What happens if I gain weight after liposuction?
While treated areas may gain less fat than before, fat can accumulate in other areas of the body.
Can liposuction help with cellulite?
While liposuction can improve body contours, it’s not specifically designed to treat cellulite. In some cases, it may improve the appearance of cellulite, but other treatments might be more effective for this concern.
