Hey! Do you want to have a flat stomach, nymph thighs, discreet buttocks, or thin knees? Liposuction may be a solution for you. Come see why.

Liposuction is an aesthetic surgical procedure which aims fat removal located in certain parts of the body (at the level of the stomach, buttocks, knees, etc.) The amount of fat removed during liposuction is presented in volume and aims exclusively to correct a form so as not to lose weight.

Sagging mainly occurs on the body of a person who loses excess weight. Excess fat accumulates in the arms, legs, neck, and abdomen. This means both visual and psychological problems. Thanks to the rapid development of technology, such situations are easily avoided. It also makes their life easier by opting for liposuction instead of heavy diets in people who want to have a more beautiful body. If you want to lose weight, liposuction surgery is unfortunately not right for you, indeed, it is an effective way to get fat removal.

What You Need To Know Before The Operation:

  • Stop using blood transfusions such as aspirin at least two weeks before the operation,
  • Patients with anemia should inform their doctor before the operation, it is possible to support the body with vitamins and iron,
  • Lymphatic drainage massage is performed.

How Long Will It Take To Recover?

Recovering from liposuction and getting back to your daily routine will take time and patience. When patients leave our clinic to return to their hotel, they usually feel groggy for about 12 hours or even overnight. Rest assured that we will be there on the day of your discharge from the hospital to help you get to your accommodation comfortably and easily. Most patients experience nausea within the first 24 to 48 hours after the liposuction operation.

Following a liposuction procedure, you will be placed in a compression garment that covers all treated areas. Do not remove the garment unless instructed to do so by the doctor. The entire liposuction area can remain numb for four to eight weeks.

It is essential to start walking as soon as possible to minimize the risk of swelling. In a week, you should feel well enough to return to work. You will start to feel better after a week and should be able to return to work. In fact, the liposuction recovery period can vary depending on the amount of fat that we are going to eliminate. If we remove a large amount of fat from several different places on your body, the recovery period may be longer than if we only remove a small amount from one area.

The stitches are removed or dissolve on their own within the first week to 10 days during the liposuction healing process. Strenuous activities should be avoided for about a month. Although most bruising and swelling disappear within three weeks, some swelling may persist for six months or more.

How Long Does Liposuction Last?

The duration of liposuction can vary from patient to patient, so it does not only depend on the procedure but also on their lifestyle. To maintain the results of your liposuction, it is important to keep a healthy diet and exercise routine.

In this perspective, for some patients, liposuction lasts 20 years after the intervention is performed.

Is Liposuction Painful?

To undergo any type of surgery, patients are sometimes anxious, uncertain, or even hesitant before the procedure, to know if liposuction is painful, and this is normal. Nevertheless, during the liposuction procedure, the patients will be under general or local anesthesia depending on the surgeon’s point of view based on the size of the operation, the patients must be awake or not. Whether awake or not, the surgeon will administer enough anesthesia to numb the pain.

Bruises are very common after liposuction, they are painful at first, but usually disappear within a few weeks. Swelling is also a common side effect of liposuction; it can take up to six months to settle. Restricted mobility can also be a side effect of liposuction. Numbness can be expected for a few weeks.

Does Liposuction Permanently Remove Fat?

People who have had liposuction can do light sports after two weeks and heavy sports after three weeks, but this requires doctor’s approval. The body will take its final shape after 6 to 9 months.

Liposuction permanently removes fat cells from specific areas of the body through a suction tube called a cannula.
