Simple Guide to Liposuction in Turkey 🩺
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery intended to remove stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise and achieve the patient’s ideal body shape. This is performed through a double action:
- Fat Burning: excess fat is eliminated from unwanted areas, such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, arms, and neck, with the use of a high-tech suction-device called a cannula.
- Body Contouring: removed fat cells can then be reallocated to achieve more harmonious body proportions, for example, on the breasts, hips or the buttocks through a BBL (also known as liposculpture in Turkey)
Should You Undergo Lipoaspiration?
If you have been unable to burn stubborn fats through traditional methods, liposuction can greatly enhance your body aesthetics. However, surgical fat removal is not a weight loss procedure. It is a body sculpting operation.
If you meet all medical criteria and are willing to commit to healthy habits after surgery, the results of your liposuction in Turkey can be truly astounding.

Types of Liposuction Surgery
Different liposuction techniques have different degrees of difficulty and not all surgeons can perform all types of liposuction. At Care in Turkey, we can perform all of the below.
Here are the most common types of liposuction in Turkey:
Tumescent is the most common type of liposuction. It involves injecting a solution of local anesthetic and epinephrine into the target area to minimize bleeding and discomfort during the procedure.
A High Definition Lipo a specialized form of fat removal that is used to sculpt the abdominal muscles to create a more defined appearance. The technique involves removing fat from specific areas around the abdominal muscles to enhance body appearance. It is usually performed using Vaser.
The Vaser technique uses high-frequency ultrasound waves to liquefy fat cells before they are removed with a cannula. It is usually the preferred technique to treat areas of high fat accumulation, such as the abdomen, the thighs and hips, showing formidable results.
This type of fat removal uses laser technology to liquefy fat cells before they are removed with a cannula. It is frequently used for more sensitive areas of the body, such as the neck, jaw and arms, being less invasive for the skin.
The male treatment, also known as Spartan Body Sculpting, is a specialized Vaser variation involving abdominal contouring and fat reallocation to create a 6-pack or 8-pack abdomen.
Most Common Areas for Liposuction in Turkey
Lipid extraction can be performed anywhere in the body where fat accumulation takes place.
These are the most common procedures for liposuction in Turkey:
The upper arms, next to the shoulders, have a high tendency of fat accumulation. Hence why arm fat extraction is one of the most common procedures.
Facial fat extraction is generally performed on the cheek area, also known as a bichectomy. Due to its advantages in skin tightening, laser extraction is the preferred facial fat removal technique.
Thigh fat can lead to friction and pain while walking, hence why extraction of excess lipids is a common choice, generally performed through vaser.

These incisions are typically less than half an inch in length and are usually placed in inconspicuous locations. With proper care and healing, they will heal and fade over time, resulting in minimal scarring.
