Liposuction

Liposuction is a body modeling method that is popular in modern plastic surgery. It is an easy and effective way to create perfect shapes. During surgery, excess fat is removed from the problem area through thin tubes using a vacuum apparatus.

Liposuction is performed on the following areas of the body and face:

  • Chin Liposuction
  • Arm liposuction
  • Liposuction of the abdomen
  • Liposuction of thighs (inner and outer side)
  • Knee liposuction
  • Liposuction of the buttocks

For men, an operation is recommended to remove adipose tissue from the back, abdomen and chest, followed by drawing the relief and contours of the body.

The result is a slim figure in just one day. No other non-surgical method of losing weight will give such a quick result. However, do not consider liposuction as one of the methods of weight loss. Before thinking about surgery, you need to reconsider your lifestyle and diet, exercise and, in general, do your best to lose weight. Because liposuction is not a magic wand that can turn you into a picture from a magazine, but a way to reshape your body. If you continue to lead an unhealthy lifestyle after the operation, the body will quickly return to its previous shape, and all the efforts of the surgeon will be in vain.

But liposuction can be a good idea if you are not comfortable with how the fat is distributed. We are all individuals. Sometimes, even having significantly lost weight, a person cannot in any way get rid of fat deposits in a particular zone. For example, even with exercise and a low-calorie diet, it is almost impossible to get rid of fat deposits above the knees or double chin. A small tummy or too rounded hips are found even in the most slender women. In such situations, liposuction comes to the rescue - it allows you to restore harmonious proportions.

Types of liposuction at the K+31 clinic

Types of liposuction:

  • Ultrasonic liposuction is the destruction of fat by exposing the tissues to ultrasonic waves from the device.
  • 3D lipomodeling - complete correction of the figure and contours of the body, relief drawing (cubes on the abdomen, muscles of the chest, hips, back).
  • Vibration liposuction - destruction and removal of fat cells using high-frequency vibrations.
  • Lipofilling - removal of fatty tissue from the problem area and pumping fat to other places for body shaping.

Depending on the volume of body fat, the plastic surgeon chooses the type of liposuction:

  • Dry. With the help of this type of liposuction, small accumulations of adipose tissue (up to 1.5 liters) are removed. During the operation, cannulas are inserted into problem areas and the fat is mechanically destroyed.
  • Wet. A special solution consisting of saline, adrenaline and lidocaine is injected into the fat trap (accumulation of adipose tissue). The solution destroys fat cells. To speed up the operation, ultrasound or a laser device is used. This liposuction operation allows you to get rid of 5 liters of fat.
  • Super wet. The operation allows you to remove fat in large volumes (up to 10 liters). For this, a special solution is used that dissolves fat accumulations and constricts blood vessels and lymphatic ducts.

When choosing the type of surgical intervention, it is better to stop at the PAL Liposculptor device. With its help, the plastic surgeon will perform the least traumatic operation. The cannulas of the apparatus destroy and remove adipose tissue with reciprocating movements.

Contraindications for surgery

  • Endocrine obesity.
  • Diabetes mellitus.
  • Oncological disease.
  • Violation of the integrity of the skin in the area of the operation.
  • Chills, temperature on the day of surgery.

Key points of the operation

  • This operation is performed under combined general anesthesia (endotracheal anesthesia) and local anesthesia.
  • In case of a small amount of fat deposits, the operation is performed under epidural anesthesia.
  • The average duration of the operation varies from 30 minutes to 1.5-2 hours.
  • About 24 hours hospital stay.

Rehabilitation of the clinic patient after the procedure

  • Wearing compression stockings for 30 days.
  • No physical activity for 1 to 3 weeks.
  • Stop taking drugs that reduce blood clotting (only in consultation with your doctor);
  • Refusal to visit the bath, sauna, solarium, swimming pool.

Also, the patient should remember that plastic surgery does not help in the fight against genetics and overeating. Therefore, after the procedure, it is recommended to change the lifestyle. It is necessary to follow a diet, and a month later he returned to physical activity. In this case, it will be possible to save the result of the surgical intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't diet after surgery, where will you store fat?

After liposuction, fat cells are destroyed forever. But a sedentary lifestyle and lack of diet will lead to the accumulation of fat in other places. It should also be borne in mind that the procedure will not be able to remove visceral (internal fat). It accumulates and decreases only thanks to proper nutrition and cardio loads.

What does the skin look like after liposuction?

It all depends on the individual. In the normal state of the skin (elasticity, increased turgor, tone), it will independently acquire new contours and tighten itself. If there are stretch marks, sagging, it is better to carry out cosmetic procedures before liposuction.

What are the complications after liposuction?

After the operation, bruises and hematomas may appear at the puncture sites, which disappear in 2-3 weeks. Patients experience a slight increase in volume due to temporary swelling. To reduce swelling and speed up recovery, it is recommended to wear compression underwear. In rare cases, bleeding also occurs.
