Liposuction-Fat Removal

Liposuction is the removal of fats that have settled in some parts of the body and do not go away despite diet and exercise by vacuuming method.

Fat deposits in areas such as abdomen, waist, hips, buttocks, arms, back, cheeks, jowl, breast, ankle are eliminated by liposuction and allow you to have smoother body contours. In the liposuction process, the effect is permanent, especially since fat cells are removed, not fat. When a certain weight control is achieved, the fat does not recur and the body maintains its shape.

Who Can Have Liposuction?

From the age of 18, people whose skin is flexible enough and who are not overweight but who complain of regional fat deposits can have liposuction. It can also be applied to the armpit to prevent sweating.

Although liposuction is not a weight loss method, it can also be applied to overweight patients. It does not help to lose weight and provides the body to have more prominent lines.

  • Those who cannot get in the desired shape despite diet and exercise
  • Those with regional body fat
  • People with sufficiently elastic skin
  • They can get the desired result from the liposuction procedure.

Liposuction is known to have a high success rate in eliminating stubborn and regional fats as long as post-operative instructions are followed. During liposuction, only a certain amount of fat can be removed from the treated area. For this reason, it is very important to specify your expectations and find out if it is possible for you to have the 'ideal' body image you have in mind.

How is Liposuction Operation Performed?

The patient is interviewed about their expectations and the results of the operation. After a general health assessment, regional fats are examined and the parts to be treated are determined. The operation is performed by placing a narrow channel in the skin and breaking down the fat cells with vibration and then pulling them out by vacuuming method. Since the incisions are made in mm diameter, there is no obvious scar on the skin. The operation time may vary according to the size of the liposuction area.

Liposuction operation is performed under hospital conditions in the operating theatre and under the supervision of an anaesthetist. Local anaesthesia and intravenous anaesthesia are preferred. If the area to be liposuctioned is very small, only local anaesthesia may be sufficient.

Liposuction may take 1-5 hours depending on the location and size of the area to be applied. The cannulas opened for the application usually do not require stitches or 1-2 stitches are sufficient. In case of need, resistance is placed in the cannula holes according to the operation and the fluid accumulated inside is discharged.

After Liposuction Operation

In liposuction operation, the patient can usually get up on the same day and continue his/her social life. Postoperative pain is very little and can be relieved with painkillers.  After the operation, a bandage and a special corset is worn for the patient. It is important for the patient to continue wearing the corset for 1 month and to avoid heavy sports for the first month or two to get better results.

There may be colour changes in the liposuction area. Again, there may be tingling, swelling and burning sensation and these complaints disappear spontaneously within a week or two. There may be purplish colour changes in the vacuum applied areas. There may be swelling, tingling and burning sensation.

The operation scars heal and disappear between 2-6 months.
