Liposuction (Fat Removal)

Treatment Content

Liposuction is not a weight loss surgery as it is thought, but a body shaping surgery. Liposuction is the only proven method today for fats that you cannot melt despite sports and diet.

As a matter of fact, since it is not possible for fat cells to multiply in number, fat will not form again in the area where liposuction is performed, unless you suddenly disrupt your eating pattern.

Treatment Process

The procedure can vary from person to person, but in general;

Liposuction (Fat Removal) Surgery

Many technologies such as ultrasound energy, laser-assisted, or water-assisted have come to the agenda for liposuction so far.

As a surgeon who has experienced all of these technologies, I must say that the most important thing that determines success in liposuction is that our patient has good skin elasticity, is young and uses a correct surgical technique with a thin cannula.

Frequently Asked Questions

Liposuction is a surgical procedure to remove fat from the body. This procedure allows the body contours to be reshaped by suctioning out unwanted fat deposits.

Liposuction is suitable for individuals who have fat accumulation in certain areas despite a healthy lifestyle and want to get rid of the fat in these areas. However, it is generally applied to people with a healthy body mass index.

Liposuction is usually performed under local anesthesia. During the procedure, small incisions are made in the skin and fat tissue is sucked out using a vacuum device or a thin cannula. In this way, unwanted fat is removed and the body is shaped.

The postoperative healing process can vary from person to person, but usually takes a few weeks. Swelling, bruising and mild pain are normal for the first few days. Patients can usually return to their daily activities within a few days, but it is recommended to avoid heavy lifting or exercise.

Liposuction usually provides permanent results because the removed fat cells do not come back. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle after surgery is important to prevent unwanted fat accumulation.

Liposuction is usually used to remove fat from areas such as the abdomen, waist, buttocks, thighs, knees, back and chin. However, it can also be performed on various other parts of the body.
