Liposuction

Liposuction (fat removal) is an aesthetic operation performed to surgically reduce or shape stubborn fat tissues accumulated in body areas. Although it should not be considered as a weight loss method, it is an effective procedure to solve local fat problems that cannot be eliminated with sports and diet. Thanks to liposuction, a more proportionate, tight and aesthetic appearance can be achieved in certain parts of the body.

Candidates

• Local Fat Problems: Those who have regional fat accumulation in areas such as the abdomen, hips, waist, back, thighs, arms or under the chin,
• Those Who Want to Improve Body Proportion: Those who have unwanted bulges or asymmetrical areas on their bodies despite diet and exercise,
• Those with Suitable General Health Status: People who do not have serious chronic diseases or anesthesia restrictions and have realistic expectations,
• Those with a Regular Lifestyle: Those who care about healthy eating and regular exercise habits to preserve liposuction results.

In order for liposuction to be a successful method, factors such as skin elasticity, degree of fat accumulation and general health status are important. The suitability of the procedure is decided after the evaluation made by a specialist surgeon.

Benefits of Liposuction

• Regional Slimming: As excess fat tissue in targeted areas is removed, a slimmer and more shaped silhouette is achieved.
• Improvement of Body Contour: It provides a more balanced body appearance by intervening in disproportionate areas such as the waist, abdomen and hips.
• Personalized Application: Since each patient's body structure and needs are different, the liposuction procedure can be planned individually.
• High Patient Satisfaction: Liposuction can produce successful results in suitable candidates and increase a person's self-confidence.

Application Process

1. Preliminary Inspection and Planning: Your doctor will perform a detailed physical examination to evaluate the areas to be treated. The liposuction technique (classic, laser, vaser, etc.) that is appropriate is decided based on your expectations, skin quality, and fat amount.
2. Preparation for Surgery: Necessary tests such as blood tests are performed. If you smoke or use blood thinners, it is important to prepare for the operation in accordance with your doctor's recommendations.
3. Surgical intervention: Liposuction is usually performed under general or local anesthesia with sedation. Small incisions are made and excess fat tissue is vacuumed with the help of cannulas. The procedure time may vary depending on the number of target areas and the amount of fat.
4. Post-Procedure Care: After the operation, it is recommended to use a special corset or bandage to reduce swelling and bruising and to support the skin's adaptation to its new shape.

The Healing Process

• The First Days: Mild pain, swelling, bruising and edema are considered normal. You can get through this period more easily with the painkillers prescribed by your doctor.
• Return to Daily Life: You can usually return to light work and daily activities within 1 week. It is recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise and work requiring physical effort for 4-6 weeks.
• Controls: The healing process is monitored during regular check-up sessions, and the duration of use of the corset and other care recommendations are updated by your doctor.
• Permanent Results: The new shape of your body after liposuction is largely permanent as long as you maintain your weight. Regular nutrition and exercise help maintain the results long-term.
