Liposuction

Liposuction (Fat Removal Surgery)

Liposuction, also known as fat removal surgery, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that was first introduced in 1980. It involves the removal of excess fat using a controlled vacuum system through specialized cannulas or medical syringes. Liposuction is designed to correct uneven or localized fat distribution and improve overall body contour.

Purpose of Liposuction

The primary goal of liposuction is not weight loss. Instead, it focuses on eliminating stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise, even when patients strictly follow healthy lifestyle routines. Liposuction helps reshape and sculpt the body, creating a more harmonious and proportionate appearance.

Procedure Duration and Candidates

The duration of liposuction typically ranges from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the number and size of treated areas.

Liposuction provides the best results for individuals who are at a normal weight or slightly overweight and are bothered by localized fat accumulation. These fat deposits are often influenced by genetic and hormonal factors, making them resistant to traditional weight-loss methods.

Common Fat Accumulation Areas

Fat distribution differs between men and women:

  • Women: abdomen, hips, thighs

  • Men: abdominal region and flanks

Although diet and exercise can help reduce overall body weight, they often fail to significantly change fat accumulation in these specific areas. In such cases, surgical liposuction is the most effective solution to permanently remove excess fat and achieve a more defined body contour.

Liposuction is performed not only on the abdomen, lower back and hips, but also on the neck, under the chin, breasts, arms, legs and around the knees.

 

The best candidates for liposuction are those who have realistic expectations, can think healthily, and are satisfied with the results of liposuction. Candidates for liposuction should be over the age of 18. This is the age limit set for legal reasons. Our surgeons will give you the necessary support in this regard. In short, any healthy person who could not get rid of their excess fat despite regular healthy diet and exercise can undergo liposuction.

Liposuction is an extremely reliable surgical procedure and does not pose any serious risks or complications. It only carries certain risks that can occur with any surgical procedure, such as nerve damage, infection, bleeding and skin ulcers. However, the probability of occurrence of these risks is zero.

We have different types of liposuction as Classical, Vaser and Laser which is not used anymore because of its low function.
