Liposuction is the process of removing subcutaneous fat from the body with the help of thin pipes. With the help of thin pipes and cables, it collects the fat under the skin and transmits it to the vacuum machine.
Before this procedure, a special liquid is given under the skin. The purpose of giving this liquid is to ensure that the procedure is done more comfortably and with less damage to the tissues. The oils come as a molten solution mixed with the given liquid and are collected in the chamber of the vacuum device. Fat removal surgery is a very effective method that has been used for a long time. Fat removal is definitely not a weight loss process. It is a body shaping process.
It is a method that works after losing weight. It is suitable for correcting areas that are difficult to give resistant after weight loss. It helps you to have a much more aesthetic appearance after losing weight.
It is not a way to get rid of cellulite. It can provide some benefit in cellulite. Cellulite treatment is a more complex treatment. Different applications can also be included in the treatment of cellulite. It is not a procedure that corrects skin and abdominal wall sagging. It is not a substitute for tummy tuck surgery. It does not guarantee that you will not gain weight after the surgery.
The result may be less satisfying in patients who gain and lose weight frequently, in advanced age and in postpartum patients. Adults of normal weight and height who have fat deposits (especially near the hips, belly, inside of the knees, bagels on the side of the waist) that cause regional deformity in their body get maximum benefit from this application.
Successful results are obtained in patients who do not have too much skin excess and sagging called gynecomastia, which manifests itself in the form of breast enlargement in young men. It is an ideal method for reshaping and retouching the area after neck lift, tummy tuck and breast reduction surgeries.
Hip areas, hips, abdomen and waist circumference (navel), inner and outer thighs, facing each other of the knees, neck, upper arm, breast (male and female) are the areas that patients frequently apply for correction. Bruising, swelling and decreased sensation may occur in the applied areas after normal liposuction. These findings, which occur in these regions, pass over time. It is necessary to use a corset for 20-30 days after the procedure. Thinning occurs as the weeks pass, as if the person is getting weaker. Although it takes 3-6 months for complete thinning, noticeable results occur within 3-4 weeks.
Liposuction is not considered a risky surgery if the person does not have a serious disease such as heart, hypertension or diabetes. When it is applied to relatively young patients (under 60 years of age) with close to normal weight, the risk of anesthesia is also low. Since liposuction is an operation performed with tiny incisions, there is no serious side effect or harm.
Skin burns are a rare, heat-related complication of liposuction using ultrasonic or laser. The probability is very low when done under control. The most common side effect that can occur is contour irregularities on the skin. This situation can be corrected with additional actions to be taken.
