Who is liposuction suitable for?

Liposuction is particularly suitable for healthy adults with stable weight, good skin elasticity and localized fat deposits that persist despite diet and exercise. It is not a weight reduction procedure, but rather a targeted body contouring technique.

Is the result permanent?

The fat cells removed in the treatment area typically do not regrow in adulthood. However, with significant weight gain, remaining fat cells can enlarge, which is why maintaining a stable lifestyle remains important.

How long does the procedure take?

Depending on the number and size of the areas treated, liposuction typically takes about 20 minutes to 3 hours. When treating multiple zones, such as the abdomen, flanks, and thighs, you should expect 1 to 3 hours.

Is the treatment painful?

During the procedure, local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia typically ensures you experience no pain. After treatment, you may experience pressure sensations, muscle soreness-like pain, swelling, and bruising, which usually subside within a few days to weeks.

How long is the recovery?

Many patients can resume light office work or everyday activities after about one week. Sport and strenuous activities are usually possible again after 4 to 6 weeks; the final result becomes apparent after about 3 to 6 months.

Do I need to wear a compression garment?

Yes, a compression garment is typically applied immediately after the procedure. It reduces swelling, supports skin tightening, and helps shape an even contour; the wearing duration is usually 4 to 6 weeks depending on the clinic.

Common and usually temporary effects include swelling, bruising, numbness, and minor contour irregularities. Rare risks include infections, bleeding, seromas, wound healing disorders, scars, and asymmetries; the risk increases with the extent of the procedure.

Will visible scars remain?

The access points for the cannula are very small and are usually placed in natural skin folds. After healing, they are typically barely visible, although scar formation can vary individually.

What is tumescent technique?

The tumescent technique is the most common basic technique in liposuction today. Before suctioning, a special fluid is injected into the subcutaneous fat tissue, causing it to swell and become firm – hence the name "tumescent" (swollen, taut). The tumescent solution typically consists of saline solution, a local anesthetic (usually lidocaine), and epinephrine. It numbs the treatment area, constricts blood vessels, and loosens the fat tissue so it can be suctioned more gently with a fine cannula. Benefits Less blood loss, as epinephrine constricts blood vessels Less pain, bruising, and swelling after the procedure Often possible without general anesthesia, frequently under local anesthesia or light sedation More precise fat removal and more even contouring because the fat tissue is firm and clearly defined Usually performed on an outpatient basis and typically faster recovery
