Procedure

How the treatment works

Liposuction is performed under general anesthesia or sedation, depending on the number of areas treated. Through incisions only a few millimeters long, fat is first loosened with tumescent fluid and ultrasound or laser energy, then removed with fine cannulas in controlled, even movements.

1

Consultation & Marking

Your surgeon assesses skin quality, fat distribution and your goals, then marks the treatment areas while you stand. Honest expectations are set here: liposuction is body sculpting, not weight loss.

2

Anesthesia & Tumescent Infiltration

Once you are comfortably anesthetized, the treatment areas are infiltrated with tumescent solution — a saline mixture that numbs the tissue, minimizes bleeding and makes fat easier to remove safely.

3

Energy-Assisted Fat Loosening

With Vaser (ultrasound) or laser assistance, fat cells are gently loosened from the surrounding tissue. This step protects nerves and blood vessels, reduces bruising and stimulates the skin to tighten as it heals.

4

Fat Removal & Contouring

Using thin cannulas through the tiny incisions, your surgeon removes the loosened fat in smooth, symmetrical passes, continuously comparing both sides to sculpt an even, natural contour rather than simply extracting volume.

5

Compression & Recovery

The small incisions are closed or left to drain briefly to reduce swelling, and a fitted compression garment is applied. Most patients stay one night in the hospital for monitoring and comfort.

Candidacy

Who is suitable?

The ideal liposuction candidate is close to a stable, healthy weight but struggles with specific stubborn areas. You may be a good candidate if:

You have localized fat pockets that do not respond to diet or exercise Your weight is stable and within a healthy range for your height Your skin has reasonable elasticity so it can retract after fat removal You are in good general health with no uncontrolled medical conditions You have realistic expectations — contouring, not major weight loss You are a non-smoker, or prepared to pause smoking around surgery
Recovery

Your recovery timeline

1
Day 1
You rest overnight in the hospital. Expect tightness, mild soreness and some fluid leakage from the tiny incisions — all completely normal. Walking begins the same evening.
2
Week 1
Bruising and swelling peak and then begin to subside. You wear your compression garment continuously and attend a follow-up with your surgeon before flying home, usually around day four or five.
3
Weeks 2–4
Most patients return to work within a few days to two weeks depending on the areas treated. Swelling continues to decrease and early contour changes become visible.
4
Week 6
You resume full exercise, including strength training. The compression garment is usually phased out around this time as tissues stabilize.
5
Months 3–6
The skin fully retracts and residual swelling resolves, revealing your final contour. Treated fat cells are gone permanently; maintaining a stable weight preserves the result long term.
FAQ

Liposuction — your questions answered

International safety guidelines generally limit removal to around five liters in a single session. Your surgeon plans the volume according to your body weight, health status and the areas treated. Removing the right amount evenly matters far more for the final result than removing the maximum amount possible.

The fat cells removed during liposuction are gone permanently. However, the remaining fat cells can still enlarge if you gain significant weight, which may affect your new contour. Patients who maintain a stable weight enjoy lasting results.

The abdomen, waist, flanks, back, inner and outer thighs, arms, knees and the area under the chin are all commonly treated. Several areas can usually be combined in one session as long as total fat volume and operating time remain within safe limits — your surgeon confirms this during planning.

Vaser uses ultrasound energy to loosen fat cells before removal, which is gentler on surrounding tissue, causes less bruising and helps the skin tighten more evenly. It is particularly useful for fibrous areas and for high-definition contouring. Your surgeon recommends the technique best suited to your tissue and goals.

If your skin has good elasticity, it retracts smoothly over the new contour, and energy-assisted techniques encourage this. If significant skin laxity already exists, liposuction alone may not be enough, and your surgeon may recommend combining it with a tummy tuck, arm lift or thigh lift for the best result. This is assessed honestly at consultation.

A stay of four to five nights is usually sufficient: one night in the hospital, follow-up and garment checks, and clearance to fly. Our all-inclusive packages cover the operation, hospital fees, compression garment, hotel accommodation, VIP airport and clinic transfers, and a personal patient coordinator who speaks your language.

The operation itself is painless as it is performed under anesthesia. Afterwards, most patients describe soreness similar to an intense muscle workout rather than sharp pain, managed comfortably with simple pain relief for a few days. Tightness and numbness in treated areas fade over the following weeks.
