Liposuction is a surgical technique that removes localised subcutaneous fat in order to improve body contour.
No. It is not a treatment for obesity and does not replace diet or exercise.
Laser Lipolysis is an assisted lipolysis technique that uses Laser energy within the subcutaneous fatty tissue and may form part of a personalised body-contouring plan.
SmartLipo is associated with Laser-assisted lipolysis technologies. Suitability depends on the treatment area, the amount of fat and the individual needs of the patient.
ThermiTight™ uses controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin and places particular emphasis on tissue tightening. With appropriate settings, it may also be used for selected localised fat deposits.
There is no single method that is best for everyone. The choice between liposuction, Laser Lipolysis, ThermiTight™ or a combination depends on fat distribution, skin laxity and the patient’s anatomy.
Traditional liposuction is usually performed as a single surgical procedure. With other techniques, the number of treatments depends on the area, technology and individual treatment plan.
An initial improvement may be visible relatively early, but the result continues to develop as swelling subsides. The final appearance may take several months.
The fat cells that are removed do not return, but weight gain can enlarge the remaining fat cells and alter the result.
A compression garment is commonly used after many liposuction procedures for a specific period of time. The duration is determined individually.
Return to exercise depends on the extent of treatment and takes place gradually after approval from the plastic surgeon.
Yes. In selected patients, a combined approach may be planned, particularly when localised fat and skin laxity are both present.
The cost varies according to the treatment areas, technique, extent of the procedure, anaesthesia and whether other technologies are combined. The exact price is determined after a personal consultation.
