Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty or liposculpture, is a procedure that enables surgeons to target and remove stubborn fat from areas like the hips, thighs, buttocks, or abdomen. This process effectively eliminates bulges and unwanted contours, helping patients regain confidence and comfort in their bodies.
In addition to its cosmetic benefits, liposuction or abdominoplasty can lead to a reduction in overall body fat percentage, offering significant health advantages such as a decreased risk of heart disease and type II diabetes.

Recovery Period: What to Expect
After surgery, you may experience some soreness, bruising, and swelling for the first few days. Follow these tips to help you recover smoothly:
- Rest: Get plenty of rest to help your body heal.
- Walking: Light walking can help prevent blood clots.
- Medication: Take your prescribed pain medicine and antibiotics as directed.
- Avoid Water: Stay out of bathtubs and Jacuzzis for a while.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your body heal.
You'll also need to wear a special compression garment for several weeks to help your body shape correctly. Most patients can resume some daily activities within the first week and all other physical activities by the end of six weeks.
Liposuction Results: What to Expect
After surgery, you'll notice changes right away, but it takes time for your body to fully heal. As the swelling goes down, your final results will gradually appear. Within four to five months, you'll see the full impact of the procedure.
During liposuction, fat cells are completely removed, so the results can be long-lasting. Your plastic surgeon will help you set realistic expectations based on your health and lifestyle.
How to Maintain Your Figure
To keep your new shape, stick to a healthy lifestyle:
- Eat Healthy: Choose nutritious foods and keep an eye on your calorie intake.
- Exercise: Regular physical activity helps keep your weight steady.
- Stay Consistent: Avoid big changes in your weight, which can affect your results.
By following these steps, you can enjoy your new body for a long time. Let your doctor know if you have any questions or concerns.
Based on your goals, our team can help you determine whether liposuction is the best solution for your needs. Our foreign patients will be asked to send specific photographs to determine which procedure best responds to their needs.
