Liposuction

Remove excess fat and achieve a more proportionate and firmer figure. Liposuction is ideal for those who have excess subcutaneous fat in various parts of the body but are otherwise of normal weight. This can involve removing a double chin or reshaping the thighs and abdomen to change the overall impression.

The risk of complications is very low, and most people can achieve good and lasting results with just one procedure.

Since you cannot choose where you want to burn fat, a reduction in fat volume will occur across the entire body. Everyone has certain areas where the body tends to store fat the longest, often in the hip and thigh regions for women and the abdomen for men. The chin and neck are also favorable areas for liposuction.

Conditions

First Condition

The first condition is that it involves subcutaneous fat. Some people store fat in the abdominal area inside the abdominal wall. This type of fat must be burned off through weight loss.

The risk of complications is very low, and most people can achieve a good and lasting result with just one procedure. The body changes over time and is affected by pregnancy and weight fluctuations even after surgery, so it is important to be aware that additional procedures may be needed in the future.

Second Condition

The second condition for a good result is that the skin has good quality and can retract over the areas that have been liposuctioned. If too much fat is removed or if the skin quality is poor, the results will not be satisfactory.

To maintain good results, it is essential to keep your weight stable after the surgery and preferably lose weight rather than gain weight.

How does a Liposuction work?

A consultation with one of our plastic surgeons is scheduled for 30 minutes. During this time, we will review your health and discuss any specific considerations regarding anesthesia and surgery. The main goal is to provide you with a clear understanding of your options and what you can expect from the procedure. It’s beneficial to prepare by knowing the results you desire and bringing pictures for discussion.

Usually, one pre-operative visit is sufficient, but if you have any uncertainties, you can come back as many times as needed to feel confident about the surgery. We also maintain contact before and after the operation so you can ask questions directly to your plastic surgeon or get assistance from our dedicated staff.

You will meet your plastic surgeon or nurse for a follow-up 1-2 weeks after the procedure, depending on the surgery. After this, we maintain contact to provide advice on how to best take care of yourself. You will schedule an appointment approximately 6 months after the surgery to evaluate the results and see an early final outcome. It takes about a year for the scars to mature and for the body to fully adapt to the changes.

Detta för att vi ska kunna utvärdera resultatet och se ett tidigt slutresultat. Det tar cirka ett år innan det kan betraktas som mera färdigt när det gäller ärr och att kroppen har anpassat sig helt till förändringen.

Complications and poor results

Bleeding, infection, and wound healing problems are the most common surgical complications. The risk is minimal, but for those affected, it can be very stressful. We do everything possible to avoid and prevent complications, and it is important for the patient to take necessary precautions.

Smoking doubles the risk of all types of complications. To ensure optimal healing, it is necessary to avoid smoking completely for four weeks. Alcohol also increases the risk of healing problems, so it is important to be very moderate about two weeks before the operation.

Regarding complications and undesirable results, these are covered by the clinic’s guarantee and corrected at no extra cost. It is important to know that not everyone can achieve the same results, and the goal is the ”best possible result.” During the consultation, we will highlight anything specific to you that we need to consider.
