What you need to know about the procedure

At Gentle Clinic, our liposuction procedure is a sophisticated body contouring treatment designed to remove stubborn fat deposits and enhance your body's natural contours. Your liposuction journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where our specialist evaluates your body composition, skin elasticity, and fat distribution patterns while discussing your aesthetic goals to develop a personalized treatment plan. During this in-depth consultation, we'll identify the appropriate treatment areas and determine the most suitable liposuction technique for your specific needs. Depending on your goals and anatomy, we may recommend traditional suction-assisted liposuction (SAL), power-assisted liposuction (PAL), ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL/VASER), or laser-assisted liposuction (SmartLipo). We'll explain the benefits of each approach and how they might specifically address your concerns. Before surgery, you'll undergo a thorough medical evaluation to ensure you're an ideal candidate for the procedure. We'll provide detailed pre-operative instructions, including guidelines on medications to avoid, dietary recommendations, and lifestyle adjustments like smoking cessation. It's important to understand that liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure but rather a body contouring method designed to address specific areas resistant to diet and exercise. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the extent of fat removal and number of treatment areas. The surgery typically takes 1-4 hours, varying based on the size and number of areas being treated. The liposuction procedure begins with the surgeon making small, strategically placed incisions (typically 3-5mm) in natural body folds or less visible areas. Through these incisions, a diluted solution containing local anesthetic and epinephrine is infiltrated into the treatment area to reduce bleeding and facilitate fat removal. This tumescent technique significantly enhances safety and improves results. Next, a thin hollow tube called a cannula is inserted through the incisions and moved in a controlled back-and-forth motion to dislodge fat cells, which are then suctioned out through the cannula. Our surgeons use precise techniques to ensure smooth, even fat removal and natural-looking contours. The approach varies slightly depending on the specific liposuction technology being used: With power-assisted liposuction, the cannula rapidly vibrates to break up fat cells with less force, allowing more precise sculpting and reduced trauma. VASER liposuction uses ultrasound energy to selectively break down fat cells while preserving surrounding tissues, making it particularly effective for fibrous areas and achieving high-definition results. Laser-assisted methods employ laser energy to liquefy fat and stimulate skin tightening, which can be beneficial for areas with mild to moderate skin laxity. Following fat removal, the incisions are closed with fine sutures, and compression garments are applied to minimize swelling and help the skin adapt to your new contours. After surgery, you'll spend time in our recovery area before being discharged to your hotel with comprehensive aftercare instructions. Most patients experience moderate swelling, bruising, and discomfort, managed with prescribed pain medication. The compression garments must be worn continuously for 4-6 weeks, except when bathing. The initial recovery period lasts approximately 1-2 weeks, during which time you should rest, stay hydrated, and avoid strenuous activities. Most patients can return to light work duties within 3-7 days, depending on the extent of treatment and the physical demands of their job. Strenuous exercise and activities should be avoided for 3-4 weeks. While you'll notice an immediate change in your body contour, significant swelling initially masks your final results. Most visible swelling subsides within 4-6 weeks, but subtle swelling may persist for 3-6 months. Your final results become apparent once all swelling resolves, with continued refinement as the tissues adapt to your new contours. Throughout your recovery, our team provides attentive follow-up care with regular appointments to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns. To maintain your results long-term, we recommend a stable weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet, as significant weight fluctuations can affect your outcomes. At Gentle Clinic, we combine artistic vision with technical precision to create harmonious body proportions that enhance your natural physique and boost your confidence.
