What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure used for body contouring. In this procedure, the surgeon inserts an instrument called a thin cannula under the skin and sucks out the fat tissue. The suctioned fat is removed with the help of a vacuum system. Liposuction is often used to reduce fat deposits in certain areas and to correct body contours.

The liposuction procedure may include these steps:

Patient Assessment: The doctor determines whether the patient is a suitable candidate by reviewing the patient's medical history and evaluating the desired outcomes.

Anesthesia Application: General anesthesia or local anesthesia is applied to the patient to avoid pain and discomfort during the procedure.

Preparation of the Surgical Area: The surgical site is cleaned and sterilized.

Incision or Cannula Placement: The surgeon will make small incisions or drill holes through which cannulas will be inserted, which are necessary for fat suction.

Fat Suction Procedure: The surgeon enters the fatty tissue under the skin through a special cannula and sucks out the fat cells. This procedure can be repeated to bring the body shape to the desired level.

Cannula Removal and Stitching: After the fat suction is complete, the cannulas are removed and the incisions are closed with small sutures.

Recovery and Aftercare: Dressings are applied to the surgical site and special compression garments may be used. The doctor's recommendations are followed throughout the healing process.

Control Visit and Result Evaluation: After a few weeks, the doctor schedules an appointment to check on the patient and the results of the procedure are evaluated.
