Liposuction at Obesity & Aesthetic Surgery in Tunisia
Liposuction, also called liposuction or liposculpture, is a technique of cosmetic surgery of the silhouette that allows the elimination of fatty deposits without leaving visible scars.
Based on the suction of skin fat, this operation can be performed on different parts of the body: the chin, neck, arm, stomach, hips (saddlebags), waist, buttocks, thighs, calves, ankles, etc.
If your slimming diets and the physical activity you practice are still not yielding positive results, our surgeons at Obesity & Aesthetic Surgery are ready to assist you in an effective liposuction operation.
For who ?
Liposuction is convenient for people who want to reshape the contours of the body by removing fat and disharmonious steatomas. Only allowing you to lose a few pounds, this operation is in no way intended to lose weight.
Anyone who is not overweight or suffers from localized obesity can then benefit from the benefits of liposuction. The only people who unfortunately cannot enjoy it are people who are obese or who have a large excess of skin usually following obesity surgery.
If you are not yet sure if you are a good candidate for liposuction, do not hesitate to consult one of our qualified surgeons for guidance.
Liposuction intervention
Liposuction is performed in the operating room under general anesthesia. The principle is to suck the fat under the skin under high pressure through cannulas. First, an adrenaline serum will be injected next to the areas to be aspirated subcutaneously.
Thin cannulas are then introduced through small 3-millimeter openings into the folds of the skin. Thus, there will be no visible scar after liposuction.
The amount of fat sucked is variable but must not exceed 5% of the body weight which corresponds to an amount of 1 to 5 liters of fat. This sucked fat can be used for reinjection to bring volume to another area of the human body: the principle of lipofilling.
Support throughout the process is provided by a team of experienced surgeons to guarantee the best results.
Post-operative suites
The duration of the liposuction stay is generally 7 days. This duration can obviously vary depending on the advice of your surgeon, who can also recommend:
- Wearing a compression panty for a month.
- Taking painkillers to soothe the aches that will appear during the first 5 days.
- Anti thrombotic prevention which is systematic.
It should also be noted that the first survey is authorized the same evening of the intervention, while the result is visible immediately and will be evaluated at 3 months. Edema and bruising will disappear in 3 weeks.
The team of our experienced surgeons at Obesity & Aesthetic Surgery will be by your side to accompany you throughout your stay and take the necessary precautions to make your operation a success.
