Liposuction

Post surgical retrieval

After you leave the clinic the stitches are removed, 5-6 days after the surgery; this can also be done by your family doctor. You must wear elastic trousers or belts that help at the retraction and the uniform streching of the extra skin. At the same time, a very important element that prevents the appearance of bumps in the sucked areas is the post surgical massage. You will start it even from your stay in the clinic. Swellings and bruises usually disappear after 3 weeks, they seldom last 1-2 months. The final result usually can be seen after 3 months.
Normal activity can be resumed in maximum one week.
In order for the result to last longer it is important for one to follow a higenico-dietetical diet recommended by a nutrition doctor and one should not hesitate to practice sport.

Conclusion

The number of fat cells from our body is fixed, so after liposuction their number decreases. The fat removal is permanent but if the volume of the fat cells is increased through a fattening process, the volume of the treated area will increase, but it will never be the one before the surgery.
Take into consideration that liposuction is not a weight loss method but a body contouring one. For losing weight the best methods are diets and physical exercises.
With this surgery we have a solid medical practice: more then 2000 cases operated on, in a 6 year period.
