What can you expect from liposuction?
Liposuction is a popular cosmetic procedure for people with stubborn fat deposits. During this procedure, both fat and fat cells are removed, providing permanent results. In the first few weeks after liposuction, the effects may be somewhat hidden by swelling and bruising. Proper post-treatment, such as lymphatic drainage (specialized massages), helps to drain the fluid faster and allow the skin to recover more tightly. This also reduces the chances of folds, dents or sagging of the skin.
Who is liposuction for?
Liposuction is especially effective in people with localized fat deposits, such as on the abdomen, flanks or double chin. These fat areas are often resistant to diet and exercise. When the body otherwise has little excess fat, liposuction is an excellent method for improving body contours. Healthy adults with stable weight usually qualify for this treatment.
The benefits of liposuction

- Quick recovery and little pain
- Instant visible results
- Durable effect at stable body weight
Liposuction is a safe procedure when performed by an experienced cosmetic surgeon. The procedure has few risks and complications are rare. Always choose a clinic with proven expertise and attention to your health and comfort.
Weight loss
Liposuction is not a method for losing weight. In the first few weeks, little changes on the scale due to wound fluid. The goal of liposuction is to improve body shape, not reduce body weight. Also, cellulite (pits in the skin) is hardly reduced by liposuction.
A frequently asked question is whether fat returns after liposuction. Because fat cells do not return, the treated area is less susceptible to fat storage. If you maintain your weight after the procedure, the fat will not return. If you do gain weight, the fat is distributed throughout the body and not specifically in the treated area.
Loose skin
If the area to be treated already has loose skin, liposuction can exacerbate that sagging. In that case, it is wise to combine the procedure with a skin-tightening treatment. Our surgeons specialize in contour surgery after significant weight loss and bring decades of experience to help you make the right choices in this regard.
