Liposculpture is a liposuction procedure which aims to sculpt the body into a new shape. The procedure is suitable for those who are generally a healthy weight but have some stubborn pockets of fat that cannot be removed through diet and exercise. Liposculpture can also create the appearance of a six pack or create a curvier figure.

Liposculpture is a procedure to remove fat cells and contour the body. Using a laser or liposuction technique, your doctor will work to create the shape you desire. Liposculpture can be used on the abdomen, hips, thighs, face and neck. This procedure is especially useful for use on the fatty tissue deposits that tend to form as we age. Even if you are a healthy weight and regularly exercise, it may not have been possible for you to get rid of fat in some areas. Some doctors may classify Liposculpture differently to others, so it is important to have a consultation to discuss your expectations and learn about the specific technique that the doctor uses. Liposculpture has long-lasting results as the removed fat rarely comes back as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle.
There are two main types of liposculpture, plus a variety of other options that can be discussed with your doctor.
Other techniques available include using power-assisted devices with an electric motor, involving compressed air or a spinning cannula. A water jet-assisted technique uses a pressurised stream of saline to dislodge and remove the fat cells. In this method the fat cells are more gently removed and not destroyed during the process. Many modern techniques use tiny incisions in the natural folds of the body to minimise scarring. Often the scars from this procedure are unnoticeable.
If local anaesthesia is used during your surgery, you will be awake as it is performed. This is the safest method, however, if you feel uncomfortable with the thought of being awake, discuss this with your doctor during your consultation. Injecting the local anaesthesia under the skin may take some time and, therefore, this method may take longer overall compared to having the procedure done under general anaesthetic. There should not be much blood loss from the procedure, but there will be some bruising and swelling afterwards. The area will be bandaged and compressed to help reduce the swelling.
When micro-incisions are used, you will not require any stitches, and the fluid that was injected during the surgery can drain out through the incisions. Absorptive sponges and compression pads will be applied to contain the drained fluid. If stitches are required for larger incisions, drainage will take longer and there may be more bruising and swelling than normal. Recovery times vary depending on the patient and the area that the procedure was done on. You will be required to wear compression garments after surgery on your abdomen or legs. When you start to feel better you will be able to resume normal daily activities. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for up to a month following surgery.
There is usually only one treatment required, and the fat that was removed should not come back as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle and weight. You may be able to see some results within just a week, however it can take between three and six months for the body to fully recover. After this time, you will be able to see your final results.

Lipofilling: Exzellentes Ergebnis
Meine Schwester und ich haben uns ein Lipofilling im Gesicht vornehmen lassen. Wir sind BEIDE vom Ergebins sehr sehr zufrieden. Dr. Lonic würde ich jeder/jedem empfehlen! Schon beim ersten Gespräch hat er mir einen sehr guten Eindruck gemacht und bei meiner Schwester genauso. Er ist sehr kompetent, sehr freundlich und nimmt sich Zeit, um alle mögliche Fragen zu beantworten.
