Liposuction at TravelMEDI
Patients who do not have obesity problems but have regional body fat, can have liposuction to have these fats removed and get into a better shape. Liposuction has become one of the most popular treatments in the last few years.
Liposuction should not be mistaken for a weight loss treatment. It is an aesthetical procedure that gives a better shape to the body by removing excess fat.
In which body parts can liposuction be applied?
The body parts liposuction applied can be listed as follows. Even though there is a wide selection of body parts, it is always recommended to have a strict sports regimen in order to have a more successful results with liposuction.
- Hips
- Abdomen ( belly )
- Inner and outer thigh
- Inner knee
- Neck
- Upper arm
- Breast (Female and male)
In liposuction, body fat is liquefied by special equipments in order to be removed by very small millimetric incisions.
There are some differences between the methods applied in liposuction. The first of these methods is the classical method called “Wet Technique” or “Tumescent Liposuction”. Recently developed techniques that provide a better results are “Ultrasonic (Vaser) Liposuction” and “Laser Liposuction (Laser Lipolysis)“.
The difference of laser liposuction from original wet liposuction is that the fat is taken after being broken apart by laser. In vaser liposuction, these fat areas are broken apart and then removed from the body using ultrasonic sound waves. With the sound waves used in the vaser liposuction technique, only the fats are targeted, so the possibility of damaging other crucial tissues, pain, bruising and swelling that can be seen after the operation is kept at minimum.
Due to these advantages, the most preferred method is vaser liposuction, namely Ultrasonic Liposuction.

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that “sucks” out fat from areas that are hard to lose through a healthy diet and exercise, while liposculpture is the shaping of the skin back to its desired shape. Both are done in conjunction with one another at the same time. Most areas can be treated. Traditionally the most popular areas to treat are the stomach/abdomen, chin and neck, love handles, arms, and inner and outer thighs. Becoming more popular are the knees, calves and ankles, all with very successful results.
While liposuction can permanently remove fat cells and alter your body shape, it should not be viewed as a quick fix for individuals who are significantly overweight. The procedure works best for those who have already lost some weight themselves and are close to their ideal weight but need help tackling stubborn areas of fat in problem areas.
What's the Recovery Time for Liposuction Procedures?
Numbness in the specific area of your body where the fat was removed is to be expected for the first couple of weeks, usually, this will improve after 6 to 8 weeks. You may also need to wait a few days before going back to work. As for your normal activities, especially exercise, you may have to wait a few weeks before resuming.
Overall, the recovery time may vary from patient to patient. In most cases, patients can return to light activities within 2 to 3 days and are also able to go back to work after two weeks. As for the results, you may see visible results after 3 to 4 weeks, however, it can take several months before you see the final outcome.
What's the Success Rate of Liposuction Procedures in Istanbul?
Liposuction remains one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries with a success rate of 85%, offering patients the enhanced body shape they've been craving. However, just like any other surgeries, it also comes with possible risks. Complications vary and are dependent on the procedure is as well as your surgeon’s skills. Possible risks and complications include:
- Severe bruising
- Inflammation
- Blood clot forms in veins, causing inflammation and complications (Thrombophlebitis)
- Kidney or Heart problems - changes in the body's fluid levels during the procedure may cause kidney or heart problems.
- Pulmonary embolism - when fat gets into your blood vessels and travels to your lungs, eventually, blocking your lungs.
