Is hospitalisation necessary?

When relatively small areas are treated (under the chin, knees, hips) the surgery can be performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or under epidural. In such cases the patient can go back home on the same day.

Will I have scars?

The scars are minimal and practically invisible. The cannulas that are used are very fine (3-4 mm) and therefore the resulting scars are extremely short.

What about aftercare?

For the first month following the operation a compression girdle must be worn, in order to enhance the effect of surgery and reduce swelling.

Creams may be prescribed by your surgeon to make bruising disappear more quickly and after 1 week some lymphatic drainage can be performed in order to improve recovery.

After 1 week you can return to a practically normal life but active sport activities cannot be started any sooner than 2-3 weeks after surgery. Exposure to the direct sun should be avoided for about 4 weeks.

Will the fat come back?

Liposuction removes the localised fat cells and the result is permanent as long as the patient maintains normal, healthy diet and exercise
