Liposuction
What Is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that removes stubborn fat from specific areas of the body. It is not a weight-loss solution but a body contouring procedure.
Patients usually choose liposuction to improve the shape of their abdomen, thighs, arms, back, chin, or hips. This procedure is popular among international patients looking for safe and affordable body contouring options outside their home countries.
Benefits of Liposuction
- Removes localized fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise
- Improves body shape and proportions
- Boosts self-confidence
- Often performed with other surgeries (e.g. tummy tuck, BBL)
- Permanent fat removal (if weight is maintained)
- Quick procedure with short downtime
- Available at lower costs in medical tourism destinations like Turkey
How Liposuction Is Done
Liposuction is performed under local or general anesthesia. A thin tube (called a cannula) is inserted through small cuts in the skin to break up and suction out fat.
Key Facts:
- Surgery time: 1 to 3 hours (depending on number of areas)
