A Guide to Plastic Operations

Not all people like curvy women. The ideal beauty standard nowadays is different. That is why (not only) women try to get rid of stored fat from certain areas of the body. Even men sometimes suffer from accumulated fat in the hips. Liposuction has become a popular and affordable way to permanently get rid of the excess fat in problematic parts of the body. The modern and revolutionary radiofrequency liposuction method called BodyTite is also gentler and efficiently reduces cellulite.

  • RECOVERY: 4-6 weeks



You will go through the necessary medical examination before the procedure

Relax during your recovery so the wounds would heal well


The procedures can be combined

If you are amazed by radiofrequency liposuction, nothing is in your way to schedule a pre-surgery consultation. You will be taken care of directly by a plastic surgeon at the Aesthevita plastic surgery clinic. Show him/her the body parts that bother you the most. Based on this information, the doctor will recommend you if it is good for you to suck out the fat from only one body part or if it is better to combine two or three parts.

Liposuction is not omnipotent

Each organism tends to store fat in certain areas – this is influenced by genes, age and lifestyle. Women usually have their fat stored in the buttocks, the hips or the thighs. On the other hand, men get bigger bellies and double chins and sometimes even hips. As time goes by, our metabolism is getting slower due to age and the amount of stored fat increases. Especially true when no proper lifestyle is set and for less active people.

Do not count on liposuction to help you to lose weight. This procedure aims at modelling the body and does not substitute a reduction diet and healthy lifestyle. Therefore, that part of the job is up to you but the liposuction can become your ally.

Right before the surgery

The date of the surgery is getting closer and you are likely to be imagining yourself in the trousers that are several sizes smaller than the pair you are wearing right now. But before you step in to the operation room, you undergo pre-surgery examination with blood sampling and an ECG. The patients aged over 50 undergo an x-ray of the lungs as well, for smokers the age limit is set at 40+.


Almost no scars

Sucking the fat out during the process of liposuction BodyTite is performed by very thin cannulas which do not leave profound bruises. Radiofrequency energy effectively dissolves redundant fat and its subsequent sucking is less traumatic for the body. At the same time, this energy has a very positive effect on smoothing the skin with cellulite thanks to warming the skin and the subcutaneous tissue. Moreover, it minimizes the creation of post-surgery haematomas and bruises. Stitching the wounds with absorbable sutures and application of sterile bandage come at the end of the surgery.

General or local?

Liposuction is performed under both local and general anaesthesia. The second option is more comfortable for the patients because there is no pain at all. If you decide for local anaesthesia for some reason, take into account the fact that you will have to bear the pressure of the cannula through which the surgeon sucks the fat out.

How much fat does the surgeon suck out?

During the liposuction, the fat leaves the body together with blood. Therefore, the surgeon can suck out only a certain amount. Calculate 1 % of your weight and multiply it by four or five. The result is the maximum amount of fat which can be sucked out during one liposuction procedure. Nevertheless, it is still true that the surgeon can suck out no more than 5 litres of fat during one surgery regardless the weight of the patient.


Follow a leisurely regime for a couple of days

The tumescent liposuction in combination with radiofrequency energy is less demanding for the patient and the process of recovery is faster than for conventional liposuction. But resting is still necessary shortly after the procedure and some bruises and swelling may appear. After you spend a week resting, you can return to your normal activities. You will be able to do sports and other physically demanding activities approximately 4 weeks after the surgery.

Garment that heals

You will be accompanied all the time by a compression garment for six weeks after the surgery. Take it off only for a moment – for a shower for example. It prevents creating more bruises and facilitates healing. When the scabs disappear from your scars, you can start with a gentle pressure massage. It will ensure the scars remain elastic and it will significantly help their healing.

The curves will gradually become noticeable

The body gradually gets into shape after the surgery. Do not be surprised if you have the impression that your hips have not been reduced as you expected even after a few weeks. It will improve but it may not happen until the last bruise disappears.


Keeping an improved figure is not a sure thing

The merciless fact is that we are born with a certain number of fat cells. Therefore, we cannot change the prerequisites for a greater weight gain. The fat cells behave depending on our genetic predisposition and on the care we provide to our body. Liposuction can get rid of the fat cells but it is not omnipotent. Therefore, lock the old sins of your lifestyle away. It is the right time to improve your lifestyle after a successful recovery.

The fat will never again be stored in the treated areas after the liposuction. The fat cells are gone from there forever. But the body cannot be fooled by this. It will find other areas to store fat; therefore, a good lifestyle is necessary for the long-term effect of the liposuction. Look closely to your dietary habits and think about when was the last time you did sports or went for a longer walk.
