A radical measure to create a dream figure is surgical intervention. During the liposuction procedure, fat on the abdomen or in another selected area (arms, hips, back and other parts of the body) is removed by surgeons under general anesthesia. There are 3 types of adipose tissue - the inner, deep and surface layer. Surgical intervention involves pumping fat through a special cannula from the subcutaneous layer.

Depending on the severity, the method of treatment is selected:

• dry, used for small areas and the face;
• tumescent - allows you to eliminate no more than 5 liters of fat, this low-traumatic method consists in the introduction of a saline solution into the operated tissue, its destruction by ultrasound and vacuum extraction;
• hypertumescent is the most effective technique, during which a special substance is injected that destroys all connections between fat cells, so you can remove up to 12 liters of fat.

Classical liposuction can be water jet, ultrasonic, laser, radio wave or tumescent.

First, the doctor makes a diagnosis, evaluates the results of tests and the general condition of the patient, and then determines the method of treatment. The age of a person, the turgor of the skin, the presence of concomitant diseases are also important. For persons under the age of majority, the procedure is contraindicated. Other contraindications are endocrine diseases, including diabetes mellitus, genetic predisposition to obesity, heart defects, the presence of malignant neoplasms and some other conditions.

The cost of abdominal liposuction depends on several factors - the complexity of the operation, anesthesia, the need for cosmetic manipulations.

Regardless of the chosen method, after the procedure, the body will need to recover. The appearance of swelling and bruising is likely. Fat cells do not recover, however, in order to achieve the desired result, it is necessary to carefully review all habits and lifestyle. It is extremely important to undergo full rehabilitation. It is possible to accurately assess the effectiveness of treatment only after 4-6 months.

From the first day and throughout the next week, swelling and bruising will appear next to the operating field - this is a normal reaction. Discomfort and pain may occur, especially if liposuction was performed on large areas - back, abdomen, thighs.

The rate of regeneration is individual, but on average on day 8-14, the above symptoms gradually disappear. There may still be swelling in the shin area.

2-3 weeks after surgery, the skin at the site of liposuction changes. Bumps of varying degrees of magnitude are formed, seals and other irregularities can be felt. This is an absolutely normal physiological process, which will be replaced by the return of the skin to its normal appearance. All the bumps will soften and the hematomas will resolve.

After 1-1.5 months, patients are already happy with their appearance, and the final results will be formed in another 3-5 months. The main thing is not to relax, work on yourself, fulfill all doctor`s appointments and believe in yourself!

The risk of complications after a properly performed manipulation is minimal, but in some cases local reactions develop - increased skin sensitivity, hyperpigmentation, very rarely cysts form.

Modern minimally invasive operations are low-traumatic, possible without general anesthesia, and have low risks of blood loss. The use of thin cannulas ensures rapid healing and the formation of almost imperceptible scars.

The recovery process will take less time and will be easier for patients with healthy, well-groomed skin that is sufficiently elastic. The presence of concomitant diseases complicates the course of the postoperative period. It should be noted that liposuction does not fight the cause of obesity, therefore, in the absence of active measures, the former kilograms and volumes may return. Also, this procedure does not solve the problem of cellulite and stretch marks.

Alcohol consumption, smoking negatively affect the postoperative period and, in principle, harm health, so it is desirable to abandon them forever.
