Liposuction: Long-Term Effects and Benefits and Not Just for the Outward Appearance

Liposuction surgery is a real surgery that, through skin incisions of a few millimeters, allows you to reshape the body by removing adipose accumulations, which neither diet nor physical exercise can reduce.

Where can you intervene with liposuction?

Liposuction and body sculpting is performed in any part of the body - trunk, abdomen, hips, lower and upper limbs, sub-mental region.

What does the intervention consist of?

Through very small incisions on the skin that allow introducing a 3 - 4 mm cannula with which the adipose tissue, or the excess fat, it sucked.

Best practices combine traditional techniques with ultrasound techniques. Ultrasounds, which represent the most used form of energy in medicine, are selective and directly affect the fat cells. In this way, the vascular and nervous tissue of the patients is spared, making the intervention less traumatic, minimizing hematomas and post-operative pain, with a better aesthetic result.

What does liposuction surgery mean for patients in terms of recovery?

To operate in absolute safety, the volume of sucked fat must be restored with at least as many liquids, i.e. physiological solution injected gradually. For this reason, a one-night hospitalization of the patient is recommended and must be followed by the medical/nursing staff.

The day after the surgery the patient can get up and walk, and after 7 days the stitches are removed and, from now on, the more he moves, the more he eliminates the post-operative swelling and improves the result.

When is it recommended to undergo liposuction surgery?

There are no particular contraindications and at any time of the year, it can be performed except for having to wear a compression sheath for at least a week.

The scars are very small and hidden by the natural folds and the sun, in this case, is not a contraindication.

WHAT ARE THE RESULTS AFTER A LIPOSUCTION?

Having clarified these concepts, it is clear how an unrealistic expectation can play a fundamental role in the perception of results: you cannot lose weight with liposuction alone. To lose weight you have to resort to the good old methods: exercise, balanced nutrition, and a healthy lifestyle. Liposuction can certainly offer satisfactory results when working on specific areas of the body, such as the arms or thighs, and, when combined with a change in a healthy lifestyle, it can be an excellent solution. A factor not to be underestimated is the psychological one: a patient who undergoes this surgery will immediately see the first results in the most problematic areas, this will encourage her to maintain more careful care of the body and nutrition, consolidating the results. So, in conclusion,
