Liposuction of the hips and legs

At the reception in the ANACOSMA clinic, the surgeon listens to the wishes and expectations of the client, assesses the condition of the buttocks, hips, and measures the thickness of fat deposits (liposuction is performed with a pinch thickness of 2 cm or more). After he talks about the technique of vibrational liposuction and the expected results of the procedure. It is important to know that with the help of liposuction of the hips, the shape of the buttocks and the hyoid area are not corrected. Otherwise, the buttocks will go down.

Corrections of body fat is performed after examination. The patient passes the tests prescribed by the surgeon, makes an ECG, consults the therapist ANACOSMA. If no contraindications are found, then the day of surgery is chosen together with the surgeon. 2 weeks before liposuction of the hips and legs, doctors advise smoking patients to give up cigarettes. Nicotine negatively affects the state of blood vessels, increases their fragility, increases the risks of postoperative complications and complicates rehabilitation.

On the day of surgery, the surgeon makes a mark-up tip, marking the areas of “ears” on the waist, buttocks, lower leg, ankles, where you need to remove fat. After the patient is given general anesthesia or local anesthesia (depending on the wishes and test results). Through small punctures (3-5 mm), the vibrating nozzle of the liposuction apparatus is introduced. The nozzle reproduces up to 6000 vibrations per minute. These waves act only on adipose tissue, breaking it, making deposits more malleable. Vacuum suction removes grease. After the surgeon puts surgical glue on the punctures (with such innovative “sutures”, you can take a shower the very next day after the manipulation). The duration of buttock liposuction is 1-1.5 hours.

After liposuction, the patient is transferred to a hospital for a day under the supervision of doctors. If there are no complications, then further recovery takes place at home. After thigh liposuction, the client wears compression underwear (knee-highs, tights, stockings) for a month so that the distribution of the remaining adipose tissue and skin tightening in the operation area are successful. Any physical activity, visiting a solarium, swimming pool, sauna, bath is prohibited.

In the removal zones, the fat traps will not return, since they are permanently removed. However, to preserve the result of plastic surgery, the patient still needs to monitor his diet – overeating and a sedentary lifestyle can lead to the patient recovering in other areas.
