One of the most popular aesthetic applications of recent years, Body Shaping with Liposuction, can be easily applied for every individual over the age of 16. This application, also known as the contour correction method, is definitely not a weight loss option. With Body Shaping, weight is not lost, only certain areas of the body are corrected. After liposuction, your body will look more alive. However, if you have an excessively oily body, there may be some sagging on your body after application.

Shaping of the body by removing and absorbing fat tissues that cause regional disfigurement in people who cannot achieve results with exercise and diet. It can be applied on any part of the body where there is subcutaneous fat. The abdomen, waist, back, hips, legs, inside of the knee, lower leg, ankles, arms, under the chin, such as the parts where this application can be done are the areas where this application can be done. 

Which technique is used in body shaping?

In addition to the classical Body Shaping with Liposuction technique, laser and vaser techniques are also used. Your doctor and you can decide together which technique is right for you. In some extremely oily bodies, some techniques may be insufficient. With the development of technology, many new generation of liposuction techniques began to be used.  In the past years, thicker diameter cannulas were using very often. In recent years, the so-called wet technique has been applied.  Thus, pipes of a smaller diameter are used. Serums containing local anesthetics and bleeding-reducing drugs are injected into the areas where the oil will be absorbed, and oil is removed more easily from these areas. Small-diameter cannulas also reduce the risks.

Classical Liposuction

Fats that accumulate regionally in classical liposuction are excreted from the body with the help of cannulas. In this technique, liquid is injected into the oily area, and the adipose tissue is shredded using sharp and large cannulas. After this procedure, it is vacuumed with negative pressure. Performed, as a rule, in the hospital and under anesthesia. It is a somewhat outdated technique and is not much preferred nowadays.

Today, more practical, effective and innovative techniques are used for Body Shaping with Liposuction. Of course, the results of the old techniques are also successful. In the classical liposuction method, 3-5 mm incisions are made at the appropriate points of the area where the application will be performed and a special solution is injected into the adipose tissue. The oils that are broken down with the help of the solution are turned into liquid. In this way, liposuction can be performed comfortably without bleeding.

Vaser Liposuction 

In the Vaser method performed with the Vaser device, unlike the classical liposuction method, excess fat in the body is liquefied with the help of ultrasonic sound waves. The liquefied fat is expelled with the help of thin cannulas. In Vaser liposuction application, as in classical liposuction application, there are no grater-style blades at the end of the cannulas.

Thanks to this, there is no risk of damage to nerves and vessels in the application of vaser. In addition, there is much less bruising, edema and swelling after the operation than with conventional liposuction. In order for skin heating to occur, an ultrasonic probe is circulated under the skin using the V mode of the Vaser device. Thus, it can be ensured that the skin is firmer and the likelihood of sagging is reduced. Since this application will not cause any damage to the vessels, conditions such as bruising and bleeding are extremely rare.

Depending on the fact that the nerves are not damaged, there is also pain in the short term, and in the advanced period, drowsiness is extremely rare or may not be observed at all. In this way, the wavy surface appearance that can be seen in the classical liposuction method does not occur in Vaser liposuction applications. As there are no incision marks on the skin during Vaser liposuction, there are no scars left after the operation.

Thin legs are not a dream! 

Yes, of course, this is not a dream. Because with Body Shaping with Liposuction, you can easily achieve this dream. Especially with this excellent method, which is the choice of women who want to have thin and uniform legs, you can have perfect legs in your dreams in a few sessions. If your legs have too much fat and are too thick, you may need an additional operation after the procedure. Because sagging skin may need to be stretched to prevent sagging. This will be decided by the doctor after liposuction.

Body shaping with liposuction

Certain areas of the body, such as the abdomen, waist, hips, inner and outer sides of the thighs, and the inside of the knee, are areas of fat accumulation that are resistant to diet and exercise. Excessive exercise to eliminate excess fat in these areas will not give results, but can also disrupt the general metabolism of the body. Here are the operations in which these conscious fat deposits are removed from the body by entering a vacuum with a negative pressure, called Body shaping with liposuction. These operations are definitely not slimming operations, but contour correction operations.

How much fat can you remove with liposuction?

It is possible to remove a high amount of fat with liposuction. Between 8-10 kilos of fat can be removed from the body in a single session. However, it is considered safe to take 2.5-4 liters of fat in a single session because taking such high amounts of fat can cause disruption of the balance in the body. No matter how much fat is in your body, Body shaping with liposuction is the ideal solution for you. But this procedure must necessarily be performed by an experienced cosmetologist.
