Liposuccion Tunisia, the CenterClinic
Liposuction (also called liposuction or liposculpture) is a cosmetic surgery procedure that treats excess fat called lipomasia, located in different areas of the body: saddlebags, hips, inner side of the knees, stomach, arms, abdominal area, buttock area, calves, breasts, area under the chin and even the face and neck, especially for the double chin.
In Tunisia, very few clinics are authorized like us to perform this type of operation, which requires a state-of-the-art technical platform and competent surgeons.
Liposuccion Procedure
Liposuction is a mostly outpatient surgery (entry in the morning and exit in the afternoon) that takes place under general anesthesia. The duration of the procedure depends on the number of areas to be treated, and varies between 1 hour and 1h30 on average.
Thanks to a cannula connected to a suction device, the deep fat is aspirated. The superficial fat is left in place, as it is the fat that ensures the skin's relief. An aspiration that is too superficial can lead to hollows, bumps and waves, which are far from being aesthetic.
The results after a successful liposuction operation are very satisfactory with, for example, the reduction of one or two pant sizes or the uniformity of the knees.
Liposuction in Tunisia: the postoperative period
The operation itself is not painful, but patients may feel some soreness in the treated areas.
The recovery time following liposuction is proportional to the amount of fat extracted and the number of areas treated.
The final result can be observed after three months of convalescence. As is the case with all surgeries, edema will set in at the beginning, but will gradually disappear with healing. It is good to know that wearing a compression garment (panty or abdominal girdle) for one to two months may be necessary for best results.
Liposuction may leave some scars, but they are minimal (about 5 millimeters) and placed in the most discreet places possible.
Important tips
The essential principle to remember is that the fat cell (the adipocyte) is in fixed number in an individual after puberty, when it is sucked out it disappears permanently. Liposuction thus makes it possible to stop weight gain in the treated areas. However, care must be taken not to gain weight elsewhere, because fat cells can multiply like any other cell and thus store lipids again. The result of liposuction will therefore only be convincing and stable over time if the patient's weight remains stable. In fact, if the patient does not maintain a healthy lifestyle after liposuction, there is a risk that fat accumulation will occur in the areas that have not been treated. It is advisable to eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, avoid stress, tobacco and alcohol...
