Tumescent and VASER Liposuction in Birmingham

Yes, this is standard practice. A single area on its own is rarely treated — patients more often combine several problem zones, such as the abdomen and flanks, or inner and outer thighs. At the consultation our surgeons help define the best scope of surgery for your health and the result you want.

No, liposuction is not a way to lose weight. It removes local fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise and reshapes body contours. With an unstable weight, you should first see a nutritionist or endocrinologist.

Punctures of only 3–7 mm are used, and they usually don't need stitches. After healing the marks are hardly visible; with good aftercare during recovery they fade completely.

Skin tone, elasticity and turgor are always checked by the surgeon before surgery. Good skin tightens on its own and adapts to the new contours. If the tone is reduced or stretch marks are present, our specialists will recommend preparatory treatments that improve the skin in advance.

No — you have anesthesia during the procedure (local or general, depending on the scope). Mild post-op discomfort is possible and is managed with painkillers prescribed by the doctor.

For the first 7 days — no physical exertion or heavy lifting. For 4–6 weeks wear compression garments and avoid bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport. Alcohol and tanning beds are off-limits for at least a month. Your surgeon gives all individual recommendations after surgery.

No strict diet is needed, yet nutrition plays a role in keeping the result. Removed fat cells don't return, but the ones left can grow if you gain weight. To make the result last, we recommend a balanced diet and regular physical activity.

Yes. Preparation includes stopping smoking, alcohol and medications that affect blood clotting (aspirin, etc.) 7–10 days before liposuction, and pre-operative tests: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound and consultations with a GP and anesthesiologist. You'll receive all instructions after the first consultation.

You'll see the first changes 2 weeks after surgery as the main swelling subsides. The interim result is judged at 1.5–2 months; the final contours take 3–6 months to form.
