Liposuction in Brisbane: Areas and Price

Yes, it's routine. Only rarely is one area treated on its own — more often several problem zones are combined, e.g. abdomen and flanks, or inner and outer thighs. At the consultation our surgeons will help set the optimal scope of surgery based on your health and the result you are after.

No. Liposuction is not a weight-loss method. Its purpose is to remove local fat deposits that resist diet and exercise and to reshape body contours. If your weight is unstable, first see a nutritionist or endocrinologist.

It is done through tiny punctures of 3–7 mm, which usually need no stitches. Once they heal, the marks are barely noticeable, and proper care in recovery lets them 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. It is done under local or general anesthesia, depending on the scope. You may feel mild discomfort afterwards, which painkillers prescribed by the doctor relieve.

For 7 days after surgery avoid physical exertion and heavy lifting. Keep compression garments on for 4–6 weeks and avoid the bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sports. Alcohol and tanning beds are not allowed for at least a month. All individual advice is given by your surgeon after surgery.

We perform it for patients 18+ who have no contraindications. No upper age limit exists — the decision is individual, following an examination and health assessment.

Not directly. While liposuction removes fat tissue, it does not change the skin structure that causes cellulite. Improved body contours still visibly reduce its appearance.

The majority of patients go back to work and their normal routine within 7–10 days. Swelling and bruising disappear by weeks 4–5, and it takes 3–6 months for the final result to form as tissues fully adapt.

A strict diet is not required; still, nutrition matters if you want to keep the result. Removed fat cells never return, but remaining ones can expand when you gain weight. A balanced diet and regular physical activity are our recommendation for lasting results.

Yes. Stop smoking, alcohol and medications affecting blood clotting (aspirin, etc.) 7–10 days before liposuction. Pre-operative tests are also needed: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound and consultations with a GP and anesthesiologist. All instructions are given after your first consultation.

Changes start to show 2 weeks after surgery, once the main swelling has gone. At 1.5–2 months the interim result is assessed, and in 3–6 months the final contours form.
