Tumescent and VASER Liposuction in Genoa

Yes, standard practice. Few patients treat just a single area; most combine several problem zones — abdomen and flanks, for example, or inner and outer thighs. Our surgeons help define the optimal scope of surgery at the consultation, taking into account your health and desired result.

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

The surgeon works through punctures only 3–7 mm across — usually no stitches needed. When they heal, the marks are barely visible, and proper care during recovery makes them fade completely.

Before surgery, skin tone, elasticity and turgor are always assessed by the surgeon. Healthy skin tightens by itself to follow the new contours. With reduced tone or stretch marks, our specialists recommend preparatory treatments to improve the skin beforehand.

No, you are under anesthesia during the procedure — local or general, depending on the scope. After surgery there may be mild discomfort, relieved by painkillers prescribed by the doctor.

During the first 7 days, skip physical exertion and heavy lifting. For 4–6 weeks wear compression garments and avoid bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport. Keep away from alcohol and tanning beds for at least a month. Your surgeon gives every individual recommendation 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: liposuction removes fat but doesn't alter the skin structure causing cellulite. The improved body contours do, however, 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 isn't necessary, though nutrition is important to maintain the result. The fat cells removed won't return, but those left can enlarge if you put on weight. A balanced diet and regular physical activity keep the result lasting.

Yes. 7–10 days before liposuction, give up smoking, alcohol and any medications affecting blood clotting (aspirin, etc.). Pre-operative tests are also needed — blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, GP and anesthesiologist consultations. We give you all instructions after your first consultation.

When the main swelling subsides, 2 weeks after surgery, the first changes become visible. The interim result is assessed at 1.5–2 months and the final contours form in 3–6 months.
