Liposuction for Patients from Hamilton

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 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.

Only 3–7 mm punctures are made, usually without stitches. After healing you can barely see the marks, and they fade completely with proper care during recovery.

Skin tone, elasticity and turgor are always evaluated by the surgeon before surgery. Skin in good shape tightens itself, following the new contours. Where tone is reduced or stretch marks exist, our specialists recommend preparatory treatments to get the skin ready in advance.

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.

For the first 7 days, no physical exertion or heavy lifting. For 4–6 weeks, wear compression garments and avoid the 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.

The surgery is for patients aged 18+ without contraindications. As for an upper limit, there is none: we decide individually after an examination and health check.

Not directly. It removes fat but leaves unchanged the skin structure causing cellulite. Nevertheless, improved body contours visibly lessen its appearance.

In 7–10 days most patients return to work and their normal routine. Swelling and bruising resolve by weeks 4–5, and the final result forms in 3–6 months as the tissues fully adapt.

No strict diet is required, but nutrition matters for keeping the result. Removed fat cells don't come back, but the remaining ones can grow if you gain weight. For a lasting result we recommend a balanced diet and regular exercise.

Yes. You need to stop smoking, alcohol and medications that affect blood clotting (aspirin, etc.) 7–10 days before liposuction, and pass pre-op tests: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, GP and anesthesiologist consultations. All instructions are provided after your 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.
