Liposuction for Patients from Toronto

Yes, this is normal practice. A single area alone is rarely treated: patients more commonly combine problem zones, e.g. the abdomen and flanks, or the inner and outer thighs. At the consultation, our surgeons will help you settle on the optimal scope of surgery for your health and desired result.

No. Liposuction is not about weight loss. It removes stubborn local fat deposits that diet and exercise can't shift and reshapes body contours. If your weight is unstable, consult a nutritionist or endocrinologist first.

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.

The surgeon always assesses tone, elasticity and turgor of the skin before surgery. In good condition, the skin tightens on its own and follows the new contours. If there are stretch marks or reduced tone, our specialists recommend preparatory treatments to 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 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.

Patients 18+ with no contraindications are eligible. There's no upper age limit, and the decision is made individually after examination and a 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.

Most people resume their routine and work in 7–10 days. Bruising and swelling go by weeks 4–5. The final result forms in 3–6 months, when the tissues have adapted fully.

You won't need a strict diet, but nutrition is important for keeping your result. The removed fat cells do not come back; the remaining ones, though, can grow if weight increases. We recommend balanced eating and regular physical activity for a lasting result.

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.
