Overview of the treatment

More harmonious silhouette

Precisely shape the abdomen, flanks, back or thighs.

Gentle approach

Dissolve and suction fat, supported by VASER (Ultrasound).

Stricter grace

RENUVION (helium plasma) can support skin regeneration.

Planned relaxation

Short downtime, clear aftercare plan with compression garment.

Suitable if...

  • to maintain local fat deposits despite diet/exercise.

  • to bring a stable body weight and realistic expectations.

  • the skin quality is sufficient – with slight excess, Renuvion may be reasonable.

    Typical areas: abdomen/lower abdomen, flanks, back/"bra fold", inner/outer thighs, knees, upper arms, chin/neck.

Methods of liposuction

  • Classic Tumescent Liposuction
    Goal: Volume reduction & smoothing. Tumescent solution, precise cannula technique, harmonious transitions.


  • VASER-assisted Liposuction
    Ultrasound assistance for selective removal of fat (useful in firm/fibrous areas, re-ops, back, male chest). Goal: even contour with a gentler approach.


  • Renuvion (subdermal tightening support)
    Energy-assisted procedure for supporting skin tightening in selected cases; decision based on skin condition.


  • Combinations
    Often sensible: Classic + VASER; if needed, additionally Renuvion.

(Which variant is suitable will be clarified after assessment, skin quality, and target appearance.)

Process – 4 Steps

Consultation

We discuss goals, areas, and concerns, assess skin quality/tissue, define realistic expectations, and establish the suitable method (classic / VASER / Renuvion / combination) – transparently and calmly.

Preparation

Photo documentation, markings while standing, surgical briefing, organization of compression garments and follow-up appointments; instructions on medication/nicotine.

Treatment/Surgery

Gentle suction at planned levels, even contouring with soft transitions; VASER if necessary for selective dissolution, Renuvion for subdermal tightening support. Sterile procedure, drains if necessary.

Initial Aftercare

Cooling/rest, garments for 4–6 weeks, lymphatic drainage by our physiotherapist, gradual activation; regular check-ups.

Healing process

After one week, swelling and bruising usually subside; you wear the corset consistently and take care of yourself.

After one month, everyday life usually feels normal again; light exercise is possible after approval.

After three months, contours appear significantly calmer, uneven swelling recedes.

After six months, the stable result is evident.

Risks & Safety

As with any procedure, swelling, bruising, a feeling of tension, and temporary changes in sensitivity may occur. Specifically, irregularities/dents, asymmetries, seromas, or pigmentation changes are possible; energy-based procedures (e.g., VASER/Renuvion) require experience – we work with parameterized settings, tissue-conserving technique, and ISO-certified hygiene processes. General surgical/anesthesia risks (infection, bleeding, thrombosis/embolism) are present. Avoiding smoking, compliance with girdles, and weight stability support a calm outcome. In case of irregularities, we are available around the clock.

Combinations & Alternatives (optional)

  • High-Definition Liposculpting (Sixpack Surgery) for those desiring visible muscle definition

  • Abdominoplasty for pronounced excess skin/diastasis

  • Autologous Fat Transfer (Lipofilling) for contour refinement (e.g. buttocks/upper pole)

  • Submental Liposuction + tightening for double chin/neck
