Aesthetic surgery of the body silhouette
Liposuction
The skin is an organ which, even after the age of 40, has an important retraction power. The natural process of healing produces skin tension. This concept is essential and allows, without any skin excision, to obtain remarkable results.
This French technique is almost twenty years old. It is the most performed surgery worldwide, compared to all procedures performed in other specialties. It suppresses the excessive fat which is usually irreducible, thus allowing the resolution of old problems that could not be resolved in the past.
In some cases, it can be combined with other procedures such as face lifts, abdominoplasty, etc. it improves the outcome of these surgeries and simplifies the operative technique.
At the beginning, liposuction was only performed on thighs : given the obtained results, its applications have increased and today liposuction can be used in all areas of the body : in particular, the abdominal wall, the hips, the buttocks, the thighs, the inner aspect of the knees and the neck.
For other areas such as ankles, legs and the inner arms, this technique is performed less, but the results may be interesting.
Liposuction is a true surgical procedure and has to be performed in a well-equipped operating room.
