Before Vaser liposuction, the doctor’s examination will decide from which part of the body how much fat will be removed and these areas are marked with a pencil so that it can be easily noticed during the operation.
During the pre-operative period, the patient and the doctor should be in communication with each other. It is essential for the patient to share his expectations with the doctor and the doctor to evaluate these expectations in terms of realism. Setting realistic goals is one of the most important points in achieving the best result. Apart from this, the doctor must have full knowledge of the patient’s medical history. Various blood tests may be ordered for this.
The points that the patient should consider before the operation are as follows:
- A balanced diet program should be adopted before the operation,
- Before the procedure, care should be taken not to gain weight; weight should be kept constant,
- Smoking and alcohol use should be stopped at least 3-4 weeks before the operation.
- Food and beverage consumption should be stopped approximately 8 hours before the application,
- If there are medications used, the doctor should be informed about this,
- Pain medications, herbal supplements, vitamins and drugs such as aspirin with blood thinning properties should not be taken into the body at least 1 week before the operation.
- Although Vaser liposuction is a procedure with a very low risk of complications, it is important to follow the doctor’s recommendations in order to pass the entire operation process comfortably.
During Vaser Liposuction
During Vaser liposuction, some liquid is injected into the adipose tissues and their swelling is ensured. Swollen fat tissues are broken into liquid by ultrasonographic sound waves. Finally, liquefied fat is carried out of the body with the help of thin cannulas by opening 3-5 mm holes. With this method, which provides the doctor with the opportunity to study in detail, the muscles, curves, sportive lines and waist cavity are formed clearly, and the fats are removed proportionally from the body, so no fluctuations appear in the applied area.
Vaser liposuction application performed under general or local anesthesia under operating room conditions takes approximately 1-4 hours depending on the amount of fat to be removed from the person and the area to be applied. In this technique, only adipose tissues are targeted and other tissues are protected. Thus, effective results are obtained even in the most sensitive areas.
After Vaser Liposuction
Since Vaser liposuction is an advanced minimally invasive operation, it offers a comfortable process to the patient after the operation and provides recovery in a short time; It also prevents sagging and makes it possible to tighten the application area.
After this effective operation, the patient must stay in the hospital for 1 night. The healing process is faster than the classical lipo application and since there is less bruising, bleeding and redness, daily life and light activities can be returned faster. Unless the doctor recommends otherwise, it is possible to return to the daily routine within 3 days after the operation.
After the operation, it will be sufficient for the patient to rest at home for a few days. It is extremely normal to have mild pain during this process and these symptoms can be easily eliminated with painkillers given by the doctor. Swelling and edema may occur for 1 week after surgery. With the removal of edema and swelling in the body, it may take about 3-6 weeks for the skin to reach its normal structure, depending on the person’s body structure. It takes an average of 6 months for the body to take its final form. Apart from this, the patient should wear a medical corset for 3-4 weeks. These special corsets, which are not visible under the clothing, allow the treated area to take its new shape more quickly.
Since Vaser liposuction is not a weight loss application, it is inevitable for the patient to gain weight again after the operation if the patient does not diet and exercise and continues to eat excessively. However, new fat formation is not localized as before the operation, it is evenly distributed all over the body. On the contrary, a healthy diet and an active life and a fit and healthy appearance obtained with the operation are preserved. Other points to be considered are as follows;
- Bathing should not be taken until the doctor’s approval after the procedure,
- The use of medical corsets should not be disrupted,
- A healthy lifestyle should be adopted in order not to gain weight again,
- Medicines given by the doctor should be used regularly for the period recommended,
- Heavy activities should be avoided for about 2-3 weeks,
- Smoking and alcohol should not be used for the period recommended by the doctor.
