leg liposuction surgery turkey-thigh liposuction surgery

Leg liposuction or thigh sculpting is a procedure preferred by people who have excess fat in the leg areas. Fat accumulated in the legs due to reasons such as excessive weight gain, physiological structure disorders, and permanent fat disorders, make the body look bad. The fat accumulated in the thigh area makes it difficult for a person to move. If the fat accumulated in this area is not reduced or removed, it causes risky situations in people’s musculoskeletal system after a while.

thigh liposuction surgery

The process of liposuction of the thighs is not only a cosmetic procedure, but rather a health procedure. The aim is to get rid of the fat accumulated in the legs in a short time, and to remove cellulite in the thighs that appear after pregnancy, and its aim is to make the thighs appear healthier. After surgery, body image changes permanently. However, in this permanent process, patients may aim at healthy movements and not lubricate again.

The leg area is one of the main areas that provides an aesthetic appearance along with the hip and buttocks. Through thigh sculpting, which can be performed on both women and men, they can easily get rid of fat that cannot be eliminated.

Thigh plastic surgeries

Cosmetic procedures performed on the upper leg, hips, ankles and knees in order to make the legs appear thinner, smoother and flawless are called leg liposuction. Leg liposuction operations aim to remove and remove fat from the legs area. This procedure is recommended for people who have hereditary thick leg areas or who do not suffer from thinning of their legs despite exercising. In plastic surgery, the entire thigh fat is extracted, and the upper and lower legs are balanced.

How is leg liposuction performed?

Patients who will undergo leg liposuction are first examined by a doctor. Detailed information about the operation that will be performed and the amount of fat that will be sculpted is determined according to the structure. Patients are informed about symptoms that may occur before, during and after the procedure and what to do. Thus, patients learn this process consciously. Depending on the amount of fat being suctioned, the procedure may take from 1.5 to 3 hours. Leg fat removal surgery is performed under general anesthesia. Before the thigh sculpting procedure, the areas of fat accumulated on the leg are highlighted. Small incisions are made in the selected areas. Incisions made in areas with severe fat in the leg area are inserted through a thin cannula. If the amount of fat to be removed is small, the fat is divided into small pieces with laser beams without the need for liposuction surgery. Thanks to the placement of these cannulas through thin incisions, there is no visible scar after the operation.

In the process of leg liposuction, the necessary fatty tissue is withdrawn and then the procedure is completed. It is recommended to stay in the hospital for one day after this operation. After the procedure, patients wear a corset and compression stockings suitable for the area where the fat was removed. It is necessary to rest at home for the first week after the operation. After the first week, daily life can continue. The healing process takes between one and two months for all patients.

vaser liposuction legs

Vaser liposuction separates fat cells from their place and makes them liquid with ultrasound. While doing this, it is very respectful of the fatty tissue and connective tissue surrounding the vascular structure and has minimal effect. Due to the preserved vascular structures, it is expected to be less bloody than traditional liposuction, and because it does not cause damage to connective tissue, the recovery period is expected to be faster. It has been concluded that retention rates are high when adipose tissue extracted by VASER liposuction is transferred to another area for the purposes of autologous fat injection. Leg sculpting with VASER liposuction is the leg plastic surgery method we prefer in our hospital.

Laser leg liposuction

Leg sculpting operations using laser liposuction are a technology that has emerged due to technological developments and has some advantages compared to classic liposuction. One of the advantages of laser liposuction is that it provides coagulation (less bleeding) by heat compared to traditional liposuction. In addition, another advantage is that it provides contraction (tightening) of the skin with the thermal effect it produces. However, the resulting heat effect brings risks of burns and fibrosis (undesirable healing tissue). This may appear to the clinic as skin irregularities.

Does leg sculpting leave scars?

Since the procedure is performed through small incisions of about 1 cm in leg sculpting with VASER liposuction, and these incisions are placed in natural camouflaged areas, the leg sculpting process is completed with minimal scarring. Over time, these tiny cracks become quite obscure as they take on the color of the skin.

Cellulite treatment with liposuction

Medical specialists are searching for different treatment methods to remove cellulite, but their effectiveness has not been fully confirmed through scientific research. As for the Vaser thigh liposuction method, the process of suctioning and tightening the thighs removes large amounts of cracks in the thigh, because the Vaser device tightens the skin from Inwardly, but this method can exacerbate dimpling in some cases. This method can reduce cellulite in the long term.

Leg liposuction prices

The price of thigh sculpting in Turkey varies from type to type of plastic surgery, depending on the amount of fat that will be taken, the age of the patient, the dangerous conditions of the area, whether the person has any disease or not, or if there are musculoskeletal diseases.

In addition, prices for leg fat removal surgery vary depending on the doctor’s equipment, experience, and job title. On this topic, doctors conduct individual interviews with the patient and explain the technique to be applied and the surgery to be performed according to the current health condition. The price is determined depending on the length of stay in the hospital.

Sitting after thigh liposuction

Because there are incisions in the thigh area, the patient must be careful when moving. Sitting, standing and walking can pull the area, you need to reduce movements in the first week.

How long does thigh liposuction take to heal?
