    Plastic Surgery Thailand : FAQ FAQ : Criteria

    Who is a candidate for liposuction?
    Generally people who have localized areas of protruding fat achieve the most dramatic results. Patients who are slightly overweight can benefit from liposuction. It is best to be at or near your normal weight. Good skin elasticity permits the skin to shrink easily to the reduced contour. There are no absolute age limits for liposuction.

    FAQ : Surgical Procedure

    What is Liposuction?
    Liposuction is the surgical vacuuming of fat from beneath the surface of the skin. It is used to reduce fullness in any area of the body. It is an excellent method of spot reduction but is not an effective method of weight loss.

    What are the risks and complications?
    Liposuction is a relatively safe and effective surgical procedure. However, as with any surgery, complications may occur, such as: infection, blood clots, skin loss and even death. Some variations from the ideal result may also occur, including waviness in the skin surface; temporary pain, swelling or bruising; and a permanent "baggy" look which is caused if the skin fails to contract to fit its new contour. When the latter condition occurs, the excess skin may need to be surgically removed.

    How quick is recovery?
    Patients are usually able to walk around and care for themselves the day after the operation, although an extra day or two of bed rest may be needed when large amounts of fat have been removed. Typically, the patient will be able to return to work on the third or fourth day after small areas are treated, and one or two weeks after more extensive procedures. It should be kept in mind that liposuction is surgery, and the body has to heal before the full benefits of the procedure are seen. Results may be visible as early as two or three weeks after surgery, but the full effect may not be evident for three to six months.

    FAQ : Procedure

    What areas are most frequently treated?
    In women, the single most frequently treated areas are the outer thighs, followed by the stomach. In men, the flank area or "love handles" are treated most frequently.

    Can liposuction tighten up a loose neck?
    If there is excess fat in the area under the chin and the skin is taut, liposuction alone can produce a more sculpted, angular, and youthful jaw line. If, however, the skin of the neck is loose, hanging, or crepey, even if there is excess fat, liposuction alone will not produce the desired result. Patients with loose skin usually require a face and neck lift in addition to or instead of liposuction. In general, most patients who benefit from liposuction of the neck are under 40. Most patients over 40 will require some surgical skin tightening.

    Liposuction seems very simple and safe. Are there any dangers?
    Although liposuction is very safe and effective, it is a surgical procedure and can cause complications such as infection, bleeding, and nerve damage. In addition, aesthetic complications such as skin irregularity or waviness can occur if too much fat has been removed. Fortunately, complications are uncommon and most patients are satisfied with their results.

    What do the points mean?
    The point that we mention in our website means the area where you perfer to have liposuction, those are; waistline (1 point), abdomen (1 point), outer thighs (1 point), inner thighs (1 point) ,buttocks (1 point), knees (1 point), ankles (1 point), neckline (1 point).

    FAQ : Result

    How long will the results last?
    The results of liposuction will be permanent, as long as you maintain your postoperative weight. Even if you gain a few extra pounds, you may find that the weight is distributed more evenly instead of accumulating in the areas that were problematic for you in the past.
