Sides |
Side fat consists of thick layers of fat, due to large amount of fat
deposits; liposuction gives dramatic effect to remove unnecessary fats. Mostly side fats develop in conjunction with development of fat in the
both upper and lower part of abdomen and liposuction can be applied to the side
including abdomen and back. Liposuction not only reduces fat tissues
(lipocyte), but also prevents potential adult diseases.

Abdomen |
On the front and sides of abdomen, fat deposits can get easily developed and get more and more hard to remove it with aging. Abdomen consists of three layers of fat, due to large amount of fat deposits; liposuction gives dramatic effect to remove unnecessary fats. Mostly both upper and lower part of abdomen gains fats and liposuction can be applied to the abdomen and connected areas such as backs and sides. Liposuction not only reduces fat tissues (lipocyte), but also prevents potential adult diseases. |
Thigh |
Thighs do not usually have developed muscle and have poor circulation. Fat easily deposits around front, back, and side of thighs, hips and
knees. Hard to burn the gained fat since it has poor circulation and the tight
muscle is not used much. Especially, extra fat on the outer side of thighs
appears commonly to females with lower body obesity, which is difficult to get
rid of with diet programs and exercises.
Depending on the fat distribution, liposuction will be performed on the
general area of thighs, outer side of thighs, inner side of thighs or up to
areas over knee. The incision will be made through the folds under the bottom, which is
usually hidden under panties. |
Buttocks |
Fat cells (lipocyte) of hips have unique features; fat cell of hips
consists of deep layer of fat, containing hypotonic fat cells with high level of fibers,
so that it forms the character of fat cells dense and firm. Hence, it is
difficult to lose fats by just joining diet program or exercise. Moreover, deformation especially can
be caused to the females’ after childbirth.
Immediate Hip-up effect can be retrieved if the fat removal from the
banana rolls (sagging shape of hip) or thighs is performed, as legs may look
much longer and the position of hips gets lifted. The treatment will be
performed through the folds under the bottom, which is usually hidden under
panties. And the fat from under and outer circle of the bottom will mostly be
removed. Trimming the line from hips to thighs can also be performed by
grafting fat into relatively caved-in area of the bottom. |
Back |
Calves are female's one of the most concerned body parts as it can be
easily exposed wearing skirts. The type of big calves can be divided into: fat
calves with excessive fat, calves with developed muscles and calves with fat
and muscles, so diverse liposuction method should be applied to each type of calves. Liposuction can provide most dramatic result to big calves with large amounts of fats and soft texture. In case of developed muscles on the back side of calves, treatment combined with Botulinum toxin is recommended. |
Gynecomastia |
Gynecomastia refers to the condition of male breasts, which enlarges or
bears lump like female breasts because of the abnormal development of a mammary
gland or excessive fat deposits.
Male breasts usually do not develop like female based on the physical structure,
but it can be developed in puberty due to a rapid hormone transition. In
general, the abnormal development of male breasts turns back to normal shape. If there are no signs of improvement 3-4 years later, the surgery can
restore the breasts with liposuction, unless there is no medical issue or
special problems. |
Underarm |
Underarm fat (armpit fat) is one of the most concerned points especially to females, even skinny people, when they are wearing sleeveless shirts. Mostly underarm fat shows itself as a fold between the upper arm and the outer circle of breasts, since fat deposits are very concentrated in the area of underarms. It is difficult to get rid of it, as females not use or move the underarms muscles often. Accessory breast can also make the underarm area looks plump and fatty. Though accessory breasts are not developed, glands can still remain and shape underarm area bumpy. Accessory breast (polymastia, supernumerary breasts) referred as condition of having an additional breast. The types of surgeries to correct the problem vary depending on the developed degree of accessory breast; a simple liposuction can be performed or little complicated, by removing the skin and the tissues consisting accessory breast. For the latter type, the small incision can be made to remove fat and gland tissues with accessory breast.

Arm |
The fat layer around the arm is not thick compared to other areas; surgery must be carried with meticulous care for the effective result.
The back area of the arms are formed of fine and dense fat molecules, so thickened arms with accumulated fat is difficult to remove by just exercising or diet program. The fat layer around the arm is not very thick, compared to other areas; surgery must be carried with meticulous care for the effective result. Fat will be removed from the small incision, made on the elbow area or the armpit crease and keeping the natural arm shape evenly. Even with a small amount of fat removal or small surgical area, the effect is dramatic.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is general anesthesia required? | ||
The former liposuction technique required general or sleeping anesthesia. If liposuction was planned to be performed in a partial area, general anesthesia is not mandatory.
However, general anesthesia is required
for the following occasions: If liposuction is performed in two different areas
or more than 5000cc fat is planned to be removed. In case removal of considerable amount of fat is planned,
the treatment should be performed step by step, to minimize the trauma.
|
How big is the scar from liposuction? | ||
5mm small incision is unavoidable as a special tube is to be inserted in order to remove fat during the liposuction. However, the incision is usually made in the hidden area, where it can be covered with innerwear and/or skin folds. At first, the incised area could appear to be red, which will turn into much natural color as scar gets healed.
|
How long do I need to wear a compression garments/ CORSET/ Compression clothes/ compression innerwear/ functional underwear after liposuction? | ||
One month is usually advised to wear but it is also recommended for up to 3 months. The garments will definitely reduce to short-term swelling and may help improving the contour, as it compresses the vacant space where large amount of fat cells are removed. |
