Liposuction before and after love handles

Localized fat in the buttocks is a common concern for many women. Fat accumulation in this area is difficult to eliminate because it involves one of the most powerful muscle groups in the body: physical activity alone can lead to further swelling, and an improper workout can result in localized cellulite. In addition to lifestyle changes, poor posture can also contribute to fluid retention in the buttocks. Buttock liposuction can be an effective way to achieve a more harmonious silhouette. This procedure not only gently removes excess fat using laser technology but also stimulates skin tightening and combats fluid retention, improving or even eliminating localized cellulite.

Buttock liposuction: useful information

Buttock liposuction requires careful attention from the surgeon because, to achieve optimal results, a case-by-case evaluation is necessary. The buttocks are, in fact, muscles, and the patient must understand that the aesthetic outcome of buttock liposuction also depends on physical conformation: buttock liposuction permanently removes excess fat, but it does not affect the muscle itself! This means that if the goal is not only to remove excess fat but also to lift sagging buttocks, buttock liposuction should be combined with other cosmetic treatments. It is also crucial to determine the amount of fat to be removed and the areas where more or less fat will be extracted, in order to give the buttocks a natural appearance, avoiding hollows or asymmetries, which are the main cause of complaints after buttock liposuction surgery.

Excess fat or muscle laxity?

Buttock liposuction is not a solution for everyone: the Doctor Stéphane SmarritoBy following a specific procedure during the anamnesis phase, the surgeon can determine the best course of action for the individual. The examination for buttock liposuction must be performed in a standing position: muscle contraction in this position allows for the assessment of laxity and fat accumulation in the outer half of the buttocks and under the gluteal fold.
After careful evaluation, if excess fat is present, the area should be treated; otherwise, caution is advised, because with buttock liposuction, there is a risk of further thinning the skin tissue, resulting in an unsightly fold.

Buttock liposuction: skin retraction

Skin retraction after buttock liposuction is another factor that should not be underestimated. Fat in the buttock area is crucial: if too much is removed by liposuction, damage can occur.

This is why the buttocks must be treated with great care: excessive retraction of the area would further accentuate the lateral profile of the thigh.

In addition to the surgeon's attention during the procedure, the postoperative care provided by the patient is crucial to the outcome. The patient must commit to wearing the compression garment or stockings according to the prescribed regimen and undergo a series of lymphatic drainage massage sessions using the Vodder method to promote tissue retraction and reactivate the lymphatic system.

Duration of the buttock liposuction procedure

 The procedure for treating the buttocks alone takes approximately 90 minutes. After the buttock liposuction, the patient is discharged from the hospital and, once the dressing is removed (after 48 hours), can resume their daily activities.
