Cryoliposuction before/after
Hip liposuction is currently one of the most requested liposuction procedures in Lausanne, Switzerland, as excess fat in this area is very common in both men and women. Indeed, the hips are the primary location where fat cells accumulate. The body naturally stores fat around the hips to build up energy reserves. This primary function dates back to prehistoric times, when humans could survive for several days without food. 
I will take the time to listen to you in order to fully understand your expectations for your hip liposuction!

When is it appropriate to have liposuction of the hips?

La liposuccion Hip surgery can reshape the body and refine this area, contributing to a more youthful silhouette and significantly improving self-esteem. In other words, it can boost the patient's confidence and reduce the measurement of inches on either side of the hips.
The goal of hip liposuction is to eliminate the accumulation of fat in this area of ​​the body.
The goal of hip liposuction is to remove fat deposits from this area of ​​the body. When diet and exercise are ineffective, hip liposuction is the simplest way to restore curves to the body.
The process is simple. The patient will receive local anesthesia to numb the area, and the plastic surgeon will use a laser to gently melt the fat under the skin and stimulate fat tightening. They will then make small incisions to begin the aspiration process using a cannula only 3 mm wide.
Doctor Stéphane Smarrito The procedure involves removing stubborn fat using slow, gentle movements, resulting in minimal pain, less bruising, and a quick recovery. The entire tumescent liposculpture procedure typically lasts at least an hour and reduces fat and tightens the skin. Patients undergoing laser liposuction require only light sedation, and most return to work within a few days. Hip liposuction reduces fat deposits around the hips and restores the patient's body proportions. Because a moderate amount of fat is removed, patients can expect to see noticeable differences within a few weeks of the procedure. Furthermore, recovery is rapid, and subsequent bruising and pain are minimal.

Does liposuction of the hips present any risks?

 Hip liposuction is a safe procedure for most men and women who have significant fat deposits on their hips. It can be combined with other procedures, and many patients choose to undergo hip liposuction at the same time as other procedures, particularly a liposuction of the buttocks or thighs. When hip liposuction is combined with other procedures, the Doctor Smarrito can sculpt and slim the entire hip area and the posterior area.
Patients typically experience only mild discomfort after hip liposuction. They can walk immediately after the procedure and resume their normal activities or return to work within a day or two. Some patients may experience swelling after the operation. In this case, it can take up to two months to see the final results.
In the case of liposuction, there are no stitches, and the small incisions heal naturally in about two days. The most common discomfort experienced by patients is mild soreness, similar to the muscle soreness that accompanies intense physical exercise.
Other post-operative recommendations must also be followed to the letter to obtain satisfactory results: patients must rest and avoid any exertion for the first 48 hours following hip liposuction, adhere to all medical prescriptions and not expose themselves to the sun or intense cold.
