In addition, liposuction of the legs is characterized by a low degree of traumatism (compared to surgical classical techniques), does not leave scars, post-operative scars and has quite affordable value.

This operation will not bring any effect in case of obesity, and the main contraindication to its implementation is varicose veins.

Liposuction of lower legs

Liposuction of the lower leg is a highly effective non-invasive technique that will help in the shortest time to get rid of the problem of full shins and eliminate excess fat tissues localized in this area.

Contraindications to liposuction of the shin is thrombophlebitis, which occurs in acute or chronic form, as well as decreased blood coagulability. When liposuction of calves is often used laser technique, characterized by painlessness and a minimum degree of trauma.

A special laser device splits the fat cells, turning them into a liquid emulsion, which is excreted from the body naturally. As a result, there are no scars, and the skin is significantly rejuvenated.

Liposuction of the shank with a laser is in most cases carried out using local anesthesia and takes about an hour. This procedure gives exceptional aesthetic results with the concomitant effect of skin rejuvenation, without the formation of scars or scar tissue.

In certain cases, the plastic surgeon liposuction of calves is carried out by radio wave method. The effect of high frequencies and temperatures allows for a short period to split the subcutaneous fats. The surgeon during the operation adjusts the mode of exposure to radio waves, which makes it possible to avoid the occurrence of any complications, injuries, or burns. The results are saved for a long time.

Thigh Liposuction

This service of aesthetic medicine, like liposuction of the thigh, helps to get rid of unnecessary fat deposits in the hips and so-called “riding breeches”, making the thigh line chisel and slender. Liposuction of the thighs are divided into two types: liposuction on the inner and outer surface of the thigh. First, one side is processed in stages, then the other. What method to use, solves the specialist, based on the testimony and individual characteristics of the patient.

To correct the area of the thighs, in most cases a laser method of liposuction is used. During the procedure, the laser beam acts on the problem area, destroying the structure of fat cells. Laser treatment is performed under local anesthesia, does not take much time, does not leave postoperative scars, and also has a rejuvenating effect.

It is also possible to use the radio wave method. High-frequency impact destroys adipose tissue and actively stimulates the production of collagen. As a result, the hips acquire an ideal shape. Postoperative recovery proceeds quickly, and the patient is ready to return to the normal rhythm of life habitual for him.

No less effective method is injectable lipolysis. Manipulation for the introduction of lipolitics is carried out for a maximum of half an hour. As a result, the thighs are given a beautiful shape, elasticity, slenderness and smooth bending.

Do scars remain on the body of the patient who underwent liposuction of the legs?

Like any other surgical procedure, liposuction leaves behind scars on the body. Their magnitude will depend solely on the level of training of your surgeon and the field of liposuction. For this procedure, we use the cannula – a special medical tube, intended for insertion into the hollow human organs.

The diameter of the cannula is approximately 50 mm, but the diameter of the incision for this tube is even smaller – about 15-20 mm. If you fall into the hands of a truly experienced plastic surgeon, he will try to choose a place for incisions so that traces are lost in the natural folds of your body. In this regard, the likelihood that they will be seen after liposuction is very small.

But I want to emphasize once again – the scars after any surgical operation are inevitable! Fortunately, the markings remaining after liposuction are small. Over time, they dissolve completely. If you want everything to be like this, then trust an experienced certified surgeon, and not someone who offers you any “Christmas discounts”.

After liposuction, there are two types of scars: scar tissue and hyperpigmentation. The latter can be formed from a cut or some abnormality of the skin, like acne. It can often be removed with the help of properly selected ointments. Your surgeon will certainly figure out how to avoid the development of excessive amounts of scar tissue. First, surgeon need to make a master incisions. Secondly, the doctor must prescribe homeopathic or any other means for home use. Only follow strictly the recommendations of the doctor, because on their performance depends not only the volume of postoperative scars, but also the formation of contours of the case, for which, in fact, everything was started.
