Power-assisted liposuction is one of the modern methods of fat removal that we use to help our patients to achieve a perfect body form and dreamt-of body lines. It is the least invasive treatment eliminating superfluous, mainly fibrous fat tissue on the selected problematic part of the body.

Similarly to classic, ultrasonic or tumescent liposuction, power-assisted liposuction does not cure obesity. Its goal is removing undesirable fat cells from a particular part of the body. Our clinic has a rich experience in this method, practicing it for liposuction of abdomen, buttocks, thighs and hips, as well as knees or arms.
This type of procedure is preferred by the physicians for the purpose of corrective liposuction. It is used as a complement to other kinds of liposuction, for instance in order to smooth out the transitional areas between parts treated and untreated by liposuction.
A person interested in surgical evacuation of fat should meet several important criteria. They include certain body weight, well delimited body parts with excess fat, a firm elastic skin, a good health condition, as well as a good mental balance. Liposuction can improve one’s appearance and self-assurance, but it is no miraculous method taking care of other personal problems.
The treatment is beneficial mainly as a result of increased self-assurance associated with an improved physical appearance.
In aesthetic surgery, a prior consultation has a double importance. At our clinic, we talk with our patients about the possibilities available and about probable results of interventions. If they do not correspond to patient’s expectations, it is better not to undertake the operation.
Power-assisted liposuction is a modern and sensitive method of fat removal. This relatively undemanding treatment is based on the use of a vibrating cannula, oscillating in subtle movements and thus facilitating the penetration of tissues.
more informationThe principle of this kind of treatment consists in removal of subcutaneous fat by connecting the vibration cannula with a standard diameter of 3 to 5 millimetres to a vacuum generating device.
Subcutaneous fat is suctioned from tiny incisions by repeated entries of the cannula into the tissues creating miniscule tunnels where fat is removed. During this treatment by experienced Esthé surgeons, a dense net of these tunnels is built, which results in achieving a large and even reduction of subcutaneous fat layer.
A significant advantage of this treatment, similarly to other surgical methods of liposuction, is a permanent effect of the procedure. In an adult, the number of fat cells is stable, cells do not multiply, only their size can change. That is why a reduction of their number using power-assisted liposuction brings a permanent effect to the particular part of the body.
No special preparation is required before this type of treatment. Merely some basic general rules should be observed, such as cessation of use of medications influencing blood clotting three weeks before the intervention. From midnight before the surgery, the patient should not eat, drink and smoke.
However, the intervention requires a good health condition. When an inflammatory skin disease, acne proliferation, eczema, skin fungus or an overall unfavourable condition occurs, postponing the treatment is no problem.
Power-assisted liposuction can be performed under both general and local anaesthesia. Abdominal wall liposuction usually takes 1.5 hours, liposuction of hips or outer thighs approximately 1 hour.
In the first five days after power-assisted liposuction, quiet rest is recommended, with no strenuous activity, enough respite and frequent relaxation. After that, patients can gradually resume their usual activities.

Contrary to ultrasonic liposuction, swellings and bruises may occur immediately after the intervention. However, they disappear very soon.
During their convalescence, our patients usually wear elastic underwear or girdles.
The result of the intervention is fully visible after 4 to 6 weeks, when patients have no restriction any more.
Complications caused by liposuction are very rare, and power-assisted liposuction is no exception. As every body responds in a different way to surgery, accumulated liquid in the underskin tissue, swelling, loose skin, unevenness or changes in colour may exceptionally occur. However, thanks to many years of experience of our surgeons, we are able to prevent such phenomena in good time and efficiently.
Here, you will find all of the preoperative evaluation and instruction prior your operation.
May not be performed sooner than 14 days before the operation.
Take the evaluation report with you on the day of your operation.
Please note, that patients with an incomplete preoperative evaluation cannot be operated.
