HI-DEF Liposuction
With the Hi-Def liposuction operation, 2-3 millimeter incisions are opened in the fat accumulated in the body, and the sound waves sent with the help of cones are broken down and muscle shadows are created in certain areas. While women have sporty and curvy body lines, men whose abdominal muscles (six pack) are shaped gain a more athletic appearance.
The operation is performed under general anesthesia. Depending on the number of areas where fat is to be taken, the operation time may vary. 1 night hospital stay is required.
The edema and bruises that occur after the operation will pass over time. It is necessary to wear a special corset given by the hospital for 3 weeks. You can return to work life after 1 week. After 4 weeks, light sports such as jogging, walking and cardio can be done.
What should be considered before the operation?
You should share all your expectations and concerns with your doctor. You should answer in detail the information you will be asked about your general health status, and inform your doctor about the diseases you have had and the medications you use. Factors affecting anesthesia such as blood thinners, vitamins, alcohol and smoking should be discontinued as of the date prescribed by your doctor.
Nothing should be drunk or eaten, including water, at least 6 hours before the operation time.
What should be known about anesthesia?
General anesthesia is a sleep period in which there is no awareness so that the patient does not feel pain and does not move during the operation. It can be applied to all patients regardless of age and gender.
Since it is personal, your anesthesiologist will evaluate your condition before the surgery according to the drugs you use, your diseases and your laboratory results. If you have received anesthesia in your previous surgeries, your past information will be questioned. Your circulatory and respiratory systems are checked. A fasting period of at least 6 hours is required before the operation. For the safety of these patients, it is important to avoid vomiting and aspiration.
You will be put to sleep by administering medication through the vascular access in general anesthesia. Since the drugs used are short-acting, their effects do not remain after the surgery. In general anesthesia, laryngeal mask can be used or intratracheal intubation can be applied. As a result, a sore throat may be felt after the surgery, although it is rare.
After the surgery, you are free to eat and drink after your consciousness and reflexes are restored.
Nausea and vomiting are common side effects of general anesthesia. On the other hand, anti-nausea drugs are given in the service.
