Stubborn fat deposits around the waist, commonly known as “love handles,” can be particularly resistant to diet and exercise. At Rattinan Clinic in Bangkok, we offer Flank Liposuction to effectively target and eliminate these fat pockets, enhancing your body’s natural contours.
Purpose
- Trim Love Handles: Remove excess fat from the sides of the waist to eliminate bulges.
- Enhance Waist Definition: Create a more defined waistline, contributing to an hourglass or V-shaped figure.
Procedure Time
Approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on the volume of fat being removed and individual patient factors.
Ideal Candidate
You may be a suitable candidate if you:
- Have localized fat deposits on the sides of your waist.
- Possess good skin elasticity to ensure smooth post-liposuction results.
- Do not have significant visceral (deep organ) fat issues.
- Are in good overall health and maintain a stable weight.
Techniques Used at Rattinan Clinic
We employ advanced technologies to ensure precise and effective fat removal:
- MicroAire Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL): Enhances precision in fat removal with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues.
- BodyTite: Utilizes radiofrequency-assisted liposuction for simultaneous fat removal and skin tightening, beneficial for areas with reduced skin elasticity.
Scarring
- Minimal Incisions: Small (3–5 mm) incisions strategically placed near the back waist or just above the hips.
- Discreet Appearance: Incisions are typically hidden by underwear or bikini lines and fade over time, becoming barely noticeable.
Recovery
- Minimal Downtime: Most patients can resume light activities within a few days.
- Compression Garment: Wearing a compression garment for 4–6 weeks helps reduce swelling and supports the new body contours.
- Full Results: Visible within 1–3 months as swelling subsides.
Important Considerations
- Combination Procedures: Flank liposuction is often combined with abdominal liposuction for comprehensive torso contouring, enhancing overall body proportions.
- Not a Weight Loss Solution: This procedure is intended for body contouring and is not a substitute for weight loss.
- Maintenance: Sustaining results requires a commitment to a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet.
