Surgery » Liposuction
Abdominal liposuction is not a universal solution for every patient; in many cases, it forms part of a broader body contouring strategy combined with abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). Post-operative effects may include localized swelling, mild soreness, and minor bruising, which subside naturally. Following the procedure, patients wear a specialized abdominal compression garment to support tissue healing, reduce edema, and optimize skin retraction.
Achieving your desired abdominal contours requires a personalized surgical plan. Dr. Sarit Cohen, specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery, invites you for a comprehensive consultation to evaluate your anatomical characteristics and formulate a tailored treatment strategy using advanced surgical protocols and technology.
Abdominal liposuction is performed through micro-incisions placed within natural skin creases. Specialized thin cannulas are used to perform controlled fat extraction across targeted anatomical zones. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia or light sedation, depending on the treatment volume. Liposuction is designed for targeted contouring in individuals near their ideal weight; it is not a procedure for generalized weight loss or obesity management. A thorough physical assessment of skin elasticity and tissue quality is essential during preoperative planning.
While liposuction effectively evacuates deep and superficial fat layers, it does not treat significant skin laxity or excess redundant skin. To achieve a smooth, firm abdomen free of both stubborn fat and loose skin, a combined approach incorporating abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) may be recommended. Abdominoplasty involves a low transverse incision, through which excess skin is excised and underlying abdominal muscles (rectus diastasis) are repaired. Combining targeted liposuction with abdominoplasty delivers the most dramatic, harmonious, and long-lasting body contouring results.
