Liposuction – For a more harmonious body shape
Some fat deposits cannot be completely eliminated even with exercise, a healthy diet, and discipline. Stubborn fat deposits often persist, especially in problem areas such as the stomach, hips, thighs, or arms. If your dream figure seems unattainable despite all efforts, liposuction can offer an effective solution.
Liposuction permanently removes unwanted fat cells – in a targeted, tissue-sparing manner, and using modern, safe methods. This allows the body silhouette to be optimized and aesthetically reshaped in key areas – individually tailored to your needs.
Dr. Christian Graß will advise you in detail about liposuction and plan the procedure with extensive experience, precision, and an eye for natural results.
When is liposuction useful?
Liposuction is recommended when certain areas of the body appear disproportionate despite physical activity and a healthy diet, disrupting the overall appearance. Common reasons for liposuction include genetic fat distribution disorders, hormonal changes, or simply the desire for a more harmonious contour. It's important to note that liposuction is not a substitute for dieting, but is suitable for people of normal weight or slightly overweight with local problem areas.

How liposuction works and what is important afterward
Preparation
Before the procedure, you will have a detailed consultation with Dr. Christian Graß. Your wishes, the areas of the body involved, and the appropriate technique will be discussed. Your medical history will also be taken into account.
Please note: Blood-thinning medications should be discontinued approximately 14 days before surgery. Nicotine and alcohol should also be avoided before and after the procedure, if possible, to promote healing.
The treatment
Liposuction is usually performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. The duration depends on the extent of the treatment—usually two to four hours. The areas to be treated are marked beforehand. A fine cannula is then inserted through tiny incisions in the skin, through which the previously dissolved fat is gently suctioned out.
In some cases, the removed fat can be reused for fat transfer (e.g. to the face or buttocks) to achieve additional volume effects.
After treatment
Immediately after the procedure, you will be given special compression garments, which you should wear for several weeks. This will help reduce swelling, tighten the skin, and ensure an even result.
Rest is important during the first few days. You should avoid sports and physically demanding activities for about 4–6 weeks. You'll usually be able to socialize again after about a week.
The result develops gradually: After about one month, the first results are visible, and the final result becomes apparent after about 3-6 months.
What are the risks of liposuction?
Liposuction is a proven and safe procedure. However, as with any surgery, there are certain risks. These include:
-
Swelling, bruising, pressure
-
Temporary sensory disturbances
-
Asymmetries
-
Rarely infections, bleeding or impaired wound healing
Through the careful execution of the procedure by Dr. Christian Graß and comprehensive aftercare, we minimize possible complications and ensure safe healing.
