Liposuction is one of the most effective ways to eliminate stubborn fat that resists diet and exercise. Through a minimally invasive procedure, fat is suctioned from targeted areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or arms, giving you a slimmer, more toned appearance. It’s perfect for those looking to contour their body and achieve a smoother, more sculpted silhouette.
To ensure the best possible outcome and a smooth recovery, it’s essential to properly prepare for your liposuction surgery. Below are the important steps and guidelines to follow in the weeks leading up to your procedure:
Smoking significantly impairs the body’s ability to heal and increases the risk of complications. To optimize your recovery and reduce the risk of infection, we strongly recommend quitting smoking at least 4-6 weeks before your surgery, and refraining from smoking during your recovery period.
For your safety, all contraceptive pills must be stopped at least one month prior to surgery. This is necessary to reduce the risk of blood clots and to support optimal circulation during your procedure.
Alcohol can interfere with anesthesia, increase swelling, and slow down the healing process. To ensure a smoother surgery and recovery, please limit alcohol intake at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure and refrain from drinking during your recovery period.
Blood-thinning medications, certain supplements, and herbal teas can increase the risk of bleeding during surgery. Please stop taking these at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure. Always consult with your surgeon about any medications or supplements you're currently taking to ensure a safe and effective surgery.
Payments for your procedure should be made in cash. Bank transfers should be done 7 days prior to arrival and if you prefer to pay by credit card, a processing fee will be added to the total amount, and the payment must be processed before your arrival in the country.
If you're traveling from abroad, ensure that you have the appropriate visa for entry into Turkey. If your country requires a visa, feel free to reach out to our team for assistance—we're happy to help with the process.
A well-balanced, nutritious diet is key to supporting your body’s healing process. Eat nutrient-rich foods in the weeks leading up to your surgery to help strengthen your immune system and prepare your body for the procedure.
It’s important to prepare a comfortable, quiet space for recovery at home. Take time off from work and avoid any strenuous activities to ensure your body can focus on healing. Having a cozy space to rest will help support a quicker and more comfortable recovery.
Smoking can slow healing and increase the risk of complications. It’s advised to stop smoking at least 4-6 weeks before surgery and during recovery.
Some medications, especially blood thinners, should be stopped before surgery. Discuss all medications and supplements with your dentist.
Alcohol can interfere with anesthesia and recovery. Avoid drinking for at least 1-2 weeks before the procedure.
Payments for your procedure should be made in cash. If you prefer to pay via credit card, a processing fee will be applied to the final payment.
Eat a nutritious, balanced diet leading up to your procedure to support your healing and immune system.

The day of your liposuction procedure is carefully planned to ensure everything goes smoothly and you feel confident and comfortable. Here’s what you can expect when you arrive:
Upon arrival, you’ll check in, and our team will guide you to the pre-operative area where you’ll change into a surgical gown. Your vital signs will be monitored before the procedure.
A routine blood test will be conducted to ensure you're in optimal health for surgery. This helps assess key factors like blood clotting and general health, which are essential for a safe surgery.
After the blood tests are complete, you will meet with your surgeon to discuss the final details of your procedure. This is the perfect time to ask any last-minute questions or clarify any concerns. Your surgeon will review the areas to be treated, discuss the desired outcomes, and confirm the plan based on your goals. Together, you’ll go over the markings on your body to map out exactly where the liposuction will take place.
Once you and your surgeon are aligned on the areas to be treated, your surgeon will mark the treatment areas on your body. These markings are critical to ensure precise and even results. The areas to be treated will be clearly outlined, helping guide the procedure and providing a visual reference for your surgical team.
After the consultation and markings, you’ll be led to the operating room. Here, you will be given anesthesia, which could be local or general depending on the extent of the procedure and your surgeon’s recommendations. The anesthesia ensures that you will be comfortable and pain-free throughout the surgery.
Once you’re fully comfortable and sedated, your surgeon will begin the liposuction procedure. Using the latest techniques and technology, small incisions will be made, and a cannula (thin tube) will be inserted to break up and suction out excess fat. The procedure typically lasts a few hours, depending on the areas being treated. During this time, you’ll be closely monitored by our skilled medical team.
Upon arrival, you'll check in and be escorted to a pre-operative area. You’ll change into a gown, and your vital signs will be monitored.
You’ll meet with your dentist to confirm the details of your procedure. This is the time to ask any final questions about your aesthetic goals, the procedure, and the recovery process. Your dentist will also mark the areas to be treated.
For most procedures, local anesthesia will be used to numb the treatment area. If needed, light sedation may also be provided to ensure your comfort.
Depending on the procedure (Smile Makeover, crowns, veneers, or implants), your dentist will take the necessary steps to prepare your teeth. This may involve removing damaged or decayed portions of the teeth, placing temporary crowns or veneers, or placing dental implants.
After the procedure, you’ll be moved to a recovery area, where you’ll be monitored as the anesthesia wears off. Comfort and safety are prioritized during this phase.
By the time your surgery is complete, you’ll have the contours and results you’ve been aiming for. Afterward, you will be moved to a recovery area where you’ll be monitored as the anesthesia wears off. The care team will ensure you're comfortable and answer any questions you may have. The next steps will be focused on your post-surgery care and recovery, which our team will guide you through in detail. We’re here every step of the way to make sure your experience is as seamless and comfortable as possible.
After your liposuction procedure, your comfort and care are our top priorities. We want to ensure you have a smooth recovery and the best possible results. Here’s what you can expect during the recovery process:
After your surgery, you will spend one night in the hospital for observation. Our medical team will monitor your condition to ensure everything is progressing well and that there are no complications. During this time, you’ll be closely watched as your body begins the initial healing process.
The following day, once you’re stable, you’ll be discharged from the hospital. One of our team members will escort you back to your hotel, where you’ll be encouraged to rest and relax. This is the time to allow your body to recover, and we recommend avoiding any strenuous activity during this period.
After liposuction, massage therapy plays an important role in your recovery. These massages help reduce swelling, improve circulation, and assist in the smooth contouring of the treated areas. We include two post-operative massage sessions with a licensed therapist as part of your care plan. If you'd like additional massages, you can arrange for more sessions at your own cost.
During your recovery, you will have a follow-up appointment with your surgeon. This is a crucial check-in to ensure the treated areas are healing well, and to address any questions or concerns you may have. Your surgeon will also review your aftercare instructions and provide guidance on what to expect as you continue your recovery journey.
Once your recovery is progressing well and you’re feeling comfortable, you’ll be ready to fly back home. By this point, you will have had your post-operative appointment and will be fully prepared to continue your recovery at home. You’ll leave with clear aftercare instructions and a follow-up plan, making it easy for you to stay on track during your healing process.
Throughout your recovery, our team will be there to support you. Should you have any concerns or questions, we are always available to ensure your healing goes smoothly, and you feel confident in your results.

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess fat from targeted areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, or chin, to improve body contours. The process involves making small incisions and using a thin tube (cannula) to suction out fat. It’s ideal for individuals who are near their ideal weight but have stubborn fat pockets that don’t respond to diet or exercise.
Ideal candidates for liposuction are healthy individuals who are close to their target weight but have localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It’s not a weight-loss solution, but rather a body contouring procedure. You should have realistic expectations and be in overall good health with no underlying conditions that could affect healing.
Most patients can return to light activities after 1-2 weeks, but full recovery typically takes 4-6 weeks. Swelling and bruising may persist for several weeks, but as your body heals, the results will become more visible. Your surgeon will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help manage pain and swelling and ensure optimal recovery.
Yes, the fat cells removed during liposuction do not regenerate, so the results are permanent. However, if you gain significant weight after the procedure, the remaining fat cells in untreated areas may enlarge, potentially affecting your overall results. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and weight is essential to keeping your results long-term.
Liposuction is performed under local or general anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the surgery. After the procedure, you may experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with prescribed pain medications. The pain usually subsides after a few days, and any residual discomfort can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
The amount of fat that can be safely removed depends on your body and health. Typically, up to 5 liters (about 11 pounds) of fat can be removed during a single session. Your surgeon will discuss your specific goals and determine the optimal amount of fat to be removed, ensuring safety and achieving the best results.
A full facelift targets both the lower face and neck, lifting more tissue for a more dramatic result, while a mini facelift focuses on the lower face and is less invasive with shorter recovery time.

Most women are able to breastfeed after breast implant replacement, but it depends on the technique used and the amount of tissue altered. Be sure to discuss your concerns about breastfeeding with your surgeon before the procedure.
It is possible to breastfeed after breast reduction, but the ability to do so may depend on the technique used and how much tissue is removed. Discuss this with your surgeon prior to surgery to understand the potential impact on breastfeeding.
