Aesthetic Liposuction – for a harmonious body silhouette

Aesthetic liposuction is a targeted form of body contouring that removes stubborn fat deposits that often cannot be influenced by diet and exercise alone. It’s not about radical change, but about giving the body a naturally harmonious shape.

Typical areas include, for example, the abdomen, waist, flanks, thighs, upper arms, or chin. Through precise and gentle technique, contours can be smoothed, transitions harmonized, and proportions balanced – for a coherent body feeling and more self-confidence in everyday life.

“Bea”uty is in the eye of the beholder.
– and sometimes also in one’s own reflection.

We take the time to work with you to find out what feels right and beautiful for you personally – and implement your wishes with medical care, aesthetic sensitivity, and a realistic view.

Abdomen and waist – targeted contouring for the body

The abdomen is one of the most common regions where stubborn fat deposits form, even with a slim figure and active lifestyle. Hormonal influences, predisposition, or pregnancies can cause the subcutaneous fat tissue in the abdominal area to distribute unevenly or settle permanently – despite exercise and conscious nutrition.

Aesthetic liposuction can help define the midsection, emphasize the waist, and create an overall more harmonious silhouette – without exaggerated or artificial effects.

What can be achieved with abdominal liposuction:

  • Reduction of fat deposits in the lower abdomen or entire abdominal area
  • Modeling of a softly flowing, natural waist
  • Improvement of contour for love handles or hormone-related abdominal fat

Especially in the abdominal area, additional skin tightening can be performed using BodyTite® – without large incisions, but with visible tightening effects, if skin elasticity allows.

Important: Liposuction is not a substitute for weight loss. It serves to improve shape, not reduce weight – it is ideal for normal or slightly elevated BMI.

After the procedure, you will wear compression garments for 8-10 weeks to minimize swelling and optimally support healing. The result develops gradually – the final result is visible after 6 to 12 months.

Upper arms – defined contours for a better body feeling

Fat accumulations on the upper arms are a sensitive issue for many women. Even with an overall slim appearance, soft, often sagging fat deposits can form here that are hardly influenced by exercise and diet. Especially in summer or with sleeveless clothing, many affected people find this disturbing or limiting.

Aesthetic liposuction can help significantly slim the arm contour, define the transition to the shoulder, and achieve a lighter, firmer appearance.

What can be achieved through liposuction of the upper arms:

  • Reduction of fat deposits in the upper arm area (bingo wings)
  • Harmonization of proportions between arms and upper body
  • Improvement of skin appearance with simultaneous use of BodyTite®
  • Increased well-being in movement and when wearing figure-hugging clothing

In many cases, the combination of liposuction and radiofrequency tightening (BodyTite®) can eliminate the need for surgical tightening with incisions – provided the skin quality is sufficient.

The same applies to the arms: The result develops gradually, with the final outcome usually visible after 6 to 12 months. Immediately after the procedure, you will wear a special compression garment (ready-made) to support healing and promote even results.

Thighs – gentle modeling for naturally beautiful legs

The thighs are among the most common areas where localized fat deposits appear – usually on the hips (“saddlebags”), inner thighs, or knees. These fat deposits are often genetically determined and hardly influenced by exercise or healthy eating. They can make the entire leg appear misshapen, lead to friction in everyday life, and limit clothing choices.

Aesthetic liposuction of the thighs aims to reduce contour-changing fat deposits, harmoniously sculpt the thighs, and balance the proportions between upper and lower body.

What can be achieved through liposuction of the thighs:

  • Reduction of saddlebags or fat deposits on the inner thighs and knees
  • Improvement of leg line and silhouette
  • Reduction of friction in everyday life (e.g., when walking, exercising, or sitting)
  • Firmer, more defined transitions to buttocks, hips, and knees

In combination with BodyTite®, additional skin tightening can be achieved without incisions, given appropriate skin quality – particularly useful on the inner thighs.

After the procedure, you will wear suitable compression tights or a compression garment to support healing. The final result is visible after about 6 to 12 months – however, initial changes are often noticeable after just a few weeks.

Chin – fine contour for a clear profile

A soft or protruding chin, often referred to as a “double chin”, can strongly influence the facial profile – regardless of weight or age. The cause is usually genetically determined fat deposits that persist stubbornly even with an otherwise slim physique.

Targeted liposuction in the chin and neck area can help define the jawline, refine the facial profile, and create an overall fresher, clearer appearance – without looking artificial or “operated on”.

What can be achieved with chin liposuction:

  • Reduction of double chin and clearer chin line
  • Refinement of the transition between chin, neck, and jawline
  • Natural, fresh profile without scars
  • In combination with FaceTite®, additional visible skin tightening without surgical incision

After the procedure, a compression bandage is worn for the chin area, usually for 5-7 days. Swelling and bruising typically subside quickly. The final result is also visible here after about 6 to 12 months – with often significantly noticeable changes after just a few weeks.

Especially for the face, less is more – the goal is always a natural, harmonious result that suits you.
