Medical history of the patient and current usage of medications is discussed. It is advisable to stabilise the patient\u2019s weight before the surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">During the examination of the patient, deviations from the ideal contour, asymmetries, cellulite, skin quality and range of excessiveness are assessed. Patient will be photographed for the case history.

During the operation, first the patient\u2019s tissues are saturated with a special solution, containing a medication, which shrinks small blood vessels and relieves pain. Usually, liposuction is performed with 2-6 mm canulae connected to the vacuum device.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"en-GB\">Recovery<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"__mceDel1121\"><\/a><em><span lang=\"en-GB\">The patient is released either a few hours or on the morning after the surgery, depending on the volume of the surgery. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">Recovery is individual for every patient. Post-surgery pain relief is necessary on the first days, as there is swelling due to tissue trauma. The incisions have been covered with wound closure tape and bandages up to 2 weeks, after which scar care starts. It is necessary to wear compression garments on the area the procedure took place for 4-6 weeks. During the first weeks, avoiding extraneous exercise is advised. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"en-GB\">Possible risks<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"en-GB\">Immediately after the surgery swelling, discomfort, changes in the sensitivity of the nipple, and subdermal haematomas are possible. Often, there is asymmetry between sides or contour irregularities. Sometimes, there is inflammation, accumulation of<\/span><strong><span lang=\"en-GB\"> i<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"en-GB\">nterstitial fluid in the operated area, skin pigmentation and flaccidity.
