Every woman wants to have ideal forms, but few representatives of the fair sex can boast of such. Many people spend months on diets and spend hours on end in the gym, but do not get the desired results. They manage to lose excess weight, but they cannot give their body the desired shape. Modern plastic surgery solves this problem with the help of liposculpture. As is clear from the name of the technique, it allows you to model your figure using your own adipose tissue.
Principle of the method
Why is the figure of many women far from ideal? The reason for this is an excess of volume in some places and a lack of it in others. Even those ladies whose weight is ideal can face a similar problem. A typical situation is excess fat in the abdomen and thighs and lack of it in the upper body or lower limbs. This feature is associated with the work of female sex hormones, under the influence of which the stomach and buttocks get better first and lose weight last.
Liposculpture allows you to take adipose tissue cells from an excessively voluminous part of the body and transplant adipocytes into the area that needs to be enlarged. The procedure is carried out without surgical incisions, so the recovery period is easy and there are no scars left.
Features of the procedure
The method of pain relief is selected individually. If the volume of adipose tissue that is transferred from one place to another is small, local anesthesia can be used; for large volumes of intervention, intravenous anesthesia is used.
Adipose tissue is collected using a puncture method. A thin cannula is used to ensure minimal damage. Thanks to the use of special sampling technology, adipocytes are not destroyed or killed, which allows them to be transferred to another area of the body or face.
Adipose tissue has a rather dense structure; in order to carry out unimpeded sampling of the material, it is necessary to first destroy the subcutaneous fatty tissue. This is done using ultrasound, laser, drug injections, and electric current. The above factors contribute to the transformation of adipose tissue into an emulsion, which allows it to be removed through a small puncture and introduced into the desired area.
If it is necessary to transfer large volumes of adipose tissue from one place to another, the procedure is performed in several stages. After examining and talking with the patient, the plastic surgeon develops an optimal correction plan.
Due to the fact that one’s own adipose tissue is used to increase volumes, the process of rejection does not occur, since foreign material is not introduced into the body.

ESSENCE OF THE METHOD
Lipomodeling is a procedure during which a plastic surgeon removes excess fat tissue from one area of the body and transfers it to areas that need volumetric enhancement or correction.
Lipomodeling consists of two stages:
- Liposuction – removal of adipose tissue and its preliminary preparation
- Lipofilling – injection of purified adipose tissue into the desired parts of the body or face
The main goal of the surgery is to create a balance to create a beautiful contour instead of removing as much fat as possible. The combination of procedures such as liposuction, abdominoplasty and lipofilling gives a result that makes a woman visually athletic and fit. Lipomodeling allows you not only to correct your figure, but also to emphasize your muscles. The appearance of noticeable muscles is an added bonus from the surgery.
Benefits of lipomodelling:
- There is no tissue rejection as the fat is taken from the patient's body
- Long-term results. Depending on lifestyle, the effect lasts for 7-10 years or forever.
- Fat that is extracted from the body no longer appears at donor sites
- Suitable for almost all parts of the body, including: thighs, buttocks, arms, abdomen, etc.
- The relief and aesthetics of the figure are emphasized
- Reducing the risk of an allergic reaction to a minimum
- No incisions, scars or other traces of surgery
ZONE MODELING
At the WMT clinic, plastic surgeons perform lipomodeling of all the most popular areas of the body and face. A modern set of equipment and practical experience of more than 15,000 operations allow us to perform operations of any degree of complexity:
Lipomodeling of the abdomen, sides and thighs
For most women, fat deposits accumulate in three key areas: the stomach, sides and thighs. Lipomodeling makes it possible to immediately remove excess fat from problem areas and use it to increase volume in other places. For example, to improve the condition of the skin on the cheeks, enlarge thin lips or add volume to the breasts. Since most of the fat deposits accumulate on the abdomen, the plastic surgeon most often uses material from this area, thereby emphasizing the anatomical beauty of the waist.
Breast lipomodeling
Correction of the breast area is suitable for girls who do not want to get implants, who want to create an individual breast shape or create complete symmetry of the mammary glands. The doctor usually takes fat cells for this procedure from the buttocks or abdominal area, depending on the amount of fat present. As a result, a woman receives a natural shape of the mammary glands, which lasts for several years.
Facial lipomodeling
Facial lipomodeling is a worthy alternative to numerous cosmetic rejuvenation procedures. Expressive cheekbones, reduction of nasolabial folds, chin correction, giving lips the desired shape and smoothing out wrinkles - lipomodeling can improve any area with complete safety for the patient. The procedure takes only 1-2 hours, and the result of lipomodeling, unlike the use of fillers, lasts for years.
Lipomodeling of the buttocks
Even intense workouts are sometimes unable to create volume in the buttocks. With age, the tone decreases even more, and the skin sags. Lipomodeling allows you to achieve the desired shape in a short time. The doctor removes excess fat from other parts of the body, most often the inner thighs or abdomen, and injects the material into the buttocks. Thanks to the redistribution of the patient's own fat, a double result is obtained: improving the contours of the donor area and giving the desired volume to the buttocks.
Back lipomodeling
Correcting the back area helps not only smooth out visual imperfections, but also improve health indicators. Excess fat deposits in the upper and lower back lead to curvature of posture and changes in the usual gait. When putting stress on the back, vital nerve endings are pinched, which limit normal blood circulation. Lipomodeling allows you to remove excess deposits in the back area. After the operation, folds at the level of the shoulder blades disappear, deposits in the lumbar region are reduced, the waist acquires a clear contour, and overall health improves.

Indications
The procedure can be performed for both medical and purely aesthetic reasons. If a patient has deformation of the subcutaneous fat layer due to injury or surgery, liposculpture will help eliminate this problem. Thanks to the redistribution of fat, the surface of the problem area is leveled.
In most cases, manipulation is performed on patients who are dissatisfied with their figure. Excessive fat on the sides, abdomen, and thighs makes it possible to take material to correct other areas. Using your own adipose tissue, breasts are often enlarged, the X-shaped shape of the lower extremities is corrected, and the contours of the face and lower legs are modeled. Some patients' body parts are characterized by asymmetry visible to the naked eye. This creates a pronounced cosmetic defect and limits a person’s choice of clothing. Using your own fat cells, you can optimize the ratio of volumes of different anatomical zones.
Advantages
Liposculpture has many benefits. The capabilities of this technique are impressive. There are many examples in which patients with an ugly, shapeless figure after the procedure became attractive and began to inspire admiration among members of the opposite sex.
The technique is minimally invasive and safe. To successfully correct your figure, only a few punctures are needed. Thanks to this, the postoperative period in the vast majority of cases goes smoothly, and rehabilitation does not last long.
Your own fat tissue is used to sculpt your figure. This avoids hypersensitivity and rejection reactions. The technique can be used in patients who are allergic to implants.
The technique is universal; it allows you to model any area of the human body, including the face, neck and chin.
After the procedure, you can get an excellent cosmetic effect. Moreover, the areas of the body that have been corrected look natural, since only adipose tissue was used to change their shape.
The procedure produces a rejuvenating effect, tissues after lipomodeling become more elastic and firm. After applying the technique, it is possible to obtain a positive result that lasts for a long time.
How long does the result last after liposculpture?
A.A.: In my practice, there are patients where the results after liposculpture lasted for more than 4 years. But I also have patients who have gained significant weight and this also affects the result. Naturally, there is a slight weight gain, but if, for example, it is 20 kilograms, then there will be no result after the procedure.

Recommendations before body shape lipomodeling
A.A.: My recommendation for patients is, first of all, to exercise before resorting to liposculpture. So, first you need to put in some effort and then come to liposculpture.
Before you come to the surgeon for body sculpting surgery, it is imperative that you fulfill your obligations and do physical exercises to prepare your muscles.
I don't like it when a patient comes in and says they don't want to exercise or do anything or work on their body, but they want to have a beautiful, sculpted body. In this case, I release the patient. But within a few months, the patient understands that it is necessary to make an effort and we get a good result. Because a good result affects both the doctor and the patient.
I always give patients the opportunity to study independently for 6 months. The first step in body shape correction for patients is BMI (body mass index). We cannot work if the BMI is greater than 32; the most optimal index for most patients is 30. This is one of the key factors in choosing a patient for the liposculpture procedure. The next stage is a training and exercise program that must be completed for 6 months. This is not about changing the body, but about the fact that patients will be able to come for surgery later.
Possibility of using lipomodeling and bariatric surgery methods to correct body shape
A.A.: Many people think that these are different directions. First and foremost, weight loss is about what's best for your skin. In the case of surgical body modeling, there is always the problem of excess skin; if you play sports, the condition of your skin definitely improves. We may later perform a liposculpture procedure on a patient who has lost weight, removing fat tissue that does not reflect the muscular structure of the body shape.
At the same time, we need to remember about excess skin, and here we can turn to hardware techniques that are aimed at improving skin tone, and there are also many procedures that work with excess skin in different areas.
This is necessary for the result to be as natural as possible. It's truly a lifestyle change. Because patients who used bariatric surgery techniques for weight loss did so to look beautiful in the mirror, on the beach. And their thinking also changes after that. Therefore, both liposculpture and bariatric weight loss methods mean a lot to patients.

Flaws
Despite the perfection of the technique, not all fat cells take root in a new location. If the percentage of dead adipocytes is high, correction is required.
In some patients, the modeled area may be asymmetrical, with depressions and bumps. The material is quite labile, so in some cases it is difficult to predict how it will distribute in the zone into which it was introduced.
Some patients complain of the appearance of skin pigmentation in the area, which has increased due to the injection of adipose tissue.
Indications and contraindications for the procedure
Indications:
- Fat deposits in the abdominal area
- Fat deposits in the inner thighs
- Fat deposits in the buttocks area
- Fat deposits in the arms
- Fat deposits in the back area
- Fat deposits in the submandibular area
Contraindications:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Diabetes
- Diseases of the circulatory system
Features of the recovery period
The rehabilitation period proceeds with a minimum amount of discomfort. In order to avoid complications and to be pleasantly pleased with the result, you must follow the doctor’s recommendations.
For the first 2-3 months after lipomodelling, it is not recommended to go to the sauna, take a hot bath, massage, or sunbathe. Also at this time, physical overexertion should be avoided, and it is recommended to limit sexual activity. Alcohol and cigarettes should be avoided during the postoperative period.
A diet after liposculpture is necessary to ensure that excess fat deposits do not reappear. But you shouldn’t severely limit yourself in food in the first 3 months after correction. This period must be maintained in order for the adipose tissue to completely take root in the new location.
Compression garments help reduce swelling in the correction areas and also prevent unwanted movement of the injected fatty tissue. At first, you should not lie down on the area that has been modeled.
If the correction was carried out in the facial area, it is prohibited to use decorative cosmetics for the first week after the procedure.
An integrated approach to body shape modeling
A.A.: I always talk about what is called removal. Since removing fatty tissue is not the most important thing. A lipoplasty surgeon is similar to a sculptor, but the sculptor uses clay in his work. As a rule, the patient, using lipoplasty techniques, wants to remove excess fat tissue.
But it is important to remember that by adding fat tissue to various muscle groups, we can achieve a greater visual effect of body sculpting or contouring, which will look more attractive to the patient. So we are talking not only about the removal of adipose tissue, but about an integrated approach to modeling the body shape.
Combination of lifting using threads and liposculpture
A.A.: Today, lifting using threads is a procedure that any doctor can include in his practice in order to make the result even more phenomenal. Combining threads with botulinum toxin can provide high-quality skin rejuvenation and make the skin look fresher, if you want to perform only one procedure, combining these techniques. The combination of threads and dermal fillers is what is most used now for facial correction.
Facial sculpting and lifting using threads to correct excess skin is of great importance. Lipoplastic surgery also requires skin lifting; as a plastic surgeon, I recommend facial skin lifting, including the use of threads, as this is a minimally invasive lifting method. This allows you to significantly increase the efficiency of the procedure and maximize patient satisfaction.

Is liposculpture worth it?
Today, liposculpture is one of the fastest, safest and most effective ways to change your figure, get rid of excess volume and fill in the missing ones. If you follow the recommendations of the plastic surgeon, the result will last for many years. The price of the procedure depends on the volume of fat tissue moved and the area being corrected. If you want to look perfect, and your health allows you to carry out this procedure, why not use this unique technique!
