Use of Corset After Liposuction Surgery
Due to reasons such as weight gain, pregnancy, old age and inability to maintain the ideal weight, stubborn fat may occur in certain parts of the body. A balanced diet and regular exercise may not be enough to remove these stubborn fats from the body. At this point, liposuction comes into play. Liposuction is actually a body shaping process that is one of the most preferred aesthetic applications of today. The fat that the person cannot get rid of is removed from the body, and in a way, the body lines are revealed again.
In the liposuction application, the fats are broken down and removed from the body in that way. Liposuction, which can be applied under general or local anesthesia, breaks up the fats under the skin with hollow knaules and then absorbs them and allows them to be thrown out. Most people think that liposuction is a method of losing weight and that they can lose their weight with this method without making any changes in their lifestyle. However, liposuction is definitely not a weight loss method. It is only used for the purpose of removing fat from the body and shaping the body, which is impossible to get rid of despite weight loss.
Should a corset be used after liposuction?
Liposuction is the process of vacuuming the fat from a closed area, no matter what technique is applied. Although some hypotheses have been put forward about whether to use a corset after liposuction, the use of a corset after liposuction limits the swelling of the region and gives comfort to the patient. Today, corsets are produced from materials that are very thin and perform their function without the need for tightening. The use of a corset is essential in order to recover in a shorter time after the application and to allow the body to collect less edema. The corset will be used more during the day, and the patient will be able to remove the corset at night if he wishes.
What is the Recovery Process After Liposuction?
It is possible to be discharged on the same day or the next day after liposuction. Depending on the technique applied, patients can return to their normal business life up to 2 weeks after liposuction. It is normal to have edema and a tingling sensation in the area where the procedure is performed. At the end of three weeks, the body finds its shape and the patient begins to get used to the new shape of his body.
