High-definition liposuction
What is it?
Liposuction removes localised fat deposits that resist exercise and diet. The high-definition technique refines contours and can be combined with radiofrequency to tighten the skin.
Who is it for?
It is intended for people close to their stable weight with localised deposits: abdomen, hips, thighs, knees, arms, neck.
How it is done
Consultation, marking, procedure through small incisions, usually as a day case.
Anaesthesia
General or local anaesthesia depending on the extent.
Recovery
A compression garment is worn for several weeks; temporary bruising and swelling.
The result
The result appears gradually and settles in three to six months. It is not a treatment for obesity.
Risks
Like any procedure, this one carries risks that are rare but real (infection, haematoma, healing problems, asymmetry, reaction to anaesthesia...). They are explained in detail during the consultation, with written information.
Frequently asked questions
Is it a way to lose weight?
No: it treats localised deposits, not overall excess weight.
How long between the consultation and the procedure?
For cosmetic surgery, French law requires a reflection period of at least 15 days after the detailed quote is given.
Where does the procedure take place?
The consultation takes place at the practice, 11 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, 75008 Paris. Surgical procedures are performed in an authorised facility.
I live abroad: how should I organise my trip?
Contact the practice by phone or e-mail. A first consultation in Paris is required; then plan for the 15-day reflection period and stay long enough after the procedure for the first follow-up visits.
