Liposuction Lausanne by Doctor Stéphane Smarrito 

A CUSTOMIZED STRATEGY ACCORDING TO YOUR LIPOSUCTION PROJECT

Do you want to refine your entire silhouette?

Classic liposuction performed under general anesthesia probably meets your project. Indeed, different zones allow you to refine your silhouette.

This is often a complete liposuction including the knees, inner thighs, saddlebags, stomach and waist. This multi-zone liposuction allows you to remove 1 to 3 liters. The operation generally lasts 1 hour, you can leave in the evening.

After a few weeks of bruising and swelling, the silhouette is modified and refined.

The result is often breathtaking after 3 months. Combined with low-sugar nutrition and fitness, this classic liposuction obtains demonstrative aesthetic results as well as regained clothing comfort.

You are overweight or even obese, is liposuction a good solution for you?

Strictly speaking, liposuction is not an operation for obesity. On the other hand, if the fat is not intra-abdominal or external, it can be of great help. It is then a defatting liposuction. In order to know if liposuction will be effective, it is necessary to pinch the skin fold.

The skin fold includes skin but also fat. In the case of thick skin folds, so-called defatting liposuction can reduce them.

Very often, diets and sports do not remove this stored fat. Thus, so-called defatting liposuction can have a starter effect allowing you to immediately lose volume, regain momentum, and motivate yourself to achieve an effective diet and get back in shape.

Sometimes after this operation, it is necessary to tighten the skin, for example by performing an abdominoplasty. Note that in the end this is not the rule, very often the skin retracts without forcing the patient to carry out skin surgery. 

This surgery performed by Doctor Stéphane Smarrito in Lausanne or Vevey also improves the dressed silhouette. It is part of a global coaching framework led by Doctor Smarrito associated with better self-esteem.

Do you want to sculpt your body and give it a more muscular appearance?

In this context, the high definition liposuction allows you to remove superficial fat which in your case is moderate.

The skin fold is therefore moderate and by following very selective paths and with the combination of different liposuction procedures, it is possible to bring out the muscular structures.

Thus the abdominals can be accentuated or reappear after this type of liposuction. This operation is aimed at both women and men with a variation on the designs depending on gender.

Very often, liposuction of sculpting male breasts is associated with adipomastia.

This technique, which takes longer than classic liposuction, requires specific equipment and a certain amount of experience. We can meet this demand with over 20 years of experience in cosmetic surgery.

Do you think you don't need liposuction but just a localized improvement?

In this case, if your skin is elastic and your fat is soft, cryolipolysis may meet your expectations.

La cryolipolysis is a non-surgical medical device that freezes fat cells. Thus, they have more difficulty renewing themselves by accumulating sessions you can obtain up to 20% reduction in fat mass.

This is not the technique preferred by surgeons since the surgery can reduce more than 90% of the fat mass. This may be a gentle method suitable for some people.

Note that there are big differences between cryolipolysis machines, some being less effective. First of all, this procedure still has a cost, it is necessary to make a diagnosis. Dr Smarrito has been performing all liposuctions for 20 years and provides you with 2 cryolipolysis machines.

He can provide you with full information and tell you whether this technique will be effective or not in your case.

 : . :You have a bulge below the navel without requiring real liposuction:

La cryoliposuction meets your expectations. This technique was invented by Dr. Smarrito. Thus, this surgery makes it possible to perform mini-liposuction using cold-assisted micro-cannulas.

In a 1^er time, the cold numbs the area, you will have no pain when suctioning the fat, then a gentle micro-suction is carried out to remove 200 to 300 cc of fat. This volume corresponds perfectly to a localized supra-umbilical excess.

This method can be aimed at a young or older person, athletic or non-athlete.

We have had extraordinary results for our customers. This technique was presented at the World Congress several years ago and was awarded the title of best presentation of the conference according to the audience.

In addition, she has been published in French and English journals with editorial boards.

In this sense, this technique is perfectly established even if you will not find it outside the RIVIERAclinic for intellectual property reasons.

We of course remain at your complete disposal to carry out the diagnosis which will guide the best choice in terms of liposuction.

Liposuction Glossary

• Fat tissue : Deposit of fatty substances existing in the cells of animal organisms, particularly of food origin.
• Adiposity : Imperfection due to excess fat.
• Orange peel : Skin dysmorphia typical of cellulite, characterized by small depressions and superficial irregularities in the skin.
• Cannula : Thin metal or rigid plastic tube, with a blunt end, used in cosmetic surgery to suck up (and therefore eliminate) excess fat in the subcutaneous tissue.
• Cellulite: Orange peel skin and nodules visible to the eye and/or to the touch. They result from the degeneration of subcutaneous adipose tissue, generally associated with an increase in fat cells and a breakdown in the walls of venous capillaries.
• Drainage: Technique consisting of keeping certain natural cavities or wounds open to encourage the flow of pus or other liquids. In cosmetic surgery, a flexible, transparent plastic tube is generally used, one end of which is placed in the wound and the other in a device in which a vacuum has been created (suction drainage).
• Lipectomy: Cosmetic surgery procedure aimed at surgically removing parts of fatty tissue.
• Liposuction: This is the cosmetic surgery procedure offered on this page aimed at slimming the body by suctioning excess fat from the legs, thighs, buttocks, arms, abdomen and there where unsightly fatty deposits persist. In women, the most frequently treated areas are the thighs, knees, hips and abdomen; in men, the hips, abdomen and breast area. In recent years, the indications have expanded and other areas can also be treated very extensively.
• Lipofilling: This is a cosmetic surgery procedure that uses the patient's own adipose tissue, duly purified, to reshape the buttocks with a lack of volume. No foreign substances are therefore inserted. The surgical procedure of lipofilling is a kind of intervention opposite and complementary to liposuction. With lipofilling, a portion of the fat cells, taken from an area of ​​the patient's own body, is re-implanted, by infiltration, in an area that needs to be filled. This involves removing fat from one body area of ​​a patient with immediate injection into another body area of ​​the same patient. The most common sites for these injections are the face (zygomatic region, nasolabial folds, deep wrinkles, etc.), areas of subcutaneous “depressions” resulting from trauma or previous liposuction.
• Liposculpture: This is a cosmetic surgery procedure aimed at removing and shaping the right amount of fat or fat cells, deep and on the surface in the subcutaneous tissue. To do this, cannulas of 3 to 4 millimeters in diameter and of different lengths are used, inserted into the subcutaneous tissue and connected to a suction motor via a rubber tube. Scraping and sucking the superficial fat under the skin tissue using the cannulas causes retraction of the skin, i.e. a lifting effect. The incisions allowing the cannulas to penetrate the tissue are only a few millimeters in diameter and are preferably placed in the skin folds; All areas of the body can be treated, although this technique is most often used for the thighs and hips, waist and abdomen.
• Microliposuction: Term designating a very limited liposuction operation, that is to say carried out on small areas. Microliposuction is an operation performed under local anesthesia, less traumatic than surgical liposuction and requiring neither hospitalization nor convalescence. This treatment does not replace traditional liposuction, as it is only performed on areas of limited size. Operationally, micro-liposuction consists of sucking the fat, after its liquefaction, using cannulated needles of increasingly smaller diameter. The surgical risk is very low and, from the point of view of the quality of the final result, can give better results than classic liposuction.
