Cosmetic surgery can come to the rescue – prices are not as daunting as they used to be when this profession was in its infancy, making such interventions now almost accessible and acceptable to everyone. For those looking for quick body shaping and fat removal, liposuction can be an ideal solution. Prices for this treatment range from €1000 to €3000, depending on the region where fat removal and body shaping are needed, while abdominal skin tightening costs between €3000 and €5000. Additionally, for a treatment like liposuction, prices may vary if modern and innovative methods and devices, such as BodyTite, are used, which our "Colić" clinic is the only one to possess in the country and the entire region! With the help of the BodyTite device, tightening the skin on the abdomen and other parts of the body, as well as fat removal, has never been easier and faster, with minimal and easy recovery!
Although we were more hesitant about procedures offered by cosmetic surgery in the past, lower prices due to increased competition and other factors, increased awareness of the possibilities of different treatments, a modern society focused on aesthetics "forcing" us to be beautiful and toned, and much more sophisticated methods for body shaping, as well as safer and less painful techniques for fat removal and skin tightening on the abdomen and other parts of the body, have contributed to an increasing number of people opting for a treatment like liposuction. Prices for such treatment also depend on the credibility of the clinic, as well as the experience, expertise, and professionalism of the doctor or team responsible for your body shaping.
What sets the BodyTite device apart from other liposuction methods is that it is Radio Frequency liposuction, simultaneously removing fat and tightening the skin on the abdomen or other selected areas, with a significantly shorter recovery period. Therefore, the skin does not hang as is the case with traditional liposuction, and it has undergone less trauma during the treatment, resulting in fewer bruises. Whether you opt for such treatment or traditional liposuction, one thing is certain – you will achieve body shaping more easily, even in the most critical areas!
What is liposuction or body sculpting, actually? Liposuction, or body sculpting, is one of the most popular methods or surgical techniques used to suction fat deposits from various parts of the body to achieve a more attractive body shape quickly. However, liposuction cannot correct excessive fat deposits or treat obesity; instead, this treatment can help correct problematic areas and parts of the body that are aesthetically undesirable. Therefore, the ideal candidate for liposuction is a person with stable body weight and mild imperfections in certain parts of the body, such as the stomach, upper arms, hips, thighs, buttocks, back, etc. Liposuction can be chosen at any stage of life, but the best results are achieved on sufficiently elastic skin because otherwise, after liposuction, skin tightening on the abdomen or other treated areas may be necessary.
So, classical liposuction is not the same as skin tightening because liposuction can only remove excess fat deposits! If the skin is inelastic, it will hang, and additional skin tightening on the abdomen or other treated areas is desirable for achieving the best body shaping results!
To perform liposuction, a small incision is made in the selected area, into which the surgeon inserts hollow tubes - cannulas. Through them, and with the help of a suction pump, undesirable fat cells are suctioned out. Cannulas come in various sizes and shapes to evenly remove fat from all layers, and this process can be facilitated by the prior injection of a physiological solution with adrenaline to prevent bleeding, and ultrasonic breaking of fat deposits can also be done beforehand. Liposuction can last from one to five hours, depending on the treated areas, and most liposuctions at the "Colić" clinic are performed under general anesthesia for maximum comfort and patient safety. As for recovery after liposuction, it usually takes 5 to 7 days, and after the intervention, it is advisable for patients to wear a compression garment or girdle for at least 3 weeks to remove excess skin.
When is abdominal skin tightening done? As we have already mentioned, abdominal skin tightening or abdominoplasty is a procedure that needs to be done if your skin is not elastic enough and hangs after liposuction or due to other circumstances such as rapid weight loss, childbirth, genetic factors, etc. Both women and men equally decide on this procedure, as the appearance of the stomach significantly affects self-confidence. When it comes to this type of cosmetic surgery, prices vary depending on the extent of the procedure needed.
Abdominal skin tightening is a procedure performed under general anesthesia and can last up to 4 hours, depending on how much tissue needs to be removed. The incision is made above the pubic area, so this scar remains hidden in the bikini zone. After this procedure, it is sometimes necessary to relocate the navel to a higher point, and often liposuction of the hips and thighs is performed during this procedure, as well as strengthening the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall. After this procedure, drains are often necessary and are removed after 2-3 days, while the stitches are gradually removed between the 10th and 14th day. It is also necessary to wear a firm elastic belt for at least a month after surgery, and refrain from heavy physical activities.
