In three phases

How a liposuction works

The first step — booking an appointment online — is yours to take. From then on we take you by the hand and take care of everything else.

  1. Before the liposuction — time for a consultation
    Step 1

    Before the liposuction — time for a consultation

    A thorough consultation comes first with us. We take the time to understand your wishes, analyse the affected areas of your body together with you and brief you comprehensively on the treatment options, the risks and the healing process. You receive a cost plan and can arrange payment in instalments straightforwardly.

  2. During the liposuction — the procedure at the Kuzbari Centre
    Step 2

    During the liposuction — the procedure at the Kuzbari Centre

    On the day of the procedure you are received by our experienced ward team. The procedure takes place in one of our three state-of-the-art operating theatres. Dr Saalabian visits you before the start and marks the regions to be treated — that takes about 10 minutes, and during it you go through the process once more. Most patients find that reassuring.

  3. After the liposuction — we are here for you
    Step 3

    After the liposuction — we are here for you

    After the liposuction you recover briefly in the recovery room and go home the same day. The aftercare is a central element in securing the success in the long term. We arrange follow-up appointments, monitor the healing process and are there for you at any time. You also receive detailed care instructions.

Your result: contours that stay.

Once the swelling has gone down, your new silhouette shows — and we accompany you with follow-up appointments until the final result.

We are here for you

After the liposuction you recover briefly in the recovery room and go home the same day. The aftercare that follows is a central element in securing the success of the liposuction in the long term. At the Kuzbari Centre we place the greatest value on personal care during the recovery phase. We arrange follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process and are there for you at any time with questions or concerns.

Frequently asked questions about the process

Answers that create clarity.

How does a liposuction work?

After a thorough consultation the operation is carried out on an outpatient basis under twilight sedation or local anaesthetic. The fat is removed through fine cannulas, and afterwards you wear compression garments to support the healing.

How long does the procedure take?

The duration of the operation varies between 1 and 4 hours depending on the area of the body. Smaller procedures, such as liposuction at the chin, take less time, while larger areas require more.

Do I have to stay at the Kuzbari Centre after the operation?

No, liposuction with us is as a rule an outpatient procedure. After a short period of monitoring you can be accompanied home. With larger procedures we recommend planning one night of inpatient care with us.

When are the first results visible?

A change is already apparent immediately after the operation, but there is swelling as well. This goes down quickly, while the result takes shape.

What aftercare is required?

After the operation you wear compression garments for a while to support the healing. Gentle movement is beneficial, while sport and physical exertion should be avoided in the first few weeks. Most patients recover very quickly and without complications.

Checklist

How to recognise a professional consultation.

The first consultation is the most important phase of an aesthetic operation — more important than the procedure itself. These points should be fulfilled at the end of a good consultation, with us as with any other doctor:

  • Did the doctor take enough time during the first consultation?
  • Was I able to articulate my wishes and expectations precisely?
  • Were possible treatment alternatives explained?
  • Did the doctor understand and document my wishes?
  • Was I informed about the possibilities, limits and risks of the operation?
  • Was I told about the nature and duration of the healing process?
  • Do I know where I will be operated on and what quality standard the operating theatre meets?
  • Was I told whether the consulting doctor will also perform the operation personally?
  • Do I know which form of anaesthesia is planned and whether an anaesthetist will be present?
  • Was I informed how I will feel and look after the operation (swelling, bruising, scars)?
  • Do I know how long the social downtime will last?
  • Was a detailed, complete cost estimate drawn up?
  • Was I told to what extent aftercare will be provided?
