Are you constantly pulling back the skin on your face while looking in the mirror? And you wish your skin would stay lifted. How about loose skin on your upper arms? Do bingo wings bother you? Well, you are not alone. Many people start noticing changes in their skin as they get mature. And even though surgical lifts, like facelift or arm lift would bring you significant results, perhaps you are not ready for those options of skin lifting. Or you just don’t want to spend time on recovery after surgical treatment.
Luckily developments in the technology of non-invasive skin tightening and skin lifting treatments have come to the rescue. You can now choose between different non-surgical treatments that effectively and naturally tighten and lift your skin without downtime or significant side effects. And you can have these treatments on almost any area of the body.
So, if you are looking for the best non-invasive, skin tightening and lifting treatments, consider 3 treatments that instantly pop up on beauty radar – Sofwave, Thermage and Ultherapy.
Let’s discover the differences and similarities between these 3 treatments so that you can choose the one that will be most effective for your skin concerns.
What does each treatment do to lift and tighten your skin?
Sofwave lifts and tightens your skin by reaching your underlying skin tissue at 1.5mm.
Let’s start with the superstar – Sofwave. It’s the latest, clinically-proven skin-tightening treatment that brings brilliant results.
Sofwave is a great, revolutionary, non-invasive treatment that improves your skin by heating it at only 1.5mm. Its ultrasound energy stimulates your skin healing processes and jump-starts the production of new collagen.
Pretty soon, newly built collagen makes a framework that keeps your skin cells firmly connected and thus keeps your skin elastic, plumper and hydrated. Sofwave creates a massive fibroblast of the cells which in turn fill in wrinkles and fine lines, lift the skin on your eyebrows and submental area and generally bring you an ultimate rejuvenation. Sofvawe helps you to leave wrinkles and saggy skin in the past. Thermage smooths, lifts and contours your skin, targeting more superficial layers.
Its technology is based on RF energy that tightens your skin. Thermage gives you beautiful results that refresh your skin and make it tighter and more lifted. The RF energy heats the layers of your skin that are full of collagen – the heat awakens the existing collagen and triggers the production of the new and healthy one.
The process of collagen rebuilding is what makes Thermage a revolutionary procedure in terms of lifting saggy skin all over your body and reducing the visibility of wrinkles and crepey skin. A big plus for Thermage – it tightens your skin but also reduces cellulite dimples.
Ultherapy firms and lifts your skin from the deeper layers.
This skin tightening and lifting treatment is super advanced. It works deep inside your skin layers with ultrasound energy. If you want a non-surgical facelift, Ultherapy is your thing – it can even reach the same depths as a plastic surgeon would reach to lift your skin. But here there are no cuts, scars or long recovery – you don’t even experience significant side effects.
Ultherapy heats your deep skin tissue and triggers the existing collagen. The collagen starts to build up and very soon your skin is tighter and better toned. The collagen keeps your skin youthful and refreshed. The best part – you achieve these results naturally, as your own skin gradually improves itself. Natural-looking results are the most beautiful and Ultherapy works to enhance your natural beauty.
What areas can each treatment lift and tighten?
Sofwave works great in lifting and tightening the skin on your face and neck.
Next to reducing wrinkles and fine lines, Sofwave is a brilliant solution for firming and lifting saggy skin on your brows, jaws, chin, neck and decolletage. You get a bonus here – if you are bothered by sun damage on your skin, Sofwave can help you in that department too. It brightens these skin blemishes and makes your skin flawless.
In the case of mild cellulite issues, this advanced treatment can even help you reduce it. Who said versatility doesn’t work? Sofwave has it all covered.
Thermage is the record-breaker here – it tightens and lifts almost all body areas.
This advanced treatment has different applicators that can address even the most delicate areas.
With Thermage for the eyes, you can rejuvenate and lift your eyelids, reduce the hooding, and eliminate dark circles and undereye bags. You can even reduce wrinkles and fine lines around your eyes. This treatment is one of the most effective non-surgical skin tightening procedures – it smooths and firms the skin around your eyes. Your eyes look more alert and you can say goodbye to looking tired or older than you actually are. The skin around your eyes is better structured and that’s what makes your entire face looks youthful and fresh.
With Thermage for the face, you can address all skin concerns on your face – saggy upper face, loose jawline, mildly loose skin on your neck and decolletage. You can even reduce the infamous turkey neck and make your submental area nice and firm. This treatment lifts the saggy skin on these facial areas and makes you look younger and rejuvenated. All thanks to collagen abundance that actually fixes all your facial skin concerns. We got to keep that collagen strong – Thermage is a great ally in that.
Finally, Thermage for the body focuses on other areas of your body like your abdomen, hands, arms, knees, buttoks and thighs. Forget about bingo wings on your arms – with this treatment your skin will be lifted and firmer. Thermage for the body is a great treatment for cellulite dimples and for lifting saggy fat pockets. So this is a big plus for this treatment when it comes to body contouring.
Ultherapy brilliantly lifts and tightens your skin all across your face.
But it’s also super effective for your submental area and can lift and tighten your neck, decolletage and the area under your chin. It is best for lifting the skin in your brow line, and cheeks and the area around your mouth. It is a brilliant skin-tightening treatment because it can significantly reduce deeper wrinkles and lift moderately saggy skin.
What singles Ultherapy out is that it can go so deep underneath your skin and give you an almost similar skin-lifting effect to a surgical facelift.
The best part – the results are natural-looking. The treatment regenerates the collagen and your skin gradually becomes lifted and firmer. Your skin actually heals on its own. You are left with a nicely contoured face without surgery, cuts or recovery.
How often do you need to have each treatment?
For Sofwave to work, all you need is 1 treatment session.
And you can really squeeze it during your lunch break – it’s super quick. The session lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, all depending on whether you are having it done on your face, the neck or both. What makes it so fast is a larger applicator that can cover larger areas. But it’s still absolutely safe and effective even though it’s faster than other skin tightening and lifting treatments.
There is no downtime or significant side effects – after the treatment, you can carry on with your daily activities. Awesome right?
Thermage usually needs only 1 session, after which you are free to continue with your day.
This is because there isn’t significant downtime. Thermage is gentle but very powerful because usually you need just 1 session to see the improvements and to kick-start that collagen rebuild.
The session lasts between 30 and 90 minutes – it all depends on your targeted area.
Ultherapy also needs 1 session to bring you great results.
The session lasts between 60 to 90 minutes when done on the face and 30 minutes if you’re just improving your decolletage. After this single session, you will see significant skin tightening and lifting effects.
How fast can you see the results after each treatment?
What’s great about Sofwave is that improves your skin immediately.
Your skin feels tighter and smoother and looks better toned. But the improvement doesn’t end here – in the next 12 weeks, your skin gets better and better. The collagen is building up and working hard in reducing your wrinkles and lifting your skin even more.
Once the process of collagen regeneration is finished you can enjoy the effects of Sofwave for more than a year. Then you can get a touch-up treatment, just to maintain the youthful look of your skin.
Thermage gives you instant results which improve over the period of 6 months.
And you can enjoy the effects of Thermage for 1 to 2 years which is pretty awesome. Then you can choose to have a touch-up treatment to keep your skin nicely tight and lifted.
Ultherapy immediately improves your skin but you can see the best results after 2 to 3 months.
And you will enjoy the effects of Ultherapy for more than a year. Then if you wish, you can have an additional touch-up treatment to revitalize your skin even further.
Which best skin-tightening treatment to choose?
So, let’s say that all treatments significantly improve your skin in terms of lifting saggy skin and skin tissue and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. They are all safe and FDA-approved which plays a huge role when choosing the best skin-lightening treatment. And they will all make you look younger without surgery, cuts and recovery.
But, if we are taking all the details into account, Sofwave is great for you because it’s safe for all skin tones and types. That’s one of the reasons everybody wants Sofwave. Also, the treatment is really fast so if you don’t have a lot of time to spare, Sofwave is your thing. When it comes to the benefits that Sofwave brings to your skin, they are best seen in reducing the wrinkles like crow’s feet, frown lines and lines around your lips and on your cheeks. After Sofwave, your skin will bounce back to its youthful look.
Thermage is the best skin-tightening treatment for you if you want to improve your skin quality and lift saggy skin. It is also effective if you want to eliminate unsightly cellulite dimples or address saggy fat deposits. So, Thermage will do wonders in contouring both your face and body.
Ultherapy, on the other hand, will trigger collagen production in much deeper layers of your skin. It significantly lifts your brows and jowls – the key features that keep your facial skin nice and firm.

EQUESTRIAN SPORT AND LUXURIOUS AESTHETIC TREATMENTS – THE PERFECT COMBO
We don’t need to mention again that polo is one of the oldest equestrian sports. Being the oldest makes it also one of the most luxurious and sophisticated. Polo players spend a lot of time in the sun and proper skincare for their faces is more than necessary. They look after their skin concerns with special aesthetic treatments that keep their skin moisturized, soft and fresh. But what’s most important, these treatments don’t have to be invasive or aggressive to the skin. They can be non-invasive, gentle and safe but ultimately effective in keeping the skin youthful and radiant. This is Lucia Clinic’s most important mission – customizing treatments that will bring real and natural-looking results.

I am going to tell you how liposuction ceased to be a hush-hush topic in Hollywood and all over the world. Read the chapters to find out some useful facts about liposuction and to stop considering liposuction as a taboo.

So, let’s start answering the following questions:
1. What can I find out from celebrities and their liposuction experience?
2. What is liposuction surgery?
3. What does liposuction do to your body?
4. What clothes should I wear after liposuction?

18. When can I fly after liposuction?
Liposuction is a transformative option for contouring and achieving your desired body shape.
1. WHAT CAN I FIND OUT FROM CELEBRITIES AND THEIR LIPOSUCTION STORY?
What’s awesome is that the shyness about revealing who had liposuction is finally over. Many celebrities openly share their experiences, before and after photos and other news about their liposuctions.
If we can say that celebrities are the ones who affect cultural changes, it’s a good thing that our society is finally becoming more open up to cosmetic treatments and plastic surgeries such as liposuction.
Let’s be honest – we all love reading about celebrities and their lives – nip-and-tuck cosmetic surgeries included. When they openly talk about it, liposuction becomes a real conversation – it’s like we are actually talking to them about their experience with liposuction and how it may have changed their lives.
So, after reading a post that Susan Sarandon had lipo, you immediately realize that liposuction has become demystified. And you start thinking – why don’t I have liposuction also and change my life for the better? And by this I mean, get the best version of myself.
WHAT HAPPENS IF WE DON’T TALK ABOUT LIPOSUCTION?
Well if you don’t hear any real stories about this plastic surgery, you may get a bit frightened and develop misconceptions about it. If you compare yourself to your celebrity idols, you might feel insecure because they look peach-perfect. In reality, celebrities weren’t born that way.
So, once you understand that, by listening to their stories about aesthetic treatments and plastic surgeries like liposuction, you start realizing that you can either accept the way you look or choose to have liposuction to tweak the body areas that bother you. Either way, you will feel less nervous and perhaps choose to have liposuction much easier than before.
WHO ARE THE CELEBRITIES THAT SHARED THEIR LIPOSUCTION EXPERIENCE?
Let’s talk now about these public figures who didn’t hold back when talking about their liposuction procedures. As I said already, their stories have really taken the veil of liposuction in Hollywood and the rest of the world.
So, they can also help you realize that if you get liposuction you won’t be ‘shunned’ by the rest of society and that it can really be your life-changing experience.
Crissy Teigen is a beautiful supermodel that had trouble with fat pockets in her armpits – nothing that a little liposuction couldn’t solve for her.
So, if you have bra bulges, liposuction can help you remove them forever.
Clay Aiken had chin liposuction to make his jaw more pronounced. So as you can see, liposuction is not just for ladies. It is a great fat-removal method for men who want to make their bodies more masculine and defined. So, men, don’t shy away from liposuction – become a better version of yourselves with little body tweaks.
Okay, all these mentioned public figures are A-listers, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t get liposuction yourself. If the cost is what bothers you, there are so many payment options today that you will certainly find one that fits your budget. All you have to do is discuss your payment with the plastic surgeon, and meet somewhere in the middle. It will be worth it.
HOW CAN CELEBRITIES EDUCATE THEIR FANS ABOUT LIPOSUCTION?
Simply by being open about it – which the mentioned public figures actually did. For instance, you can learn from your fans that liposuction is life-changing, but requires careful and devoted recovery.
Following your surgeon’s recommendations is crucial for the best results – the results that you will actually be satisfied with.
And you realize that all your fans who had liposuction actually took their recovery very seriously – and got the results that made them look as they wanted.
You may see the celebrity that you really love and follow on social networks and think – Okay she or he got liposuction and it was easy for her or him. But actually, it isn’t that easy because there isn’t a magic wand that speeds up their recovery – only devoted and careful aftercare.
So, celebrities can tell you real stories about their liposuction and inform you about their recovery period. This really means a lot to you – by following the recovery advice you will love your results as your celebrity does.
Another thing that you can find out from celebrities and their liposuction stories is that it is very important to go to a board-certified surgeon. This is the most important decision in your journey towards improvement with liposuction.
Find a surgeon who is experienced, artistic and trustworthy, and it will be a great journey.
Together you can decide which liposuction technique is best for your body concerns, how to accomplish your aesthetic goals and how to get real and beautiful results.
Now that we established that celebrities aren’t shy about their liposuctions and openly talk about it, let’s answer the questions they all had in their minds before liposuction and that you also surely might have.
2. WHAT IS LIPOSUCTION SURGERY?
Okay, imagine the scenario – you sweat in the gym all the time like crazy, but still those love handles or saddlebags keep staying stuck on your body. You think – forget about tight-fitting clothes. I just can’t wear them. And that’s the moment when liposuction can really help you. If you have googled it, then you are probably already familiar with the term liposuction, but let’s cover it again –
Liposuction is plastic surgery that eliminates or sucks out unwanted fat pockets from the body.
If you reached that point in your life when you realize that exercising and diet aren’t enough to give you that desired look, then liposuction is your answer. This plastic surgery enables you to achieve a smoother body shape. It can be done on almost all body areas, even on hard-to-reach ones, all thanks to science and the development of different less invasive liposuction techniques.
We can easily say that liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries today, but it’s also quite misunderstood. Its main goal is to contour your body by getting rid of isolated areas of accumulated fat cells.
So, even though the majority of people think that liposuction is a weight loss treatment that will significantly lower the number on the scale, it actually isn’t.
You need to be close to your ideal weight and have fat pockets that are too stubborn to get lost in a traditional way, to be a good candidate for liposuction.
And after the surgery, you lose more weight by adopting a healthy lifestyle. So liposuction is a motivation or a trigger that helps you really take good care of yourself and maintain the awesome results you get with this plastic surgery.
You might have also heard that liposuction is referred to as a body contouring procedure. You can have it done under the chin, upper arms, breasts, buttocks, thighs, abdomen, calves and even on your face.
Bottom line is that –
Liposuction is great for body contouring, fat elimination and combination with other procedures.
To perform liposuction, your plastic surgeon uses special surgical tools, called cannulas. So, let’s just quickly explain –
WHAT ARE CANNULAS?
Cannulas are little instruments that your surgeon uses to remove fat and contour your targeted body area.
They come with different tips and sizes, all depending on which area you want to address. For example, if you are getting liposuction on your neck, your plastic surgeon uses a cannula that has a tip like a spatula – it nicely and precisely scoops up the accumulated fat in a horizontal way.
For breaking up the fat, your surgeon uses a slightly larger sized cannula that has a basket tip and for removing that fat he uses a straight-tipped cannula that is smaller and very delicate. They are designed in low profile because the surgeon is going for the fat and not your skin, nerves and other surrounding tissue.
Cannulas are of course blunt-tipped and not sharp because using sharp-tipped cannulas would simply be ridiculous and very dangerous.
REMEMBER: it’s very important to go to a plastic surgeon who knows his/her way around cannulas and never uses larger cannulas than 5 millimeters.
No matter how much fat the surgeon needs to eliminate, he/she needs to do it carefully, patiently and safely. That’s the only way the surgeon will avoid causing serious injuries to your body.
That liposuction in a nutshell – it helps you feel more confident and more attractive because it contours your body and brings you real and beautiful results.
3. WHAT DOES LIPOSUCTION DO TO YOUR BODY?
As mentioned above, liposuction can really be a life-changing experience, not only because it improves your body contours by getting rid of fat, but also because it motivates you to adopt healthy lifestyle habits. And since it is a body contouring surgery, it changes your body in many ways.
Let’s discuss how.
You already know that fat cells accumulate or grow in volume and size when you put on extra weight. However, with liposuction, you get rid of those undesirable fat cells in the body area that bothers you the most.
The amount of fat that the surgeon will remove depends on that specific area, how that area looks and how much fat it has accumulated. So, that area changes once the surgeon removes the fat – it becomes slimmer, tighter or nicely shaped. These results are permanent which is a huge plus for liposuction – but you need to keep a steady weight.
WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR SKIN AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
Once you are done with liposuction, the skin on the treated area kinda molds itself to the new contours. Your skin shrinks in some parts to fit the volume of fat that is left in the treated area. So it’s awesome if your skin generally has good elasticity and tone because after liposuction it will easily adapt to your new contours and look smooth and tight.
On the other hand, if your skin has lost its elasticity or it’s thin, then it might look a bit loose after liposuction. You can easily solve this with skin tightening treatments that trigger the collagen production and help your skin become firm again.
WHY IS CONSULTATION WITH THE SURGEON IMPORTANT IN THIS CASE?
Because, during consultations, your plastic surgeon will carefully examine your skin in terms of elasticity and quality, especially in the area where you want your liposuction to be performed. Based on this evaluation, your surgeon will inform you how liposuction will affect your skin and if you will need additional skin tightening treatments.
One important thing that your plastic surgeon will tell you at consultation is that gaining weight after liposuction is a big no.
Since liposuction changes your body, it affects the way your body stores and distributes the fat you gained.
Although eliminated fat cells can’t regenerate or move to different body areas, newly gained fat cells will find their place to store themselves. So, the bottom line is that if you gain weight some of your untreated body areas will get larger than before and you won’t definitely like the way you look.
However, as we said, once you get liposuction and see your beautifully contoured body, you will be more than motivated to keep those results and actually enjoy this life-changing experience forever.
4. WHAT CLOTHES SHOULD I WEAR AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
After your liposuction surgery, you need to take some time off to recover. To save time, it’s a good idea to prepare everything you need before your surgery – clothes included.
Right after the surgery, you will have mild to moderate swelling in your treated area so you don’t want to wear tight clothes and make the swelling even worse. So, stack up loose shirts, pajamas, bathrobes and sweatpants for the first couple of days after liposuction.
While you are healing you need to feel comfortable so wearing loungewear will add up to your comfort a lot. And put all these clothes in one place that is easy to access – this will make your life easier in the first couple of days.
And once you feel better and fit enough to go back to work and other activities, you will wonder if you can wear tight clothes again like jeans or slim-fit shirts. It’s totally understandable that you want to show your newly shaped contours but be patient. Wait for 6 to 8 weeks before you start wearing those body-flattering clothes.
It’s more important to wear compression garments after liposuction, so read about it in the next chapter.
5. HOW LONG DO I NEED TO WEAR A COMPRESSION GARMENT AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
Compression garments are super important for your recovery after liposuction. They help you avoid complications and get those great results you are expecting. So don’t disregard the amount of time you need to wear a compression garment and you will be happy with the results.
Let’s discuss why.
The amount of time you need to wear a compression garment depends on the treated area and how extensive your liposuction was.
Your plastic surgeon will advise you on this, but generally, if you had tumescent lipo under local anesthesia, you can wear a compression garment for just a couple of days.
If you had more extensive liposuction under general anesthesia, then you need to wear a compression garment for 3 to 6 weeks. This means 24h every day, except when showering. After 6 weeks, you can wear it only while sleeping. And your surgeon can change the pressure of your garment at that time.
REMEMBER: Stay in close contact with your plastic surgeon while you’re wearing your garment because you need to report any unexpected pain issues or discomfort.
The pressure of your compression garment should be somewhere in the middle – not too snug and not too loose.
Your plastic surgeon will adjust your garment then according to your comfort – you need to be as comfortable as possible while healing. Only then you can look forward to awesome results.
WHY ARE COMPRESSION GARMENTS GREAT FOR RECOVERY?
Simply because they speed up your recovery – you don’t want to lose unnecessary time and get fit as soon as possible.
● They reduce swelling by preventing too much unnecessary fluid from accumulating.
● They help you with body contouring because your body easily gets used to the newly shaped contours. That’s why your final results will be awesome – smooth and tight skin and reduced risk of saggy and wrinkled skin. That’s a big plus, right?
● Garments also help reduce bruising because they press the blood vessels in the treated area and keep excess blood away from the surface of your skin where the bruises are most visible.
Consult with your plastic surgeon about the best compression garment for your recovery, wear it as advised and get the best results.
WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DON’T WEAR YOUR COMPRESSION GARMENT AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
Only things you don’t want to experience during your recovery.
The worst thing – a longer recovery. And as we said, you want to recover as quickly as possible. Other nasty side effects that happen if you neglect your compression garment are unnecessary pain, excessive bruising and swelling, infection and others.
Also, if you don’t wear your compression garment, you may end up being unsatisfied with the results – ridges, wrinkles and contour irregularities are definitely the results you don’t want to happen.
So, be patient and wear your compression garment as instructed. It will definitely pay off.
6. WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF LIPOSUCTION?
This is a great question and the answer is even better. Since the science behind liposuction techniques has greatly developed, you can now choose different liposuction methods according to your aesthetic needs.
Let’s talk about this in more detail.
First of all, to find out which liposuction technique is the best for you, you need to have a consultation with your plastic surgeon.
It’s not the same if you want a full-body lipo or just a small localized area lipo.
Regarding this, there is Tumescent or wet liposuction, which is the most common kind and usually the base of all liposuction. It involves the injection of solution made of local anesthetic, like lidocaine, vasoconstrictor like epinephrine and saline solution. Obviously, lidocaine prevents you from feeling any pain by numbing the area and epinephrine constricts blood circulation in the treated area and prevents excessive bleeding.
This solution is injected into the targeted area before liposuction begins – in some cases up to 3 times more than the amount of fat that needs to be suctioned out. What’s revolutionary about this liposuction is that it’s done under local anesthesia which greatly reduces recovery. And of course, it brings you awesome results.
Ultrasound-assisted liposuction is also an advanced technique. The surgeon uses ultrasonic vibrations to liquefy the fat and before it can be suctioned out. The surgeon uses a small cannula that emits these vibrations from its tip.
This type of liposuction is great for breaking down and removing thick or fibrous areas like the upper back. This liposuction needs to be done with great precision to avoid burns from ultrasound.
So, go to a board-certified plastic surgeon who has a lot of experience in performing it. You want the best results from your liposuction but you also want to stay safe.
Laser-assisted liposuction also needs to be performed with super precision. The surgeon uses laser energy to break down the fat before it is suctioned out.
This technique is great for delicate areas because it needs to be done with smaller cannulas. So, you can treat the chin, neck or face with this type of lipo.
There is a great benefit of this lipo technique – it tightens your skin by triggering collagen production. So you don’t have to worry about saggy skin after liposuction. It will be firm and nicely contoured at the same time.
There you have it. Once there was just traditional liposuction but today you can choose a more advanced technique to achieve your aesthetic goals.
7. WHICH LIPOSUCTION GIVES THE BEST RESULTS?
Now, this is a tricky question, because there are different types of liposuction that are used in different cases. The choice of liposuction technique that will bring you the best results depends on your aesthetic goals and the experience of your plastic surgeon (this should maybe go in the first place).
You see, the first thing you need to know is that there are different types of fat that vary according to the body area. You have some areas that have dense, fibrous fat and others that have softer or loose fat.
If you are a man and want to have gynecomastia liposuction surgery, your surgeon will tell you that the fat in your chest is quite fibrous and that it’s harder to eliminate fat from that area. That’s why laser-assisted or ultrasound-assisted liposuction can be a great option here, because it liquefies the fat before it suctions it out. This makes liposuction much easier to perform in this body area.
But you should go to a plastic surgeon who is very precise and experienced in doing these types of liposuction because they are very delicate. You don’t want to end up with contour irregularities or even worse – burns underneath your skin.
On the other hand, tumescent liposuction is popular, effective, less painful and most importantly very safe. It has a short recovery period and you can have it done just under local anesthesia.
Now, the reason why tumescent lipo gives you great results is that the tumescent solution, that is injected into the targeted area, fills up the fatty layer and causes it to swell and get firm. This really helps the surgeon to have better control when sculpting this area. Also, this solution reduces bleeding, swelling and pain. So, on the whole, it’s an awesome choice of liposuction that rarely causes any contour irregularities and brings you real results.
REMEMBER: in the end, it’s not just about the best liposuction technique. It’s more important who performs it.
So, the liposuction technique that will bring you the best results depends on your targeted area or the type of fat you want to eliminate. In any case, you need to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon whose experience will guide you in choosing the best liposuction for your aesthetic goals.
8. WHO CAN GREATLY BENEFIT FROM LIPOSUCTION?
This is it. This is the crucial question – am I a good candidate for liposuction? Let’s discuss how you can find out.
So, as we said, liposuction is a plastic surgery that helps you get rid of fat deposits between your skin and muscles. You can get it in almost all body parts that are difficult to get sculpted with exercise or diet. It can help you get that ideal shape of abs or other contours.
But liposuction is not a weight loss treatment nor can it substitute healthy lifestyle habits like physical activity and proper diet.
You are a good candidate for liposuction if you are close to your ideal weight but have localized areas of stubborn fat that really bother you and make you feel less confident.
To see if you are a good candidate for liposuction you need to have a consultation with a plastic surgeon. He examines the targeted area in terms of skin elasticity and the amount of fat that needs to be extracted. And a plastic surgeon tells you if you need to lose a bit of weight before you can have liposuction.
Remember your safety comes first and if you need to lose weight to become a good candidate for liposuction that shouldn’t discourage you.
Exercising and proper nutrition are great for your overall health and if you are healthy you will be closer to being a good candidate for this surgery.
If you want to eliminate double chin or fat deposits from your neck, liposuction is a homerun. It contours your entire neck and firms your jawline – it makes you look younger and more attractive.
Another great area to tweak with liposuction is the abdomen and flanks. You especially get great results when you eliminate love handles because liposuction gives you that hourglass effect.
You can be a great candidate for liposuction if you want to get rid of fat rolls right above your breasts or in the bra line. Liposuction works like a charm in that case.
Also, the inner and outer thighs are awesome areas for liposuction because you get slimmer and more attractive legs and if you are left with a bit of loose skin, you can always solve it with RF skin tightening treatments.
So liposuction is an awesome choice for you because it will boost your self-confidence once you see how your newly shaped body areas look and you will instantly be motivated to keep those results. Liposuction can take years off your body, help you look youthful and get rid of body complexes.
When you go to a board-certified plastic surgeon it makes a huge difference in the results and safety of your liposuction surgery.
You have to completely trust your surgeon because your body is in his or her hands.
Now, getting to the level of being a board-certified plastic surgeon is a pretty long way. To get there, plastic surgeons need to have a complete understanding of human anatomy. What’s more, plastic surgeons need to have a trained eye and a bit of artistry in themselves, because it’s not the same to perform liposuction on a male and female body. Contouring is different as well as aesthetic goals. Men want to appear more masculine and it takes a lot of precision to contour pectorals with liposuction. On the other hand, women want to keep their feminine contours like nicely shaped waist or thighs. So, proper body contouring with liposuction isn’t easy – and it really takes a lot of experience.
Another thing, plastic surgeons need to demonstrate safety practices to get that board certification, so getting it is not something that happens overnight.
So, choose a plastic surgeon who is patient and creative or simply put – knows what he/she is doing.
10. WILL LIPOSUCTION REDUCE CELLULITE?
We all have cellulite dimples (especially women). This pesky skin condition, which is sometimes called cottage cheese or orange peel, seems to like being stuck just underneath our skin. If you are thinking about liposuction, of course, the possibility of reducing cellulite with it crossed your mind. But if you thought that you would kill two flies with one slap – you wouldn’t.
Let’s discuss why.
Liposuction can do wonders for your body in terms of contouring it, but unfortunately, it can’t eliminate cellulite.
It simply doesn’t work that way. Liposuction eliminates only the stubborn fat pockets that you have for example on your outer thighs, but it can’t make your skin smooth and dimple-free.
Cellulite is different from fat. It starts to occur underneath your skin when bands of fibrous tissue that lie between your muscles and your skin, start to pull your skin down. And this creates that dimpled appearance on your skin. So, cellulite happens because of problems in the skin’s structure.
Anyway, women have bigger problems with cellulite than men because their bands are thin and vertical. When body areas that are prone to developing cellulite, accumulate more fat, that’s the moment when these bands stretch and pull the skin. Men are not free from cellulite but their bands are thicker and diagonal, so if they accumulate more fat, they create a kind of pattern that keeps the fat in its place and doesn’t pull the skin as much.
So, accumulated fat deposits contribute to the worsening appearance of cellulite. And once you eliminate those fat deposits on your thighs and buttocks, you can improve cellulite just a little bit, but not entirely.
But in some cases, laser-assisted and ultrasound-assisted liposuctions can help with cellulite because they simultaneously firm the skin and remove the fat.
Or, you can combine liposuction with lift surgeries, like leg lifts. In that case, the surgeon removes the fat and excess skin to make the treated area smooth and firm.
And finally, you can opt for non-invasive cellulite removal treatment. There are different options you can choose from at Lucia Clinic – one of them is EMTONE treatment.
EMTONE firms and smooths your skin with safe RF energy. It triggers collagen and elastin production and it simply tightens your skin. This greatly reduces problems with cellulite and gives you even better results after liposuction.
So, as you can see, you can find a suitable solution at Lucia Clinic for the removal of cellulite.
11. CAN LIPOSUCTION MAKE ME SKINNY?
This would be awesome, but in reality, lipo isn’t a weight loss treatment. It can’t significantly lower your weight, but it can motivate you to do that on your own.
So what can liposuction do?
Okay, liposuction won’t make you skinny, but it will give you nice contours and eliminate stubborn fat pockets on the treated area. You already know that delicate areas like your chin or neck sometimes don’t respond to exercise or diet – you simply can’t get rid of that pesky fat and get a nicely contoured jawline or neck. Liposuction can do so much for you in this case, provided that you go to a plastic surgeon who is really precise and experienced.
Another thing is that those stubborn fat pockets are sometimes genetically predetermined. This means that you are bound to accumulate more fat on your abdomen or develop saddlebags on your outer thighs – that’s simply the nature of your body and how it distributes fat cells. Liposuction is a quick solution in these cases because it gives you better-shaped legs or abs.
How can liposuction help you lose weight?
Now, the answer to this question is a bit tricky – most people think that once they are through with the surgery that’s it. They have lost weight.
Actually, liposuction helps you to stay at your desired weight. And that’s not because of what happened to your body after liposuction but because it changes the way you perceive your body.
You see, a lot of people are comfortable with fat pockets in some body areas. But if they invest a lot of time in sweating in the gym or eating a balanced diet and they don’t see the expected results, they tend to give up, because it’s not worth it. That’s the moment when they start packing on those extra kilos.
Once they decide to have liposuction, they can contour those stubborn areas and actually get the body they have been working so hard to get. That’s the moment when you change that negative thoughts, like exercising and dieting weren’t worth it, and you realize that it actually meant a lot for your overall health and fitness.
After liposuction, you get motivated to continue with healthy lifestyle habits because they are so important both for your looks and for your health.
You lose even more weight when you continue to exercise and feel and look great.
So, even though liposuction can’t make you skinny, it can make you happy with the way you look and help you stay on the right track with your health. And that’s all that matters.
12. WILL LIPOSUCTION LEAVE SCARS?
Since liposuction is a surgery, it does leave scars but this doesn’t mean that the scars are huge or visible. Working with an experienced plastic surgeon won’t lead you to worry about unsightly scars.
Let’s see why.
When you are having liposuction, your plastic surgeon creates several small holes in strategic locations (strategic means not visible) that leave very small scars. But the scars fade fast and others can’t really see them because your super precise plastic surgeons placed them in those discreet places.
Right after your liposuction, these holes start to heal and develop a scab. This is completely normal. When the scab falls off, it leaves a tiny white scar. The healing of the incisions usually takes 1 to 2 weeks. As time passes, the scars slowly fade.
Now, this is the best outcome because this liposuction was done by a super-experienced plastic surgeon.
Targeted body sculpting with liposuction can deliver remarkable results.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO CHOOSE THE BEST PLASTIC SURGEON WHEN IT COMES TO SCARS?
Because when you go to an experienced plastic surgeon, you are in good hands. This means that there is a minimal risk that you will be left with scars that are unexpected and unsightly.
As we said, minimal scars will be there, but they won’t be visible to the naked eye.
So, what happens if you go to a less experienced plastic surgeon?
Simply this – an inexperienced plastic surgeon may make the incisions in an obvious place, and increase the chances of the scars being much more visible later. You definitely don’t want that.
Or, if a less experienced plastic surgeon does the liposuction underneath the incisions, those scars might be depressed or look like little dents in your skin. So you definitely want to avoid that!
Finally, if a surgeon uses a larger cannula and makes more passes through the treated area than necessary, he or she will cause a lot of bruising. The scars that develop after this can get dark or hyperpigmented. Now, you can treat these scars later and correct them, but it’s better not to get them in the first place.
In order to avoid leaving unnecessary or unexpected scars, experienced plastic surgeons ask you during consultations about your history with scars. If for example, you have a history of developing keloidal scars you need to share this with your plastic surgeon. Also, the plastic surgeon will take a look at your skin carefully and then determine if you will have some problematic scars after liposuction.
Keloidal scars are something that can’t be predicted. They are raised red scars that don’t fade. They look a bit nasty and happen even if you have a small cut. But there is a solution for these scars if they develop after liposuction. You can treat keloidal scars with cryotherapy or laser therapy. But, as already said, they rarely develop.
HOW LARGE ARE THE INCISIONS?
The incisions that your plastic surgeon makes to perform liposuction are very small – 3 to 4 milimeters. You will get several incisions, at least two of them. It all depends on the area that you’re treating.
The plastic surgeon inserts a cannula or a very thin instrument that suctions the fat out. These thin tubes are advanced and super precise, so they target only the unwanted fat. The surrounding tissue is minimally harmed. With less damage to the tissue, there is less bleeding, swelling, bruising and so the recovery period is much shorter. And, finally, the scars are minimal.
If you are still concerned about scarring after liposuction, talk about it with your plastic surgeon. Tumescent liposuction, for example, is very safe and minimally invasive and when it is done by an experienced plastic surgeon, the risk of unexpected scars is minimal.
After liposuction, your plastic surgeon will explain how to treat your incisions at home and how to reduce the visibility of your already tiny scars.
13. ARE LIPOSUCTION RESULTS PERMANENT?
This may be one of the first questions that you ask your plastic surgeon. So, let’s answer it right away – yes, they are permanent. But there is a twist.
Once you eliminate those pesky localized fat pockets that won’t budge no matter how much you exercise, you will feel and look great. One of the awesome benefits of liposuction (and this benefit will make you happy) is that it gives you permanent results. And you can enjoy these results forever if you continue with a healthy lifestyle.
Liposuction is a great solution for body contouring but you need to keep that awesome-looking body, right?
When the surgeon performs your liposuction, he/she breaks apart fat cells and then sucks them out. But, the surgeon leaves a little bit of fat behind because a little fat is necessary for proper contouring. The removed fat can’t grow back so that’s why liposuction gives you long-lasting results.
But this is where that twist kicks in – you need to keep a stable weight. If you gain a lot of weight after liposuction, these new fat cells will accumulate somewhere else, and you won’t be satisfied with the results anymore.
So, during your consultation with a plastic surgeon, you will find out which liposuction will be the best for you and your aesthetic goals. And once you see the results of your liposuction you will definitely want to prolong the effects of the surgery with regular exercise and a proper diet.
14. HOW CAN I RECOVER SUPER FAST AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
Once you’re done with liposuction your healing period starts. You come home and know that it will take some time to feel fit enough to do all your normal activities. But here are some tips to get you there faster. STAY HYDRATED
During liposuction you lose a lot of fluids so you need to make up for it by drinking plenty of water and other fluids (except alcohol, naturally). JUST TAKE SHOWERS AT FIRST
You can take a shower 24h post-op, but avoid taking a bath, or using hot tubs and a jacuzzi. Also, don’t go swimming because you can catch an infection since your wounds haven’t healed yet. TAKE YOUR MEDICINES REGULARLY
Your plastic surgeon will prescribe you some pain medications and antibiotics, so take them on a regular basis to feel better sooner. GET LYMPHATIC MASSAGES
Of course, only if you think it’s necessary. These massages can be taken after two weeks and they really help with swelling reduction.
All other tips and recommendations for your post-op aftercare, you will get from your surgeon. Make sure to stick to them and you will recover properly and quickly.
15. WHEN CAN I GO BACK TO WORK AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
Okay, so you know that you need to take some time off work after liposuction. You need to recover properly and rest. So, to be able to feel fit and go back to work again you first need to heal for some time.
For how long – it all depends on many factors.
We are all different in terms of our bodies and healing processes. Your post-op recovery depends on the extent of liposuction you just had and also on the treated body area.
Most patients are fit enough to go back to work after 3 to 5 days if they have an office job or other sedentary work.
For patients who have more physically active jobs then it’s better to wait for at least a week, before going back.
So, according to the kind of job you do you can now do the math and see how long it will take for you to go back to work. Anyway, when you actually think about it, one week is not that long, so if you need more time to feel fit enough to start working again, stay at home for that entire week.
Remember that for the best liposuction results you need to follow your surgeon’s recommendations to properly recover after the surgery.
The good thing is that you can return home the same or the following day after the surgery.
Just don’t forget to arrange for someone to drive you home, especially if you had liposuction under general anesthesia.
You will be a bit tired and groggy and definitely not fit to drive.
Another good thing is that you will be functional after 2 to 3 days post-op. You should take light walks on the second day because it will be good for your body in a way that will help reduce the swelling and avoid forming blood clots. So, don’t spend all your time in bed, but feel free to stroll around the house. Of course, don’t overdo it and take a break.
Remember to listen to your body and only do what you feel like doing.
16. WHEN CAN I START EXERCISING AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
So, you are finished with your liposuction surgery and your recovery has started. You feel better and fit enough to go back to work. And then you start thinking about going to the gym because your surgeon has told you that you should keep the results with a proper fitness regime. But don’t be hasty – take your time to fully recover to start lifting those weights.
The moment when you can start exercising depends again on the extent of the liposuction and the treated area. If your liposuction was extensive and you had it on your abdominal region, then you can expect to have swelling and water retention for 2 to 3 weeks. During that time, it’s not a good idea to exercise vigorously. Take just light exercises like walking to help lessen the swelling and lose the accumulated water – as mentioned in the previous chapter.
After 2 to 3 weeks, you can create your fitness regime. First, you can start with light aerobic exercises and then slowly include toning exercises.
After 6 weeks, you are free to get those muscles pumping with more strenuous exercises. To keep yourself nicely shaped after liposuction, you can combine cardio and abs exercises. For cardio, go swimming, running, cycling or whatever you like. For toning exercises, you can lift weights and do sit-ups and squats, but again pay attention to your comfort level.
So adopting a proper fitness regime helps you make the most out of your liposuction surgery – making sure that those pesky fat deposits never return again.
But, as we said in the first week post-op, just take it easy and give your body enough time to heal. Then you will be more than satisfied with the results.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO EXERCISE AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
We already said several times that exercising after liposuction will keep your newly shaped contours nice and firm and you will avoid the accumulation of fat again. And next to exercise, a proper diet will keep you healthy and fit. But, let’s get a bit more serious and talk about what can happen to your body if you don’t break a sweat after liposuction.
You don’t have to be overweight to get liposuction. Actually, you should be close to your ideal weight and stubborn fat on your abdomen, for example. After liposuction, you lose all that fat and feel and look great. And then you start with your fitness regime because exercising is not beneficial just for keeping your abs firm and toned – it is beneficial for your overall health.
You see, the problems start very soon if people choose not to follow their fitness regime after liposuction and continue with their sedentary lifestyle. After just 6 months post-op, these people can accumulate fat in other body areas but what’s even worse, is that fat can wrap around organs in the abdomen. This fat is called visceral fat and can lead to changes in metabolism, and cause diabetes or heart diseases.
That’s why it’s vital to stay active after liposuction.
You can reduce even more fat in your body, get physically fitter and strengthen your endurance. So, your entire quality of life improves.
To conclude, liposuction is a great way of getting a leg up in achieving the looks you have always desired, but exercise and a proper diet will help you keep that gorgeous body.
17. WHY DO LIPOSUCTION AND FAT GRAFTING WORK SO WELL TOGETHER?
If you want a double benefit from your plastic surgery, this is where you get it. Liposuction plus fat grafting is a brilliant combination – you lose fat where you need and you add it where you want. And that’s so amazing.
This is where science and development in the plastic surgery department really show breakthroughs. Imagine that you can slim your abdomen and accentuate your abs and increase the size of your breast or buttocks. Or even rejuvenate your face with small droplets of fat added to strategic places. That’s all possible with these two procedures.
So, the first step is liposuction. Your plastic surgeon suctions out the stubborn fat from your area of concern. This fat is then purified and prepared for the next step – fat grafting. This is where your plastic surgeon shows his/her artistry – the extracted fat is carefully injected into the area you wish to enlarge.
Heard of a BBL procedure? Well, that’s fat grafting of your buttocks. If you want it round, full and nicely shaped, you can get it with your own fat extracted from another area. This procedure is safe in terms of side effects because it’s your own fat that is used, so there is no chance of infection.
Liposuction plus fat grafting really is a win-win procedure. It slims some contours and enhances others – it’s all up to you. For that perfect hourglass figure, these two procedures can bring you amazing results.
18. WHEN CAN I FLY AFTER LIPOSUCTION?
Okay, here you may have two scenarios. First, you live in Europe for example, but you want to have your liposuction done by plastic surgeons at Lucia Clinic. So you need to fly to Dubai for your surgery. The second scenario is that you want to fly to some exotic place on vacation and finally feel confident about your newly shaped body.
Let’s discuss what you can expect after liposuction in terms of flying again.
For the first scenario, thumbs up to you if you have decided to fly to Dubai and get your lipo done by expert plastic surgeons at Lucia Clinic. It’s not unusual to fly to another continent if you know that your results will be as you expected. Many people do it so medical tourism is a real thing. And people never regret it because it goes a long way to have their surgeries done by surgeons they can really trust.
So, if you have decided to do it, it’s normal that you are thinking about when you will be able to fly back home. The moment you are free to fly depends on how extensive your liposuction was.
If you had done it on some smaller area, like your neck and under local anesthesia, then you can probably fly home after just a few days. But your surgeon needs to give you a green light for that.
If you had your liposuction under general anesthesia and it was a more extensive procedure, then you can fly after 2 to 4 weeks. Again your surgeon will recommend when you can fly because it depends on how fast you are recovering and getting fit enough to travel.
That’s all because of the risk of blood clots which are rare but may be a concern when it comes to flying. Also, as air pressure changes during a flight, that may cause increased swelling. You can discuss all this during your initial consultation with your plastic surgeon and don’t forget to mention if you have a history of blood clots. Your surgeon will know then what to tell you about flying.
For the second scenario, or flying on vacation after liposuction, you should wait for at least a whole month or a bit more to fly. That’s simply because you want your body to fully heal before you wear that dream bikini or other swimsuit. You don’t want to show the potential residue of swelling, redness or other possible side effects. You already know that you need at least a week to become fully functional after liposuction.
So, before you fly on vacation, give your body enough time to properly recover. Then you will enjoy your vacation more and really feel and look great.
That’s it. I hope these facts cleared some misconceptions you had about liposuction.
If you have any other questions don’t hesitate to contact Lucia Clinic.

GET THE BEST OUT OF THE TWO TREATMENTS – EMFACE PLUS ACCENT PRIME
You can try something special this month – two great skin-tightening treatments in a single session. EMFACE is a new treatment on the block, but it has already shown how great it is – it firms your facial skin by toning your facial muscles and lifting your skin. But the additional treatment, Accent Prime tightens the skin on your neck with safe ultrasound and RF energies. This combo ultimately revitalizes both your face and neck – your skin will look amazing.
PREPARE YOUR SKIN FOR THE FUTURE
If you are tired of looking tired, then this combo will refresh your face to the fullest. Once your skin starts to lose its elasticity and become saggy, it’s time to do something about it. Isn’t it great when people just can’t guess your age because you look so youthful? EMFACE combined with Accent Prime will make the skin on your face and neck smooth and firm – more importantly it will make your skin resilient to future aging. These two treatments can dramatically impact your skin – their energies are safe but super powerful. Combined, EMFACE and Accent Prime will enhance the results even further.
AWAKE THE COLLAGEN AND STRENGTHEN YOUR FACIAL MUSCLES
This may sound a bit out there, but that’s exactly what you get with these two treatments. EMFACE is super effective in targeting the facial muscles that lift your brows. Once they get stronger, your facial features like your cheeks and brows appear lifted and firmer. Next in line is RF energy – another important part of EMFACE that works on that collagen underneath your skin and wakes it up. Boosted collagen then reduces your forehead wrinkles and your entire face appears bright, shiny and most importantly – fully rejuvenated. Add Accent Prime to all this and both your neck and face will look brilliant.
LIFT AND FIRM YOUR SKIN WITHOUT NEEDLES
It’s always great when you have other options. If you don’t like injectables, then these two treatments are your answer. They are completely non-invasive and don’t require any downtime. EMFACE is a face contouring treatment that is comfortable – some even say it makes them giggle. Accent Prime causes a powerful fibroblast in your skin without harming the surface of your skin in any way. The magic happens beneath your skin and very soon you notice that your face and neck look differently – it’s absolutely flawless!
This month you can also book CoolSculpting – a fantastic body contouring treatment.

Think about CoolSculpting as a body-contouring treatment that will give your body finishing touches. Do you have the infamous saddlebags on your outer thighs? That’s a perfect body area for CoolSculpting. It will slim your thighs in no time. Or you don’t like your double chin, love handles, banana roll or bra rolls – these areas of isolated fat don’t stand a chance against CoolSculpting. With applicators that come in different shapes and sizes, you can freeze away the fat in even the most delicate areas like your chin.
ZERO DOWNTIME PLUS GREAT RESULTS EQUALS COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT
We indeed live in a fast-paced world and we don’t always have the privilege to spend a lot of time off work because of a long recovery. That’s why CoolSculpting is brilliant – there is no downtime and you can continue with your busy day right after your session. It’s all because CoolSculpting is non-invasive and it doesn’t cause any discomfort – except for a bit of a chilling sensation. But that’s how CoolSculpting works. We all have different skin and some patients experience mild side effects like redness, swelling or tingling sensations. But that’s just short-term – in a few hours everything cools off. After about 3 months, you notice that your treated area has significantly less fat than before, all thanks to CoolSculpting.
Another great treatment you can book this month is skin-tightening Sofwave – you will be amazed by the results.
REJUVENATE YOUR FACE WITH LUCIA CLINIC’S SOFWAVE TREATMENT
If you want to upgrade your skincare routine, Sofwave is your thing. This latest anti-aging solution wipes off wrinkles from your face, rebuilds your collagen and makes your skin super radiant and youthful. This next-gen treatment lifts your mildly loose skin in a safe, fast and absolutely effective way. It is non-invasive and you can get it during lunch break. Sofwave has it all covered!
GET SMOOTH AND YOUTHFUL-LOOKING SKIN
It’s all about that collagen – we hear so much about it in anti-aging. Collagen keeps your skin firm and young and when you start losing it, you develop wrinkles and loose skin. That’s where Sofwave can truly help you with these skin concerns – it boosts your collagen after a single treatment. And continues to boost your collagen for three months after the session. Your skin becomes smoother and plumper – it simply starts to shine. Also, your skin gets firmer and subtly lifted. Sofwave treats the dermis layer which keeps the skin firm. It doesn’t treat your skin too deeply – only 1.5mm. But that’s enough to lift the skin on your eyebrows, for example, for 3 to 4 mm. That’s pretty amazing.
IMPROVE YOUR SKIN IN JUST 30 MINUTES
If you are in for a real lunchtime treatment, then Sofwave is just for you. It is faster than some other anti-aging procedures because it has a larger applicator. This applicator covers larger areas of your face and neck. But even though it is large, the applicator is super precise and reaches even the smallest areas of your face. That’s how you get the maximum benefit from an aesthetic treatment. After 30 minutes you notice that your skin is glowing and that it is smoother and tighter. Sofwave emits powerful ultrasound energy that enhances your skin immediately but it doesn’t harm your skin in any way. That’s why it’s a great lunchtime treatment – you can return to your daily routine right away.

Finally, this month take a different road to fulfill your aesthetic goals with complementary plastic surgery consultation – with real plastic surgeons.
TUNE IN TO YOUR PLASTIC SURGERY WITH LUCIA’S PLASTIC SURGEONS
How can you more easily decide to have plastic surgery? Well, by getting real answers from real plastic surgeons. Having a complimentary consultation with Lucia’s plastic surgeons is the first step toward fulfilling what you have always dreamt about – a more flattering nose, a rejuvenated face, slimmer body contours and so on. Your aesthetic goals are closer to becoming a reality with the help and guidance of certified plastic surgeons. And let’s not forget – artistic plastic surgeons who can help you during consultations to imagine what the right plastic surgery will do for you.
PREPARE TO SHARE
The first thing that you need to do is be honest to the core with your plastic surgeon. Share everything that bothers you, all body concerns you have, all your fears and of course expectations. With the huge experience that Lucia’s surgeons have, they will put you at ease and honestly answer all the questions that are buzzing in your head. It’s important to trust your plastic surgeon and during your consultation, you will soon realize that there is nothing to worry about. Remember – Lucia’s team puts your safety and well-being in the first place. And that means a lot when you are deciding to undergo this type of aesthetic procedure.
GET A CUSTOMIZED PLASTIC SURGERY TREATMENT PLAN
While discussing with your surgeon about your body concerns and the improvements you wish to accomplish, you will clearly understand what plastic surgery will bring you desired results. Let’s say you want breast augmentation surgery – during the consultation, your plastic surgeon will precisely tell you which implants to choose. This means that you will understand what shape and size of implants would suit your anatomy the most – and help you get that perfectly harmonious silhouette. It’s easy to picture your new breasts when the surgeon explains and demonstrates everything.
And you will also learn, that you are different than other patients and that there is no one size that fits everybody. That’s why a customized treatment plan will be so beneficial to you.
NO TIME TO LOSE – PLAN YOUR PLASTIC SURGERY NOW
And you will start with a complimentary consultation. Some plastic surgeries require a longer recovery time but others don’t. There are advanced techniques that are minimally invasive and still bring better-than-expected results. Some plastic surgeries can even be done under local anesthesia which greatly reduces downtime. You can ask your surgeon about these innovative techniques and see if they are right for you and your aesthetic concerns. It’s good to know all your options. In the end, your safety and satisfaction with the final results are what matters the most.

This learning experience definitely helped Lucia’s team to upgrade their already high level of expertise and go even further in achieving the best possible results for their patients.
This prestigious world congress really makes a difference. It connects the aesthetic medical community. It gives a chance to be surrounded by top dermatologists and plastic surgeons from all over the world.
LUCIA CLINIC IS AND WILL STAY A REGIONAL LEADER IN AESTHETIC DERMATOLOGY
And here’s why!
All your skincare and skin health will be taken care of by Lucia Clinic’s dedicated team. Luci’s team comprises leading dermatologists, physicians and plastic surgeons.

This is something that depicts true professionals – following ethics and keeping the patients satisfied and safe.
Customization of every single treatment is another thing that makes Lucia Clinic so successful in fulfilling its clients’ aesthetic goals. Every patient is different and has different skin. Dr. Radmila Lukian and her team always pay individual attention to every client and create a bespoke treatment plan that addresses the client’s specific skin concerns.

They follow the trends but they are also the trendsetters. That’s something all their clients appreciate very much – if you heard about a new approach in dermatology, plastic surgery or anti-aging treatments, chances are that Lucia Clinic is already offering it.
While we are on that topic, one of the latest facial treatments that you can exclusively get at Lucia Clinic is
EMFACE TREATMENT – INTRODUCED IN THIS YEAR’S IMCAS WORLD CONGRESS
As Dr. Radmila Lukian recognized the quality and effectiveness of EMFACE treatment, she was more than glad that Lucia Clinic had an opportunity to launch EMFACE before the world premiere.
EMFACE really is a ground-breaking treatment that brings the future of facial treatments into a reality. A lot of regular clients from Dr. Radmila have tried this effective anti-aging solution and raved about the results. Especially for those clients who are not fans of needles and always look for needle-free facial treatment – EMFACE works wonderfully.
The effectiveness of EMFACE lies in the powerful connection of two different energies – this is something really revolutionary. Never before any facial treatment could target the patient’s facial skin, facial muscles and connective tissue at the same time. EMFACE is a powerful workout for the face – it makes it smoother, better structured and youthful. These features are the ones that give the patient’s face the ultimate rejuvenation – in just 20 minutes.
Since Lucia Clinic offers its patients only the highest quality and absolutely safe treatments, EMFACE is definitely no exception. It is a non-invasive, painless and super-effective treatment that brings visible and real results. After just 4 sessions, you can see significant improvements in your facial skin.
Wrinkles and fine lines become visibly reduced because of the RF energy, that targets collagen in your skin and awakes it. Once your collagen starts to build up, your face becomes plumper, smoother and youthful – one plus for EMFACE. Another plus goes for HIFES energy that makes your facial muscles contract, and get stronger and better-toned. These muscles keep your skin lifted and give you nice facial contours. No more saggy skin. All this happens in a completely natural way because of your own skin proteins like collagen and elastin that create that rejuvenated look you have always desired. And combined with defined facial muscles and beautifully tight skin on your facial contours like chin, jawline, cheeks and forehead you get the full package.
So no needles and injectable treatments for you if you don’t like them – EMFACE brings you the same satisfying results very quickly, without side effects and downtime.
LUCIA’S TEAM ALWAYS GIVES CONTRIBUTION TO WORLD MEDICAL CONGRESSES
This privilege is exceptional and precious. In 2018, Dr. Lukian was one of the keynote speakers at the 20th anniversary of IMCAS in Paris. That year, a couple of thousands of people attended this extraordinary congress, which is undoubtedly one of the most important events in the field of dermatology and plastic surgery.
Dr. Radmila presented her successful approach in dermatology for multiple ethnicities. This world-renowned specialist proved once more how vital it is to always strive for new findings and perfect the techniques in dermatology and aesthetic treatments. Dr. Radmila’s clients know this very well.
So, Lucia Clinic is more than excited to have attended this world congress in this beautiful city. Lucia’s team once more had the opportunity to participate in an interactive, multidisciplinary program and interact with other inspiring colleagues, learn about new techniques, gather new experiences and discover new products.
Lucia’s team once more equipped themselves with the latest updates in techniques, research and innovative approaches in dermatology, minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, body contouring and practice management.
This congress brought fresh knowledge that will boost Lucia Clinic’s practice even further and offer Lucia’s patients a new scope of aesthetic and dermatology treatments. Lucia’s Team’s high level of expertise will go one step further again.

When you talk to people about plastic surgery, you definitely hear a lot of different pros and cons about it. It is usually – I love it! My plastic surgeon is great! Or – No, thank you! You should accept who you are. All these reasons are valid, but it’s also something that you decide for yourself. You might also think that accepting your body is Okay, but a little tweaking would just make you more satisfied with the way you look.
Perhaps people around you who still aren’t for plastic surgery may have overlooked some super important and significant changes that happened in the field of plastic surgery. And these positive changes play an important role in the affirmation of plastic surgery.
Let’s bust some old myths about plastic surgery.
Myth #1 – People have plastic surgeries because they feel self-conscious.
Reality – A lot of people who had plastic surgeries simply wanted to fulfill their aesthetic goals which they couldn’t accomplish with a diet or fitness regime. So, having plastic surgery doesn’t mean that you are insecure – we all want to accentuate our best features and we do it with makeup, clothes or hairstyle.
Deciding to have plastic surgery means being open to new, positive changes. Some people have plastic surgery to get rid of some problem that has bothered them for years but we can’t immediately point at them and say they are self-conscious. For these people, solving their body concerns simply means feeling good in their bodies again.
So the bottom line is that after plastic surgery you should feel happier and more satisfied with how you look and not necessarily feel more confident.
Myth #2 – Plastic surgery isn’t for men.
Reality: This is so not true. Plastic surgery isn’t gender-specific. Actually, more and more men have plastic surgeries because they want to feel and look good. In fact, male plastic surgery is done in huge numbers and this number is constantly increasing. There are new techniques and approaches to plastic surgery that include a lot of options just for men. So, male plastic surgery is definitely no longer a taboo.
There is a huge list of plastic surgeries designed just for gents like gynecomastia surgery, pectorals enlargement, liposuction and fat grafting for male facial features enhancement.
The most important thing here is to find a plastic surgeon who is an expert in male plastic surgery and who will actually achieve the best results. This means that in hands of a skillful plastic surgeon, men won’t lose their masculinity. On the contrary, they will just enhance it.
Myth #3 – Plastic surgery is risky and not worth the trouble.
Reality: Plastic surgery is much safer now because of all the advancements in techniques and approaches. And the level of safety is constantly increasing. It’s all about meeting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who will safely guide you during the process of having plastic surgery. The plastic surgeon carefully examines the body area you wish to enhance with plastic surgery and gives you tons of recommendations on how to prepare for the surgery and how to recover quickly afterward. Trusting your doctor and following all the recommendations keeps you on the safe side.
Regarding advancements in plastic surgery, there are new techniques that leave you with fewer side effects and allow you to be back on your feet very soon. For example, Tumescent Liposuction is performed with just local anesthesia – this is truly revolutionary. You get beautiful results and don’t spend a lot of time on recovery.
Myth #4 – People have plastic surgeries just for cosmetic reasons.
Reality: Many people have plastic surgery for therapeutic reasons also. Just remember how many women have improved the appearance of their breasts after breast cancer. Silicone implants help with the correction of asymmetry and shape and are not just used for enhancement of the breast size. This plastic surgery is actually used for reconstructive purposes and helps women feel good in their bodies again.
Another example is functional rhinoplasty. Some people are born with nasal deformities that don’t let them breathe properly. So plastic surgery can resolve this issue or make their noses more symmetrical. The bottom line is that a “nose job” doesn’t have to be performed just for cosmetic reasons but the end result definitely contributes to better facial proportions.
Or think about Tummy Tuck plastic surgery. It is definitely a procedure that has both therapeutic and cosmetic benefits. It resolves the issue of diastasis recti or separated abdominal muscles. Many female patients suffer from this condition after pregnancy so having a chance to return their abdomens to their pre-baby appearance really helps them feel great in their bodies. This feeling is truly precious.
In the end, considering if plastic surgery is something that you really need is up to you. Just remember that many people who had plastic surgery just for aesthetic reasons later realized how it was a life-changing experience for them.
Myth #5 – Plastic surgery like liposuction promotes the fact that only a slimmer body is attractive.
Reality: Plastic surgeries are not about luring you into unrealistic expectations. Nor do plastic surgeons believe that slim contours are trendy – they don’t even think about that. Plastic surgeons want to give you results that you will be satisfied with and that will match the proportions of the rest of your body. We are all different and our beauty comes in all body types.
Remember BBL or Brazillian Butt lift plastic surgery? It is used to add volume to the buttocks. This innovative approach to plastic surgery actually makes you more curvaceous. The first part of this plastic surgery includes liposuction or extracting extra fat from for example abdomen and then transferring it to the buttocks. Liposuction does make your waist and abdomen slimmer but it also makes your buttocks plumper. But it’s all in natural results – the BBL procedure actually makes you look better-proportioned. So it’s not all about making patients look slimmer, but making them more ideally proportioned but only to the extent that they desire.
Myth #6 – Plastic surgery makes you look fake.
Reality: Real plastic surgeons want to bring you natural-looking results with plastic surgery and not make it too obvious that you had some tweaking. There aren’t cookie-cutter results that work for everyone. So don’t think that a button nose for rhinoplasty or a pillow face for facelift is a set goal for these plastic surgeries.
A good plastic surgeon creates a customized procedure plan that will bring the results that you desire. Every plastic surgery is different and unique for every patient. It doesn’t start or end with the doctor who imposes the results on you but it starts with a consultation where you discuss with your plastic surgeon about your anatomy, proportions and aesthetic goals.
You can check the before and after photos with your surgeon just to be sure that you see eye to eye about the results. In many cases, women who want breast augmentation surgery, end up with implants that give them less projection because they look more natural – and it’s always the best choice. So a really good plastic surgeon will guide you through the whole process safely, advise you on how to heal properly and finally give you the results that you wanted and that are in harmony with the rest of your features.
Myth #7 – liposuction doesn’t remove fat forever
Reality: yes it does. Fat doesn’t return after this plastic surgery. Liposuction extracts fat cells from the area where there is an excess amount of them and they can’t grow back. That’s the beauty of liposuction – it permanently frees you from unattractive fat bulges in your abdomen, thighs, arms or chin. However, after this plastic surgery, it’s imperative that you keep a steady weight, exercise regularly and eat a proper diet. This way you will prevent new fat cells from growing around the treated area and keep your slimmer contours for a long time.
Myth #8 – Breast implants aren’t safe and long-lasting.
Reality: Yes, they are. There are new generations of silicone breast implants that are very safe and last longer than 10 years. According to studies, breast implants don’t increase the risk of breast cancer, but you still need to have breast examinations after you get them.
Also, there is a general belief that breast implants stop lactation and prevent breastfeeding. This can’t be said for sure because if a woman gets implants before she had a baby and tried breastfeeding, chances are that she can’t breastfeed even without the implants. Other women who had breastfed their babies without any trouble before implants, will be able to do it also after they get implants. Breast implants don’t interfere with lactating glands and can be placed in a way that they don’t interfere with breastfeeding. It’s all about timing your breast augmentation surgery. If you are planning a family after getting breast implants, it’s best to consult your plastic surgeon about breastfeeding.
Myth #9 – Plastic surgery leaves you with unsightly scars.
Reality: you are left with scars because it’s impossible not to have scars after surgical procedures, but they are strategically hidden and aren’t visible. This is where the expertise and artistry of a real plastic surgeon come into the spotlight – the success of plastic surgery is measured by the ability to hide the scars.
A skilled plastic surgeon will choose the location for the incisions in the natural creases in your skin or in some unnoticeable area that will hide the scars. Also, the surgeon will choose the best technique for closing the incisions which also results in less visible scars. After your incisions have fully healed, you can use proper creams that will make your scars even less visible. Your plastic surgeon will advise you on this also.
So, even though plastic surgery involves making incisions in your skin, a real plastic surgeon makes elegant improvements to the body area of your concern – it doesn’t need to be noticed by other people.
Myth #10 – Plastic surgery is just for the rich and famous
Reality: Since the technology and new approaches to plastic surgery are constantly developing, a lot of plastic surgeries have become less invasive and therefore less expensive. So nowadays plastic surgeries are very much available for average people. Also, there are numerous financing options that can be agreed upon between the patient and the clinic.
So you don’t have to be a VIP to get plastic surgery. Simply talk to your plastic surgeon about the best-paying options that work for you.
Myth #11 – You are not a feminist if you have plastic surgery.
Reality: let’s say right away that having plastic surgery isn’t about becoming more appealing to the opposite sex. It’s about making your own choice to improve your looks. So, people shouldn’t judge you because of that. It’s not about rating someone based just on how they want to look. There are so many other things that are more important when we are creating an opinion about somebody.
So, deciding to have plastic surgery is your and only your decision. And you do it for yourself and nobody else. You can have different reasons for it, but in the end, having plastic surgery will make you feel good about yourself and not others.

THE FUTURE OF FACIAL TREATMENTS IS HERE WITH EMFACE
Are you in for a treatment that doesn’t include needles? Well, EmFace is perfect then and you can try it exclusively at Lucia Clinic. This most advanced treatment uses technology that’s stronger than BOTOX! It is non-invasive, comfortable and doesn’t require any downtime. So if you want a treatment that will bring you great results but won’t stop you from social interactions, then EmFace is your new thing.
GET A PERFECTLY LOOKING FACE
This is what EmFace can offer you – tighter skin and stronger facial muscles. This powerful treatment unites two energies that will make your face youthful again. RF energy targets your wrinkles and fine lines by triggering collagen and elastin production deep in your skin. The heat, emitted from RF energy travels deep into your dermis and makes these important proteins build up. And then it happens – your wrinkles become less visible, especially those on your forehead and around your mouth. Soon you notice that EmFace has taken years from your face.
The other energy that works along with RF, is HIFES – the energy that firms your facial muscles. It targets the muscles on your forehead and cheeks and makes them contract. Your facial muscles get stronger and keep the entire structure of your face firm. Your saggy skin is lifted and your face looks youthful. This powerful facial muscles workout is something you could never do alone – luckily EmFace can do it for you.
REJUVENATE YOUR FACE IN A NON-INVASIVE WAY
EmFace treatment is perfect if you want to avoid injectables. This needle-free, non-invasive treatment is very comfortable and requires absolutely no downtime. Its applicators are applied to your forehead and on both cheeks – the most targeted facial areas. You just feel a mild warmth as the RF energy is heating your dermis and a funny, tingling feeling as HIFES energy is contracting your muscles. It’s a completely safe treatment that brings you smoother skin and a youthful-looking face in a flash.
SAY GOODBYE TO AGING SIGNS
There is no other treatment like EmFace. This 2-in-1 facial procedure can address your entire face without side effects or downtime. EmFace really made a revolution in aesthetic anti-aging treatments because it was impossible to treat both the skin and facial muscles before. But now you get the whole thing – firm, lifted and smooth skin and toned muscles. No more wrinkles or saggy skin, just a perfectly contoured face.
GOT A LUNCH BREAK? PERFECT FOR EMFACE
EmFace treatment really is a lunchtime treatment. In just 30 minutes you are in and out of Lucia Clinic. You don’t have to prepare for the treatment or take some special care of your face afterward – you just simply continue with your day. There are no side effects and literally, no downtime because Emface is non-invasive and gentle to your face. And yet after just 4 sessions, you notice that your facial skin is firmer, your wrinkles are less visible and your facial muscles are keeping your face nicely structured. Your face gets radiant and youthful, all thanks to the magic of EmFace. That’s really amazing!
Another awesome treatment you can have this month at Lucia Clinic is a back facial.
PAMPER YOUR BACK SKIN WITH LUCIA’S BACK FACIAL
Back facial perhaps isn’t a typical facial, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t get one. You have heard of a facial that is just for your face, neck or decolletage. But your back also deserves rejuvenating aesthetic treatment. A back facial is very beneficial for your back skin because it can help you with acne breakouts, dry or oily skin or it can just simply relax you. This treatment is a game changer for your back, an often neglected body area in terms of aesthetic procedures.
CLEAR YOUR BACK FROM SKIN BLEMISHES IN 3 STEPS
The first step is cleansing and exfoliation, performed with an applicator that has a fast-rotating tip. Lucia’s skin therapist uses this applicator to remove dead skin cells and open the pores on your skin. Your skin is fresh and clean and prepared for the next step – extraction. All the dirt, pollutants and debris are suctioned and eliminated. The skin on your back is prepared for solutions or the third step – diffusion and hydration. The skin therapist gently fuses your skin with a customized solution that has antioxidants and other anti-aging ingredients. This solution hydrates and protects your skin from impurities or harmful agents.
With a back facial, you will definitely prepare for bikini or backless clothes season. Clean and hydrated back skin enhances your entire appearance. And this treatment is all about that – making you beam with radiance all over your body. This completely non-invasive treatment is very soothing. After a back facial, your back is clear, hydrated and soft.
GET RID OF DRY OR OILY SKIN ON YOUR BACK
Back facial works for both dry or oily back skin. Dry skin is common and becomes even more prominent as the skin matures. So it’s time to deal with dry skin with a back facial treatment. You always moisturize our face, hands, elbows and other parts of the body. But your back deserves the same attention. With a back facial, you can finally hydrate your back – a hard-to-reach body area. If, on the other hand, you have oily skin it can often lead to acne breakouts or simply make you feel uncomfortable. With a back facial, you get rid of excess oil and refresh your back skin. Also, this procedure improves the tone and texture of your back skin and leaves it smooth and silky.
DETOXIFY THE SKIN ON YOUR BACK WITH BACK FACIAL
Environmental factors like sun, wind, pollution and dirt can negatively affect your back skin. And you can’t treat your back skin alone – you need a helping hand. Lucia’s skin therapists can do wonders to your back skin with their back facial. Eliminating the negative effects of environmental pollutants is one important benefit of this treatment. Back facial penetrates the layers of the skin on your back and detoxifies them from sun and wind damage and other pollutants. It nourishes your skin and hydrates it deeply. And only well-hydrated skin is beautiful, healthy and radiant.
PREVENT AGING SIGNS ON THE SKIN OF YOUR BACK
With Lucia’s back facial, you can trigger collagen production and boost cell production. With more collagen, your skin on the back will be smoother and firmer. Back facials take your everyday skincare routine to a whole new level. With regular back facials, your skin will improve its appearance, tone and texture. Your whole body needs proper hydration and nourishment – your back included. If you have a special event coming up where you want to wear a backless dress, a back facial is a perfect treatment that will make your back radiant and put you in the spotlight!
RELAX YOUR BACK MUSCLES DURING A BACK FACIAL
Another awesome benefit of a back facial is that it relaxes your muscles and reduces their tension. As we said, with a back facial you are pampering your back and every pampering is soothing and relaxing. Back facial covers your shoulders, neck and back so you get cleansing, exfoliation and moisturizing of one of the largest body areas that you can’t do alone. Even if you don’t have issues with acne breakouts, back facials will be greatly beneficial. The best thing there is no downtime after a back facial – you can continue with your daily routine or social interaction immediately.
Finally, if you have decided to have plastic surgery, get a complimentary consultation with Lucia’s plastic surgeons.

MEET THE FUTURE OF FACIAL TREATMENTS
Exclusively at Lucia Clinic, you have the chance to experience something completely revolutionary when it comes to facial treatments – EmFace! We are pleased to offer you this first-of-its-kind technology that is stronger than Botox!

This is all a plus since it’s the festive season and you need a treatment that will bring you outstanding results without downtime. Get ready to party with your radiant face.
THE POWER OF EMFACE THAT BRINGS YOUR FACE TO PERFECTION
Yes, EmFace is powerful because it combines two separate energies that work together to make your face radiant and youthful-looking. HIFES energy targets your facial muscle precisely where you need it – on your forehead and around your mouth. This energy makes your facial muscles contract and get stronger. The result – your cheeks get lifted and there is less saggy skin. Your facial skin is firm and toned and the whole structure of your face looks more youthful – all thanks to the powerful workout of your facial muscles.
REDUCE WRINKLES AND FINE LINES WITH RF ENERGY
This is the second energy that kicks in together with HIFES and triggers collagen and elastin production in your skin. This energy heats the dermis and awakens these important skin proteins. Pretty soon, the wrinkles on your forehead and around your mouth become less visible. Your skin is smooth and tight and it looks younger. No more aging face – with EmFace you take off years of your face.
REJUVENATE YOUR WHOLE FACE WITH EMFACE
No more separated treatments – EmFace is the first treatment that can address your full face. You get the full package – it works on firming your muscles and tightening your skin at the same time. This used to be impossible, but now, with this totally futuristic treatment, you get it all. And as you already know, everything is possible with Lucia Clinic’s team of experts – they always WOW you with their treatments and amazing results. EmFace is no exception here.
NOT A FAN OF NEEDLES? THAT’S OKAY
EmFace is a needle-free, non-invasive treatment that causes absolutely no pain. Lucia’s therapist places EmFace applicators on strategic areas of your face and you just feel slight warmth and funny feeling of muscle contractions that actually makes you laugh. It sounds silly, but remember – your safety is in the first place and with EmFace you are safe and sound. You just get a tingling sensation – it’s a really unique experience. But the results are there – smooth skin and stronger facial muscles in no time.
IMPROVE YOUR FACIAL CONTOURS DURING YOUR LUNCHTIME
EmFace is really fast, so it’s perfect for you if you’re busy. In just 20 to 30 minutes you are finished with the session. There are no preparations or aftercare – you simply carry on with your daily routine after the treatment. But with a twist – your face will glow, it will feel tighter and it will look youthful.
After 4 sessions of Emface you can expect fewer wrinkles, firmer skin and stronger facial muscles, all without needles or downtime. And as we said at the beginning Emface is even stronger than Botox!
So don’t hesitate to schedule your appointment for a unique EmFace treatment. You will love it!

CUSTOMIZE COOLSCULPTING TREATMENT JUST FOR YOURSELF
That’s a big plus for this treatment because it is so versatile. It has so many different applicators – small, medium and large, that you can actually target a hard-reachable body area like a double chin. Or you can focus on love handles or saddle bags on your thighs. It’s all up to you and the aesthetic goals you want to achieve with CoolSculpting. It can address stubborn fat cells in almost all body areas and help you feel great about your new slimmer contours.
