Most of the population is struggling with excess fat during their lives. Especially for women, fat often stores in the body parts like abdomen, hips, and thighs, but even for men, these problems are not an exception. Nor is it the rule that fat must be in these places. For example, some people are bothered by fat gathering the chest or arm areas. Occasionally it holds there so firmly that healthy eating and enough movement are not enough to get rid of it. It is for this case particularly that the classic tumescent liposuction is popular.
Of course, it is best if it is possible to get rid of excess fat on your own, but often it is not possible. And liposuction can help in these situations. Pay a visit to our clinic for a free consultation and our specialist will advise you on which liposuction method to choose for the optimal results.

That makes the entire area numb and helps to dissolve fat cells. A liposuction cannula is introduced and sucking the fat from under the skin through a few small injections.
