Natural shapes, more proportional contours
Liposuction at Saint James Clinic
Liposuction can help you get rid of stubborn fat deposits that remain despite diet and exercise. The aim is to achieve a more proportionate body shape and a more confident appearance.

When stubborn fat cushions won't go away
Sometimes, despite all the effort, there is still fat in certain areas of the body. The shape of your abdomen, thighs, hips or upper arms may not reflect the hard work you have put into changing your lifestyle.
Unfortunately, this also has an impact on self-confidence and lifestyle, but a targeted intervention can make a big difference to the patient's well-being.
Confident look, tight contours
Liposuction at Saint James Clinic helps to restore body proportions, smooth contours and enhance natural shapes.
The result is a lighter, more confident look to be proud of. All this without compromise and without spectacular scars is now offered by modern surgery.

Process
Learn about the whole liposuction process
Liposuction is a personalised body contouring procedure performed by our experienced plastic surgeons using modern technology and a strict safety protocol. Our aim is to ensure that you know exactly what to expect at every stage and are prepared for change.
01 / Consultation and planning
At the first appointment, our surgeon will assess your body type, skin elasticity and fat distribution. They will discuss the desired result and the areas to be treated. You can discuss funding issues with our patient coordinator, so everything will be transparent before surgery.
02 / Preparation and medical examinations
Before the operation, a full examination is carried out, including laboratory, ECG and internal medicine tests. Avoidance of smoking, blood-thinning drugs and alcohol is recommended. All details are agreed in advance to ensure everything goes smoothly on the day of surgery.
03 / Intervention with our experienced surgeons
Liposuction is performed under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia, depending on the size of the area treated. Our surgeons use a gentle technique to remove excess fat tissue through tiny incisions, so that scars are barely visible. If necessary, the procedure can be complemented with other body contouring procedures (such as abdominoplasty) for a more harmonious contour.
04 / Recovery, control, aftercare
After the operation, you will be observed for a few days in the clinic, where recovery will take place in a comfortable and safe environment. During the first weeks, it is recommended to wear compression garments, avoid physical exertion and introduce gradual exercise. During follow-up visits, our doctors will monitor the recovery process to ensure that the results are long-lasting and harmonious.

Feedback from our patients
For many of our patients, liposuction involves a major lifestyle change. We are proud that the results are not only visible in appearance, but also in self-confidence and everyday comfort.
At Saint James Clinic, every patient's story is different, but the goal is the same:
regain harmony, self-identity and security.
„I was exercising and dieting with a trainer, but I still had some stubborn fat on my stomach and hips. After the procedure, I finally have a more proportioned figure and I'm finally happy to wear clothes I haven't dared to wear for a long time. I think the recovery was quick and the end result exceeded all my expectations!”
Misconceptions and reality about liposuction
There are many misconceptions about liposuction, mainly due to outdated information on the internet. Our plastic surgeons have collected the most common questions and misconceptions to help you make an informed decision.
„Liposuction is a weight loss method.”
The aim of the intervention is not to reduce weight, but to refine the proportions of the body. The best results are achieved when the patient comes to the surgery with a stable body weight and a healthy lifestyle.
„After liposuction, the fat grows back.”
The removed fat cells do not re-form. The results are permanent if the patient maintains his or her weight and watches exercise and diet.
„The surgery is painful and the recovery is long.”
Thanks to modern techniques, the procedure is gentle, the scars are small and heal quickly. Most people return to daily life after a few days.
„Only large amounts of fat can be removed.”
Liposuction is a targeted intervention, even in small areas, to effectively shape the body. The emphasis is on proportions and a natural overall effect.
„Liposuction is dangerous.”
With an experienced surgeon, a sterile environment and proper preparation, the procedure is safe. At Saint James Clinic, all operations are performed according to medical protocol and in the presence of an anaesthetist.

Questions and answers
Frequently asked questions about liposuction
Liposuction is an intervention tailored to the individual. The following questions will help you to understand the procedure and the recovery process.
How painful is liposuction?
The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia, so there is no pain. In the days after the operation, there may be some tightness, tenderness and mild swelling, but these are quickly relieved and well controlled with painkillers.
When will the result be visible?
The first changes are noticeable within a few weeks after the procedure, with the final shape taking 3-6 months to develop. The skin gradually becomes smoother and the proportions of the body are naturally corrected.
Are scars left?
The incisions are 2-3 millimetres long and are hidden in skin folds. With proper care, the scars will fade within a short time and later become almost imperceptible.
Can the fat grow back?
The removed fat cells do not re-form. If the patient maintains their weight and exercises, the results will last for many years.
Can the skin be uneven or bumpy after surgery?
With an experienced surgeon and modern techniques, the chances of this happening are minimal. The compression garment and control tests help to ensure that the skin is evenly applied to the treated area.
When can you go back to work or sport?
Office work is usually possible after a week, but intensive physical activity is not recommended until after 4-6 weeks. A gradual return to exercise will also help speed up recovery.
Am I eligible for the intervention if I am overweight?
Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but a body contouring surgery. The best results are achieved at a stable body weight in patients with a healthy lifestyle.
Is it possible to treat several parts of the body at the same time?
Yes, it often happens in several areas at once, such as the abdomen, thighs and hips. In this case, the operation takes longer, but the healing process is done at the same time.
How long should I wear the compression garment?
It is usually recommended for 4-6 weeks because it helps the skin to settle and reduce swelling. The exact length of time will be determined by your doctor at check-ups.
