VASER Liposuction in Tunisia: High-Definition Sculpting, Price and Recovery
VASER liposuction in Tunisia: the essentials
VASER is ultrasound-assisted liposuction. A probe passed through small incisions emits ultrasound that breaks up the fat cells before anything is aspirated. The liquefied fat is then removed with finer cannulas than conventional liposuction uses.
What that buys you is precision, not volume. Because the fat has already been broken up and the cannulas are finer, the surgeon can vary how much is taken from one spot to the next within the same area. That is the difference between reducing a shape and sculpting one — and it is the whole reason VASER exists as a separate option.
Which leads to the sentence that should govern your expectations: VASER reveals the muscle you already have. It does not build it. Removing fat around a well-developed abdominal wall makes the relief visible. Removing it around an undeveloped one gives you a flatter abdomen and no definition.
At ServiHealth it is performed at the Clinique Internationale Myron in Tunis, from €2,700 to €3,500 according to the number of areas, with a stay of 3 to 5 days. In plain arithmetic: VASER adds a flat €1,000 to any standard liposuction package. One to three hours, under general or deep local anaesthesia.
Two honest notes before you read on. The seroma risk is slightly higher than with standard liposuction, which is why the compression garment and lymphatic drainage matter more here. And VASER barely tightens skin — if laxity is your problem, you are reading the wrong page, and Renuvion J-Plasma is the right one.
What is VASER liposuction?
In conventional liposuction the cannula removes fat by mechanical action: it is pushed through the tissue and the fat is drawn out. VASER adds a step before that. A thin probe inserted through the same small incisions emits ultrasound energy that breaks the fat cells apart, turning the fat into an emulsion that can then be aspirated through finer cannulas.
Two practical consequences follow, and they are the whole case for the technique:
- Fibrous fat becomes workable. Dense tissue — the back, the male flanks, the chest — resists a mechanical cannula. Ultrasound breaks it up first, so it can be removed evenly rather than in patches.
- Finer cannulas allow finer work. The surgeon can remove a lot from one spot and very little from the one beside it, which is what sculpting means in practice.
The page you are reading is a clinic's, so here is the appropriate caution: VASER is often described as more selective towards vessels, nerves and collagen than purely mechanical aspiration, and therefore less traumatic. That is the usual account of the technique rather than a figure anyone can give you, and no comparative complication rate is quoted here because we do not have one to quote.
What is concrete is the trade-off. Ultrasound generates heat, so a thermal burn is possible if power and exposure time are badly managed — a risk standard liposuction does not carry. And the technique produces slightly more inflammatory fluid, so the risk of a seroma is slightly higher. Both are covered properly in the safety section.
The procedure takes one to three hours under general or deep local anaesthesia, with a few hours of monitoring or one night in the clinic depending on the areas treated.
VASER Hi-Def: high-definition sculpting
VASER Hi-Def — also called High Def or VASER 4D, and sometimes abdominal etching — is VASER used to accentuate muscular relief rather than simply reduce volume. The surgeon removes fat selectively around and between muscle groups: the lines of the abdominals, the obliques, the border of the pectorals.
It reveals relief that is already there. This is not a caveat in small print, it is the operating principle. Fat removed from above a well-developed abdominal wall makes that wall visible. Fat removed from above an undeveloped one leaves a flat abdomen with nothing to show. Hi-Def requires sufficiently developed underlying muscle, and that is assessed by examination, not negotiated.
The marking is where the result is decided
Before the operation, the surgeon marks your body standing, in front of a mirror, with you. That session decides how much definition you are going to have, and it is the most important conversation of the whole process — more important than the choice of technique.
Use it. Say what you want and, more usefully, say what you do not want. Levels of definition sit on a spectrum from a simply athletic outline to pronounced etching, and the one you leave the clinic with is the one agreed at that mirror.
The asymmetry worth understanding: too little definition can be refined later; too much is very difficult to reverse, because it means fat has been removed that would have to be grafted back. When in doubt, ask for less.
If you want a refined waist with no visible muscle relief at all, that is a different and entirely common request — see the section on VASER for women further down.
Which areas can be treated?
Abdomen and waist, flanks and back, the male chest, arms and thighs, and the neck and under the chin. VASER is chosen for these in particular when the fat is dense or when the point is definition rather than volume.
| Area | Why VASER is chosen here |
| Abdomen and waist | The most requested area, and where definition work is most often wanted. Stretched skin or separated muscles after pregnancy call for a tummy tuck instead. |
| Flanks and back | Denser, more fibrous fat, particularly in men. Ultrasound breaks it up where a mechanical cannula struggles. |
| Male chest | Often combined with correction of gynaecomastia — glandular tissue is not fat and no liposuction removes it. |
| Arms and thighs | Where the skin is also slack, J-Plasma may be added; for real excess, an arm lift or thigh lift. |
| Neck and under the chin | Small volumes, where the skin still has good elasticity. |
The pattern in that column is worth noticing: every limit here is a skin limit, not a fat limit. VASER removes fat precisely wherever there is fat to remove. Whether you like the result depends on whether the skin over it can retract — and on that, VASER offers only a mild firming effect.
Who is VASER for?
Three situations where VASER is the technique that earns its surcharge, and one where it does not.
1. You want definition, not only reduction
If what you want is a visible waistline, a defined outline, or muscular relief, VASER is the technique built for it. A conventional cannula reduces a volume evenly; VASER lets the surgeon take a lot from one place and almost nothing from beside it, which is what produces shape rather than just size.
2. Your fat is dense or fibrous
The back, the male flanks, the chest. Fibrous fat resists mechanical aspiration and tends to come away in patches, which is exactly how irregularity is created. Breaking it up with ultrasound first makes it removable evenly.
3. You are already lean and want the last layer
This is where the margin for error is smallest and the technique matters most. On a body with little fat left, the difference between a good result and an over-resected one is a few millilitres, and finer cannulas with pre-emulsified fat is what makes that control possible.
And when VASER is not the answer
If you simply want less volume, on firm skin, in one or two areas, standard liposuction does that job and costs €1,000 less. If your main problem is loose skin, no amount of ultrasound fixes it. And if you are carrying significant excess weight, liposuction of any kind is the wrong operation — see gastric balloon, gastric band or gastric bypass in Tunisia.
A surgeon who tells you the standard technique is enough for your case is giving you the better advice, not the cheaper one.
Are you a candidate for VASER?
The procedure suits someone in good health, at or near a stable weight, with localised fat deposits that resist diet and exercise, and with skin that still has good elasticity. For Hi-Def work there is one further requirement: sufficiently developed muscle underneath for the definition to show.
| If this is you | What usually fits better |
| You want a simple reduction in volume, on firm skin | Standard liposuction, €1,000 less |
| Your skin is slack as well | VASER with J-Plasma, or J-Plasma with standard liposuction |
| You have real excess skin | A tummy tuck, arm lift or thigh lift |
| You want Hi-Def but have little muscle development | Train first, then reassess. There is nothing for the fat removal to reveal. |
| You want the harvested fat used | VASER combined with a BBL in the same session |
The procedure is postponed or ruled out in these situations, each assessed individually by the surgeon and the anaesthetist:
- Significant excess weight or obesity — liposuction is not a weight-loss method
- Skin with poor elasticity
- Unstable weight, or weight loss still in progress
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Active smoking that has not been stopped beforehand
- A bleeding or clotting disorder, or anticoagulant treatment
- Any condition that contraindicates anaesthesia
No body-fat threshold is set as a rule, because the assessment is anatomical rather than numerical: what matters is where your fat sits, how elastic your skin is, and what is underneath. That is settled by examination.
VASER for women: definition does not mean muscle
Most images used to sell VASER show a man with a visible six-pack. That is one possible outcome of the technique, and it is not what most women who have it are asking for.
The most common request from women is a refined waist and a smooth outline, with no visible muscle relief at all. VASER does that extremely well, and it is a legitimate, frequent use of the technique rather than a lesser version of it. The ultrasound and the finer cannulas serve precision; what the precision is used for is your decision.
Definition is a dial, not a switch
Between "a bit less here" and pronounced abdominal etching there is a whole range, and where you land on it is chosen deliberately:
- Contour only. The waist comes in, the outline is cleaner, nothing reads as muscular.
- Soft definition. A hint of shape at the flanks and the lower abdomen, visible in certain light.
- Hi-Def. Muscle borders deliberately accentuated.
This is settled at the pre-operative marking, standing in front of a mirror with your surgeon. It is the single most important conversation of the process, and it is the moment to be explicit about what you do not want. "Nothing that looks like abs" is a perfectly clear instruction and a surgeon will follow it.
One reason to lean conservative: too little definition can be refined later. Too much is very hard to undo, because reversing it means grafting fat back into a place it was taken from. If you are unsure, ask for less and keep the option.
And a practical note for anyone whose body changes with pregnancy or weight: the fat cells removed do not come back, but the ones that remain respond to weight gain as they always did. A defined result is a result that depends on a stable weight.
How much does VASER liposuction cost in Tunisia?
From €2,700 to €3,500, depending on how many areas are treated, with a stay of 3 to 5 days.
Read as a surcharge it becomes clear: VASER adds a flat €1,000 to any standard liposuction package. Same areas, same anaesthesia, same stay. The €1,000 buys the ultrasound system and the precision it allows — nothing else about the operation changes.
So the question is answerable rather than vague: is precision what your case needs? Definition work, fibrous fat, or an already-lean body — usually yes. A simple reduction on firm skin — usually no, and your surgeon should say so.
What the price covers: the consultation, the procedure, the anaesthesia, the compression garment, the transfers and the follow-up after you return home.
What it does not cover: flights and the pre-operative tests, which you have done in your own country around fifteen days before.
Two costs to budget separately, and they matter more on this technique than on the others. Lymphatic drainage sessions, recommended more often after VASER, which happen near you after you are home. And a second compression garment, so you can alternate over four to six weeks of continuous wear. Ask us to confirm the accommodation line in writing for your own case before you book.
| Package | Areas | With VASER | Standard liposuction | Stay |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Simple | 1 to 2 areas | 2700 € | 1700 € | 3 days |
| Medium | 3 to 4 areas | 3250 € | 2250 € | 4 days |
| 360° | Abdomen, waist, flanks, back | 3350 € | 2350 € | 4 days |
| Complete | 5 areas or more | 3500 € | 2500 € | 5 days |
Your pathway, step by step
ServiHealth organises and coordinates the stay. The medical decisions belong to the surgeon and the anaesthetist; everything around them is our work.
| Stage | What happens |
| First contact | You send photographs of the areas concerned, front and side, and your medical history. Say at this stage how much definition you are looking for. A first review is carried out remotely before you spend anything. |
| Quote | A written quote naming the package, the areas planned, the technique recommended, what the price covers and what it does not. |
| Preparation | Pre-operative tests around 15 days before surgery, in your own country, following the protocol you are given. Dates and flights fixed. |
| Arrival | You are met at Tunis-Carthage airport. Send us your boarding pass and a photograph of what you are travelling in, so we can find you quickly. |
| Consultation | Examination by the surgeon: the areas, the texture of the fat, the elasticity of the skin, and — for definition work — the muscle underneath. The anaesthetic consultation follows. |
| Pre-operative marking | Standing, in front of a mirror, with the surgeon. This is where the level of definition is agreed. Say what you want and what you do not want — this conversation decides the result more than the technique does. |
| Procedure | One to three hours at the Clinique Internationale Myron, under general or deep local anaesthesia. |
| Afterwards | A few hours of monitoring, or one night, depending on the extent. The compression garment is fitted. |
| Rest of the stay | Post-operative checks before you fly home. Three to five days in total according to your package. |
| After you return | Remote follow-up with a contact you can reach. Lymphatic drainage where recommended, arranged near you. The result is assessed from six months. |
The marking deserves emphasis because it is unique to this technique. On a standard liposuction the plan is which areas to treat; on VASER the plan is also how much relief, and that is agreed with you looking at yourself rather than described in a quote.

Is VASER liposuction safe? Risks and precautions
VASER carries every risk of liposuction, plus two that come from using ultrasound. Both lists belong here, before you book.
Specific to ultrasound:
- Thermal burn. Ultrasound generates heat. If power or exposure time is badly managed, a burn is possible — a risk standard liposuction does not carry. This one is tied directly to the surgeon's experience with the device, which is a reasonable thing to ask about before you book.
- Seroma. The technique produces a little more inflammatory fluid than conventional liposuction, so fluid collecting in the treated area is somewhat more likely. It is usually manageable and is drained if necessary.
Common to all liposuction: contour irregularities, bruising, haematoma, infection, altered sensation, and — rarely — complications of anaesthesia. The volume aspirated in one session is capped by safety thresholds that do not move because of the technique.
Two things reduce your risk, and both are your responsibility:
- Wear the compression garment continuously for the four to six weeks you are told. It controls swelling, helps the skin settle evenly, and is the main defence against seroma.
- Have the lymphatic drainage sessions if they are recommended. They are recommended more often after VASER than after standard liposuction, for exactly the fluid reason above.
Smoking deserves its own line. Nicotine narrows the small vessels the skin needs to heal and retract over the new contour. Stopping for the period your surgeon specifies is the most useful thing you can do for your own result.
Declare in full: all medication including anticoagulants, any bleeding or clotting disorder, all allergies, and every previous operation on the areas concerned.
And one expectation to set plainly: no technique guarantees a smooth result, and no complication rate is quoted on this page because we do not have a sourced one to quote. Results vary from one patient to another, and your surgeon will tell you what is realistic in your case.
How long is recovery?
Back to non-strenuous work in five to ten days, sport at three to four weeks, four to six weeks in the compression garment. Recovery is comparable to other liposuction techniques — the ultrasound changes what the surgeon can do with the fat, not how you feel afterwards.
| When | What to expect |
| First days | Swelling, bruising and aching in the treated areas. Prescribed painkillers are generally sufficient. Walking from the first day. |
| 5 to 10 days | Back to work, provided it involves no physical effort. |
| Weeks 1 to 6 | Compression garment worn continuously, then tapered as your surgeon directs. Lymphatic drainage sessions in the early weeks if recommended. |
| 3 to 4 weeks | Sport resumes, on your surgeon's advice. |
| 6 to 12 months | The definition emerges fully as the last swelling resolves. |
The garment and the drainage matter more on this technique than on the others, and for a specific reason rather than a general one: VASER produces slightly more fluid, so both are working against a seroma, not just against swelling. Treat them as part of the operation. Pack a second garment so you can alternate while the first is washed.
A warning about definition work in particular. Swelling hides relief completely. At three weeks a Hi-Def result looks like an ordinary liposuction and patients regularly conclude it has failed. The relief is the last thing to appear, not the first.
When will I see the final result?
Between six and twelve months, and definition work sits at the longer end of that range.
- First weeks. Swelling hides the new shape entirely. You may look larger than before the operation. Any relief that was sculpted is completely invisible.
- Three months. The outline begins to appear. Minor unevenness at this stage is common and often resolves on its own.
- Six months. Close to the result. The earliest point at which judging it is meaningful.
- Twelve months. Settled, with the finest definition fully emerged.
Photograph yourself before you travel, in consistent light and the same positions, and again at three, six and twelve months. This matters more for VASER than for any other technique, because what changes is shape rather than size and your memory of your own outline is unreliable.
About durability: the fat cells removed do not grow back, but the ones that remain can enlarge if you gain weight, and new weight tends to settle in areas that were not treated. A defined result is conditional on a stable weight — more so than a simple volume reduction, because definition depends on the fat layer staying thin.
VASER also has a mild firming effect on the skin, considerably less than J-Plasma. It should be treated as a bonus rather than as part of the plan.
Results vary from one patient to another, and your surgeon will tell you at the consultation what is realistic in your case.
VASER, MicroAire, J-Plasma or standard liposuction: which one?
Four techniques, four different problems. The price order is not a quality order.
Ask what the obstacle is in your case, and the answer picks itself:
- Definition, fibrous fat, or an already-lean body → VASER. Ultrasound breaks the fat up so it can be removed precisely.
- Large volumes, several areas, or a revision → MicroAire. A vibrating cannula, no energy in the tissue.
- Mild to moderate skin laxity → J-Plasma. The only one of the four that treats skin.
- One or two areas, firm skin, volume only → standard liposuction. Nothing else is needed.
| Technique | How it works | Best suited to | From (1–2 areas) |
| Standard liposuction | Manual mechanical aspiration | Volume reduction on firm skin | 1700 € |
| MicroAire (PAL) | Mechanical vibration, no energy in the tissue | Large volumes, several areas, revision | 2200 € |
| VASER | Ultrasound, selective fat fragmentation | Definition, fibrous areas, lean patients | 2700 € |
| J-Plasma | Cold plasma, collagen contraction | Mild to moderate skin laxity | 3200 € |
They are not mutually exclusive. VASER and J-Plasma are frequently combined when there is both fat to sculpt and skin to tighten — one works on the fat, the other on the envelope over it.
And the point worth repeating because the grid invites the opposite reading: paying €1,000 more for precision you do not need buys you nothing. If your case is a straightforward reduction, the standard technique is not the budget option, it is the correct one.
Your surgeons
VASER liposuction at ServiHealth is performed by qualified plastic surgeons trained on the system, at the Clinique Internationale Myron in Tunis.
- Dr Taher Djemal — plastic and aesthetic surgery, practising in Tunisia since the early 1990s.
- Dr Abir Ben Ouaghrem — plastic and aesthetic surgery, with particular attention to skin quality and fat distribution when planning the areas.
The surgeon assigned to your case is named in your quote before you travel, and you meet them in person before anything is decided.
On VASER the operator matters twice over — once for the burn risk, which is directly tied to how the ultrasound is managed, and once for the aesthetic judgement, because sculpting is a design decision as much as a surgical one. Questions worth asking:
- How many VASER procedures have you performed, and how many with definition work?
- Looking at me: how much definition is realistic, and how much would you advise against?
- Would standard liposuction give me the same result for €1,000 less?
- Do you expect to recommend J-Plasma as well, and why?
- What would make you advise against operating on me?
The third question is the one that reveals most. A surgeon willing to tell you the surcharge would buy you nothing is a surgeon whose other advice you can trust.
Which technique to use, how much definition to create, and whether to operate at all is a medical decision and belongs to the surgeon, not to ServiHealth.
Why have VASER liposuction in Tunisia?
Tunisia has run an organised medical travel sector for decades: private clinics built around international patients, surgeons trained to European standards, and costs that reflect Tunisian overheads rather than shortcuts in the operation.
What matters specifically for VASER:
- High-definition work is where the price gap is widest. Hi-Def sculpting is among the most expensive cosmetic procedures in Western Europe, and a €2,700 to €3,500 package is a materially different proposition.
- Distance. Two to three hours from most of Western Europe, with direct connections from several Gulf hubs.
- The marking happens in person, before the operation, standing in front of a mirror with the surgeon who will operate — not agreed by email.
- English throughout, from the first exchange to the follow-up after you are home.
Three things to weigh honestly, and they are heavier on this technique than on the others:
- The result takes six to twelve months and definition is the last thing to appear. You will spend that time at home, and at three months you will think it has not worked. Know who you contact and make sure they will still answer at month nine.
- Lymphatic drainage is recommended more often after VASER, and it happens where you live. Check availability and cost before you travel, not after.
- Over-resection is the one thing that is hard to correct. If you are drawn to the most dramatic result you have seen online, that is the moment to ask for less rather than more.
Many patients combine VASER with a BBL, using the sculpted fat. That is sensible when surgically coherent and poor when driven by the travel budget. Your surgeon decides what can reasonably be done in one session.
Before you travel: a checklist
Work through this before you book, not the week before you fly.
| Category | What to do |
| Documents | A valid passport, and a visa if your nationality requires one for Tunisia. Check the expiry date. |
| Photographs | Recent photographs, front and side, in natural light — and keep them. Definition emerges over six to twelve months and you will not remember your own outline accurately. |
| Decide your level of definition | Contour only, soft definition, or Hi-Def. Bring reference images of results you like and of results you do not want. This is the conversation that decides your outcome. |
| Pre-operative tests | Completed in your own country around 15 days before, following the protocol you are given. |
| Medication and allergies | A full list, anticoagulants included, plus any bleeding or clotting disorder. |
| Previous surgery | Every previous operation on the areas concerned, with dates. |
| Weight | Stable for several months, with no strict diet in the preceding weeks. A defined result depends on a stable weight afterwards too. |
| Smoking | Stop for the period your surgeon specifies. |
| Lymphatic drainage | Recommended more often after VASER. Find out what is available near you and what it costs before you travel. |
| To pack | The compression garment is provided — bring a second one so you can alternate over four to six weeks. Loose, comfortable clothing that fits over it. |
| Your calendar | Five to ten days before desk work, three to four weeks before sport, and no dated event you want to look your best for inside six months. |
Considering more than one procedure in the same stay? Read the relevant pages first: standard liposuction, MicroAire, Renuvion J-Plasma, BBL or gynaecomastia surgery in Tunisia. What can reasonably be combined in one session is decided by your surgeon.
Frequently asked questions about VASER Liposuction in Tunisia
From €2,700 to €3,500, depending on how many areas are treated, with a stay of 3 to 5 days. Read as a surcharge it is simpler: VASER adds a flat €1,000 to any standard liposuction package. The price covers the consultation, the procedure, the anaesthesia, the compression garment, the transfers and the follow-up after you return. Flights and the pre-operative tests are not included.
Only if you already have them. VASER Hi-Def removes fat selectively around the muscle so the relief underneath shows through — it reveals what is there, it does not create it. If there is no developed muscle beneath, removing the fat gives you a flatter abdomen and no definition. That is the honest answer, and a surgeon who promises you a six-pack without examining your muscle is selling you something they cannot deliver.
Standard liposuction aspirates fat mechanically and reduces volume. VASER first breaks the fat up with ultrasound, then removes the liquefied fat with finer cannulas, which lets the surgeon vary how much is taken from one spot to the next within the same area. That is what makes sculpting possible. If all you want is less volume on firm skin, standard liposuction does it and costs €1,000 less.
They address different things. VASER works on fat — breaking it up so it can be removed precisely. J-Plasma works on skin — delivering energy under it to tighten mild laxity. VASER has a slight firming effect as a by-product, but it is clearly less than J-Plasma's. The two can be combined in one operation when there is both fat to sculpt and skin to tighten.
Men are a large share of VASER patients, and the technique suits male anatomy well: the flanks, back and chest carry denser, more fibrous fat that ultrasound breaks up more readily than a cannula alone. Chest treatment in men is often combined with correction of gynaecomastia, which is a separate condition — glandular tissue, not fat, and it does not respond to liposuction of any kind.
It is surgery, with the risks of any liposuction, plus one specific to the technology: ultrasound generates heat, so a thermal burn is possible if the power or exposure time is badly managed. That risk is directly tied to the surgeon's experience with the device, which is a fair thing to ask about before you book. In trained hands it is a well-established technique.
Slightly higher than with standard liposuction, yes, because the technique produces a little more inflammatory fluid. A seroma is a collection of fluid in the treated area; it is usually manageable, and it is drained if needed. Two things reduce the risk, and both are on you: wearing the compression garment continuously for the four to six weeks you are told, and having the lymphatic drainage sessions if your surgeon recommends them.
No. VASER has a mild firming effect, noticeably less than J-Plasma's. If skin laxity is part of your problem, your surgeon will tell you whether J-Plasma should be added, or whether the laxity is beyond what any tightening can do and a lifting procedure is the honest answer.
Three to five days, depending on the package: 3 days for simple, 4 for medium and 360°, 5 for the complete package. That covers the consultation, the pre-operative marking, the procedure, the monitoring and the first post-operative checks before you fly home.
Expect swelling, bruising and aching in the treated areas rather than sharp pain, with prescribed painkillers generally sufficient. It is comparable to other liposuction techniques. The technique changes what the surgeon can do with the fat, not how the recovery feels.
Very little, and VASER is the technique where that matters least. You are paying for shape and definition, not for mass: the point is the outline and the relief, not the number on the scales. If weight is the issue, this is not the operation.
The incisions are a few millimetres long and are placed in natural folds wherever possible. They become difficult to find. Hi-Def work uses several more entry points than a simple volume reduction, because the surgeon approaches the area from different directions — still a few millimetres each, but there are more of them.
Yes, and this is the most common request from women: a refined waist and a smooth outline, with no visible muscle relief at all. How much definition you want is a decision, not a default — it is settled at the pre-operative marking, standing in front of a mirror with the surgeon. Say plainly what you do not want. Too much definition is far harder to undo than too little.
For high-definition work, yes in practice: the result is the muscle underneath, so there has to be muscle for the fat removal to reveal. Regular training improves what Hi-Def can show. For a simple waist refinement without visible relief, it is not required — the aim there is the outline, not the muscle.
It is recommended more often after VASER than after standard liposuction, because the technique produces a little more inflammatory fluid and drainage helps clear it and reduces the risk of a seroma. Whether it is prescribed in your case is your surgeon's call. The sessions take place after you are home, so find out what is available near you and what it costs before you travel.
Yes, and it is a frequent pairing: the waist and flanks are sculpted and the fat removed is purified and used to reshape the buttocks in the same session. The contrast between a defined waist and a fuller buttock is a large part of why the two are done together. Whether it suits your anatomy and your fat reserve is decided by the surgeon at the consultation.
