Tumescent liposuction in LaCLINIQUE of Switzerland
About the clinic
Tumescent liposuction at LaCLINIQUE of Switzerland in Lugano uses a fluid solution and thin cannulas to remove fat. Dr. Med. Lorenzo Gasco specializes in body contouring and liposuction procedures.
How the procedure works
A tumescent solution is injected into the treatment area before fat removal. The surgeon uses thin cannulas through small incisions hidden in natural skin folds. Superficial liposculpture may also be used to shape the body contour.
Treatment takes 30–90 minutes, depending on the areas treated. Local anesthesia is typical, while general anesthesia may be used for more complex cases. It is usually day surgery, with no overnight clinic stay.
Areas may include the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, thighs, knees, calves, ankles, arms, back, chest, chin, and neck. Liposuction is not a weight-loss treatment. When skin laxity is marked, a tummy tuck may be recommended instead or alongside it.
Planning and recovery
A specialist consultation assesses fat distribution, skin quality, tissue elasticity, and body proportions. The plan includes medical photographs and treatment areas. A stable weight is required.
After surgery, patients wear a compression garment, increase movement gradually, and attend follow-up checks. Swelling and bruising are normal during the first weeks. Most people have 3–15 days of downtime, while the final result is assessed after several weeks.
LaCLINIQUE’s main Lugano center has five operating rooms. Surgical procedures are performed in accredited nursing homes in Lugano, Milan, and Naples.
