Tumescent liposuction in Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery
About the clinic
Tumescent liposuction at Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery in Ankara, Turkey, offers a focused method for body contouring. The procedure uses the "wet technique" to help patients reshape areas like the abdomen, waist, and thighs. The clinic is led by Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır, who is known for performing Turkey's second full face transplant and completing a research fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic.
Advanced Liposuction Techniques
The clinic uses the tumescent technique to improve patient safety. Before removing fat, the surgeon injects a solution containing adrenaline and a local anesthetic. This mixture constricts blood vessels to reduce bleeding and bruising. It also softens the fat cells, making them easier to remove while helping with pain relief after the surgery. For specific body needs, the clinic also offers:
- VASER liposuction using ultrasonic energy to break down fat.
- Laser-assisted technology for skin tightening during fat removal.
- Power-assisted (PAL) methods for efficient treatment of larger areas.
- Classical liposuction for standard contouring needs.
Targeted Treatment Areas
This procedure treats many parts of the body where stubborn fat persists. Patients can choose to address the hips, arms, or back. The technique is also effective for smaller zones like the inner knees or the area under the chin. Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır evaluates each patient's skin elasticity and body mass index to select the right approach for these areas.
Specialist Expertise and Care
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır brings significant surgical experience to every case. He is an active member of the American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery and the Turkish Society of Plastic Surgery. His background in reconstructive microsurgery helps him handle complex body contouring with precision. The clinic provides support for international patients in both English and German to help with communication.
Recovery and Results
Most patients return to their daily routines within a few days. A compression garment must be worn for 4 to 6 weeks to support the new body shape. While initial changes are visible quickly, the final results typically show within 1 to 3 months. The use of local or general anesthesia depends on the size of the treated area and the patient's health evaluation.

Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery: more details about the clinic
Surgical Expertise and Statistics
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır attained Professor status in 2019. He received Associate Professor status in 2011. His career includes research on composite tissue transplantation at the Cleveland Clinic. This experience shapes his work in face and limb reconstruction.
The practice reports high success rates for microvascular free tissue transfers. These complex procedures maintain a success rate of 95% or higher. Dr. Nasır also performed notable face transplant work in Turkey. This background supports both aesthetic and functional patient goals.
Plastic and Reconstructive Specialties
The clinic provides a variety of aesthetic and restorative surgeries:
- Rhinoplasty – addresses both aesthetic shape and functional breathing.
- Facial Rejuvenation – includes facelifts, blepharoplasty, and chin aesthetics.
- Body Contouring – offers lipoabdominoplasty, combining tummy tucks with liposuction.
- Gynecomastia Surgery – uses VASER or laser-assisted liposuction for male breast enlargement.
Specialists use the Simon Classification to stage gynecomastia. This helps determine whether surgical excision or liposuction is needed. Tummy tuck options are personalized based on patient needs. These range from mini-abdominoplasty to extended techniques.
Reconstructive and Hand Surgery
Reconstructive care focuses on tissue loss from trauma, burns, and tumors. The clinic uses a "reconstructive elevator" approach. This method matches surgical options to specific patient needs. Surgeons perform microvascular free tissue transfers for complex defects.
Hand surgery addresses conditions involving nerves, tendons, and bones. Surgeons treat acute fractures and nerve lacerations. They also perform toe-to-hand finger transfers to restore movement and sensation.
Gender-affirming pathways are available for transfeminine and transmasculine patients:
- Phalloplasty – uses the gold-standard Radial Forearm Free Flap (RFFF) technique.
- Metoidioplasty – creates functional structures using natural anatomical tissues.
- Facial Feminization (FFS) – involves planning across multiple facial regions.
- Chest Masculinization – includes mastectomy and chest contouring.
Specialists emphasize medical safety during these transitions. Patients must pause hormone therapy before surgery to reduce blood clot risks. Nurses monitor tissue color and temperature every hour after flap transfers.
Technology and Diagnostic Capabilities
The clinic uses several diagnostic tools to plan surgeries. Electromyography (EMG) measures nerve conduction velocity for hand injuries. MRI and CT scans help map tissue structures. For gynecomastia, breast ultrasound or mammograms confirm tissue health.
Treatment technologies include modern energy-based systems. Surgeons use VASER, laser-assisted, and power-assisted liposuction. They also apply radiofrequency tools and ultrasonic-wave devices. These technologies liquefy fat cells while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.
Complex wounds are managed with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (VAC). This system reduces edema and increases blood flow to support healing. All microsurgery is performed under operating microscopes.
International Patient Services
The clinic treats international patients with a health-tourism-oriented approach. Staff provide medical guidance in English and German. This means clear communication throughout long rehabilitation periods. Postoperative care includes detailed dressing and medication instructions.
Rehabilitation accounts for 50% of total treatment success. The clinic coordinates with therapists for customized splints and physiotherapy. Early mobilization is encouraged to prevent joint stiffness. Surgeons also provide sensory re-education programs for nerve repair patients.
