Wear compression and maintain skin elasticity.
Being a complete body shaping specialist, 360-degree liposuction is a conflicting, impactful surgical procedure to the simultaneous abdomen, flanks and back. To a large extent, the focus of this procedure is to minimize the subcutaneous adipose tissue and give an elegant and slender outline, but there is a considerable number of patients concerned that after their operation, they might start seeing their skin ripple, get dimpled, or get irregularities in their contours. Skin imperfections after liposuction are not necessarily the result of the procedure, but usually they are the aftermath of loss of skin elasticity, the doctor being too aggressive during suction and poor postoperative management.
At Lin Health Europe Clinic, our team considers the smooth, even hanging of the skin as the final proof of a successful operation. Our main message to the international patients coming to Turkey is that avoiding contour irregularities is a matter of combining state-of-the-art surgical instruments with a planned recovery schedule. Medical tourism in our hospital is at its best and there your skin’s structural integrity will be our constant concern throughout the transformation process.
Advanced Emulsification: The VASER Advantage
Traditional liposuction involves mechanically cutting the tissues with a cannula in a forceful back-and-forth motion that can result in a patchy injury, leading to a “cobblestone” pattern of fat and scar tissue being left behind. The surest way of doing away with such issues is by going for an energy-assisted complex tool, e.g. VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) which employs ultrasonic waves to break up the fat cells in a gentle way so that the fat cells are in a liquid form.
The surgeons of Lin Health Europe Clinic in Turkey invest in the VASER device in their service of ensuring the process of fat removal is highly standardized. Since after their liquefaction, fat cells are extracted without bumps and inequality, tearing associated with the leftover fat pockets, causing ripples on the surface is almost unnoticeable. If you want your contouring to be conducted by highly efficient and at the same time the most gentle technology of the tissue in the world aesthetic market, you should not miss our enviable clinics.
Preserving the Superficial Fat “Blanket”
One of the ways in which the patient gets severe skin rippling is an error of the surgeon at the level of “over-resection”—fat removal too much and too close to the dermis from the underside. In order for the skin to be able to act as a soft protective layer between the skin surface and the abdominal muscle wall, it needs a thin, even layer of subcutaneous adipose tissue. If the surgeon completely misses out on the removal of this superficial layer, the skin will therefore stick directly to the muscle fascia, resulting in deep furrows and tight, unnatural ripples when you move.
Lin Health Europe Clinic, a team of biological sculptors located in Turkey, always acts with great care. We concentrate on leaving a very thin but uniform layer, “blanket” of fat underneath the skin only. It makes sure that your skin has its natural, soft feel while still displaying the dramatic, tightened figure that is down below. In our view, a first-class result is one where the right moment of halting extraction is known, and this is what characterizes our surgical mastery without peer.
Inducing Neocollagenesis for Skin Retraction
Even when the fat has been removed to the maximum precision, the skin can still give rise to ripples if it is not elastic enough to “shrink-wrap” the new figure. Loose skin will get creased and ripple naturally as the volume underneath it is reduced. As a result, surgical intervention not only physically reduces the skin surface but also triggers membrane contraction.
The secret of Lin Health Europe Clinic is its dual-action method. Your thermal energy is applied by the VASER probe during your 360 liposuction and makes the skin on its underside gently heated. In this way, this thermal trauma that is controlled can lead to neocollagenesis, i.e. the body’s synthesis of new collagen and elastin fibers. This process is biological and it tightens the skin from within and it continues for three to six months, so that a smooth, taut surface comes out which thoroughly disguises the original ripples at the surface.
Postoperative Compression and Fibrosis Management
The expert surgeon must be complemented by efficient postoperative care. When the fat that has been taken out has resulted in empty spaces, these will be quickly filled up with fluid (edema) after 360 liposuction. This fluid will create permanent skin ripples when it is allowed to pool in an uneven fashion or when the early scar tissue (fibrosis) is allowed to harden into clumps.
Our clinic, Lin Health Europe Clinic, is always ready to internationally support our foreign patients in Turkey. Further to this, you will be fitted up with a medical-grade faja (compression garment) with the accompanying specialized lipo foams—these foams exert continuous, of-the-same-degree pressure on the 360-degree-treated area that prevents the fluid from pooling. Besides that, the Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) massages are imposed upon you in order to physically break down early fibrosis and pave the way for perfect healing.

FAQ:
One way to prevent rippling of the skin after liposuction is to get the procedure done by an experienced surgeon who is skilled in using an ultrasound-assisted instrument to mobilize fat as VASER does. This way, the fat will be basically drained evenly, and a thin, protective layer of fat will be left behind the skin.
A bit of lumpiness and firmness can be attributed to tissue swelling and the healing process (fibrosis) in the first several weeks after the surgery.
These pads are made of a soft, medical-grade foam that is worn beneath the compression garment. They keep the seams and folds of the garment from scratching the healing skin and also provide a completely flat, uniform layer of pressure that prevents fluid accumulation and rippling.
Our experts at Lin Health Europe Clinic in Turkey would be happy to help you if you have residual rippling or dimpling from a previous poorly done surgery. In many cases, to get the surrounding areas as smooth as possible, it will be necessary to do some fat grafting to the indentations and to use VASER technology.
Most of the swelling usually goes away in the next six weeks, but skin tightening (neocollagenesis) and scar tissue remodelling take quite a bit longer. The final perfectly smooth result is usually seen by three to six months after the surgery.
