Types of Liposuction at BongBong

BongBong Plastic Surgery’s liposuction is not simply about removing fat. It is a personalized surgical approach that removes fat cells to reduce the areas where fat can accumulate and eliminate unwanted fat, while taking into consideration factors such as fat density and skin condition.

Full-body liposuction performed with consideration for the overall body contour can help refine the body silhouette while also contributing to an overall reduction in body weight.

For individuals with a higher amount of body fat, the procedure is customized according to the individual’s overall body shape, with an appropriate amount of fat removed from each area to achieve balanced proportions.

‘Delicate Slim Fit’ Liposuction

BongBong’s Delicate Slim Fit Liposuction is liposuction of the upper arms, an area where it is difficult to lose fat through exercise alone because there is very little muscle movement. Compared to other areas, the skin in this area is thin, and nerves and blood vessels are located close to the skin, requiring particular care during surgery.

Fat is removed evenly throughout the entire area to achieve not only a reduction in size, but also to create a straight, smooth contour along the areas of sagging on the outer and inner sides of the arms. In addition, liposuction is performed up to the armpit and bra line while considering both balance and overall body contours.

Treatment Areas

‘Corset Line’ Liposuction

Corset Line abdominal liposuction helps create a slim, defined waistline without concerns about the yo-yo effect, and is effective for body types with fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. When fat accumulates around the abdomen due to overeating, childbirth, rapid weight gain, or other factors, an individualized approach is used to create a slim, defined corset line tailored to each person’s abdominal characteristics.

Treatment Areas

‘Leggings’ Liposuction

BongBong’s Leggings Liposuction removes excess fat cells throughout the thighs to create a smooth, streamlined lower-body contour without concerns about the yo-yo effect, and is effective for body types with fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. By creating straighter lines along the inner and outer thighs and carefully removing fat to create a natural transition between the buttocks and thighs, the procedure can help make the legs appear longer and create a more lifted-looking hip line.

Why Choose BongBong for Liposuction?

BongBong Plastic Surgery uses a liposuction technique designed to minimize bleeding, pain, and swelling, allowing for faster recovery compared to conventional liposuction.

NO Unevenness

We use small-diameter cannulas that cause less tissue damage to minimize irritation and scarring, helping prevent unevenness (a condition in which the skin becomes hard or bumpy after liposuction).

Specialized Medical Equipment with Digital Negative Pressure Control

Specialized high-tech medical equipment is used to regulate the appropriate level of negative pressure during liposuction, helping prevent excessively high suction pressure.

Fat Equalization (Uniformity)

Extracorporeal Microwave Energy is used to evenly break down the fat, allowing only the fat in the desired areas to be precisely suctioned.

Liposuction Q&A

A. With appropriate medications and techniques to help prevent bleeding, the procedure can be performed safely even during menstruation. Current evidence also suggests that menstruation itself does not necessarily increase perioperative blood loss during abdominal procedures.

A. A compression garment is worn after liposuction to help reduce pain and swelling during the recovery process. Depending on your post-operative progress, you may need to wear it for approximately 1–2 months.

A. Pigmentation may remain due to friction during the incision and surgical process. However, it can be improved through the use of incision protectors, stem cell treatment, and appropriate post-operative care.
