An effective and highly sought-after invasive method of plastic surgery for the removal of excess fat from individual parts, specifically the hips, is gentle liposuction, which forms and improves the figure with the help of embedded tumescent substance and suction of subcutaneous adipose tissue.
Premier Clinic describes liposuction as removal of localised subcutaneous fat through a cannula. Removing excess skin is a different surgical task. The clinic’s body-lifting page includes the hips among the areas where excess skin and subcutaneous fat can be removed.
| Concern | Procedure description to read |
|---|---|
| Localised fat deposits | Liposuction removes fat through a cannula; it is not a treatment for excess body weight. |
| Loose or overhanging skin | Body lifting involves surgical removal of excess skin and subcutaneous fat. |
Skin elasticity also matters: the tumescent liposuction information explains that loose skin can remain after fat removal. These descriptions do not establish which operation is suitable for an individual person.
Read the body-lifting procedure description alongside the liposuction information, then contact Premier Clinic for an individual assessment.

Liposuction of the hips has a positive effect from an aesthetic point of view, it helps to increase self-confidence, improve the appearance of the body by reducing adipose tissue, with minimal burden on the body.
Liposuction of the hips is performed under local anesthesia. Excess fat is then sucked off by means of special liposuction cannulas connected to a suction device. The anesthetic effect lasts almost 20 hours and no suturing is required.
In addition, laser liposuction of the flanks uses laser beams by targeting the pulverization of fat cells before aspiration, which results in easier removal, a lower number of swellings or bruises, less stress for the body and postoperative recovery time is even shorter.
The time required for hip liposuction is less than 2 hours depending on the size of the treated area. After the procedure, the patient is put on elastic compression underwear and the patient goes, preferably accompanied, to home treatment.
Premier Clinic publishes separate information about liposuction methods and treatment areas. The hips and abdomen are areas; tumescent and vibration liposuction are method names. Reading a method page alongside an area page can help you prepare more specific questions for your consultation.
The abdominal liposuction page describes treatment of the abdomen using a tumescent technique. The vibration liposuction page describes the use of vibrating cannulas with a tumescent solution. These pages explain different aspects of liposuction, rather than presenting the body area and method as interchangeable terms.
