It frequently occurs as a result of rapid weight reduction that fatty tissue is reduced and the skin above it appears to be “too big”. While excess skin tissue normally shrinks within a few weeks, depending on the individual condition of the patient, this may or may not occur, with this again depending on age, since the weakening of connective tissue and slackening of skin is evidently a consequence of the natural ageing process. Cellulite may occur.

Many people, both men and women, suffer from sagging belly tissue. Drastic loss of weight, pregnancy or the natural ageing process causes belly tissue to sag. Superfluous skin normally shrinks in a few weeks, including after liposuction, but this is not always the case. The consequences are slack, pendulous folds of skin which are more or less pronounced.

Sharp variations in weight, particularly when a lot of weight is rapidly lost, causes slack, pendulous skin. This is frequently also the case after pregnancy but also as a result of the natural ageing process. Superfluous tissue normally shrinks, but the shrinkage is also dependent on age, sportiness and with the form of the changes in weight.

Liposuction has by now become one of the most frequent operations in Germany.

The issue of excess pounds and padding cuts across every generation and when it is problematic, can no longer be controlled merely through a change in diet or by corresponding training measures.

At the same time, an operation should be the last step in a series of measures for feeling well again in one’s own body.

It is not always a breast which is too small or a drooping breast which generates a desire for a breast operation. In many cases, patients wish to reduce breasts which are much too big.

A beautiful aesthetic body is in its holistic definition a body with harmonious proportions, taut skin and a well-trained musculature.

The harmonious agreement of proportions can be disturbed in several ways. The typical problem areas in women as well as in men inevitably arise during life, even with adequate sporting activities and healthy nutrition.
