Why does excess fat develop?
Over the years, our bodies change. Factors such as
At Ivy clinics, we offer several treatments to reduce disruptive localized fat deposits.
Localized fat accumulation
In men, fat is often stored around the abdomen; in women, it is stored on the abdomen, hips and thighs. Factors such as hormones, diet, heredity and lifestyle play a role. These stubborn fat deposits are often difficult to reduce with exercise and healthy eating alone.
Treatments for excess fat
At Ivy clinics, we offer several body contouring treatments that help reduce localized fat and tighten the skin. The most commonly used treatments are lipolaser and liposuction.
Lipolaser
The lipolaser is an innovative method that both reduces localized fat deposits and tightens the skin. It is a relatively small procedure with great effect:
- Immediately visible results, which continue to improve in the following weeks.
- Skin tightening follows after several months.
- Permanent reduction of fat cells.
Indications for lipolaser: sagging jawline, hamster cheeks, neck, upper arms, abdomen, waist, back, thighs (inner and outer) and knees.
Liposuction
Liposuction, also known as liposculpture or vibroliposuction, is a surgical treatment that permanently removes excess fat cells. This is not a method to lose weight, but is ideally suited to reduce stubborn fat deposits and beautify body contours.
At Ivy clinics, our doctors work with tumescent liposuction, an innovative method that achieves excellent results. The treatment is suitable for stubborn fat on the abdomen, legs and thighs when a healthy lifestyle does not produce sufficient results.
