THE RESULTS
Using Vaser technology, fat is gently sucked out from the tummy that results in a permanent change in the body shape. Even when fat is put back on, it’s distributed more evenly over the whole body as the fat cells have been removed.
Subtle results may be achieved via non-surgical liposuction called CoolSculpting.

THE PROCEDURE
Mummy Tummy Liposuction is cosmetic procedure commonly performed during a “Mummy Makeover”. It involves the use of Vaser Liposuction to remove fat and tighten skin.
Good candidates for this procedure are Women with reasonable skin, that is, not excessive amounts of loose skin, and little to no muscle separation. It is best to see our doctors to assess your situation to determine if Mummy Tummy Liposuction is suitable for you.
During a ‘mummy makeover’, some doctors often suggest a breast lift, breast augmentation or breast reduction as well.
The Vaser energy heats up the all-important “collagen fibres” causing them to contract – resulting in a tightening effect on the tummy. Liposuction on the tummy area is a ‘walk in walk out’ procedure designed to flatten, tighten and produce a more contoured flat tummy through cosmetic surgery. Performed under conscious sedation, general anaesthetic is an option (on request).

OUR EXPERIENCE
As the first practice in New South Wales to own Vaser Liposuction machines (and the most Vaser systems in the world), we take pride in delivering the best results for our patients through our wealth of experience and exceptional aftercare program.
Your initial Mummy Tummy consultation and subsequent procedure can be undertaken at one of our cosmetic clinics across Australia. This can be in either Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide or the Gold Coast. We are also opening a practice in Melbourne before the end of 2019.
We also treat many interstate and overseas patients each year at Cosmos Clinic. Therefore, we have set procedures in place for those travelling to our clinics for treatment. For travelling patients please send us images of the areas you wish to have treated, which Cosmos Clinic you’d like treatment at, and where you’re located in the description so our staff can include all the appropriate information for travelling patients as part of your personalised quote.

POST SURGERY
You will be able to return home the same day. You will be fitted into a compression garment which must be worn for up to 6 weeks, which assists in the healing process.
The procedure requires a light sedation and a local anaesthetic – with most patients requiring 3 to 5 days off work. On returning home, you will not be bed-ridden and we encourage you to move about. You can expect some fluid seepage for approximately 24 hours post procedure.
Post operative lymphatic massages are an important part of recovery and achieving optimal results and you will be required to attend the clinic for regular massages for a few weeks.
Everyone heals differently. You know your body best and we encourage you listen to it and give yourself time to heal properly. Normal daily activities can be returned to the day after the procedure, however vigorous activities such as intense exercise or sports for around 2 to 3 weeks.
To optimise your recovery process, become familiar with the do’s of Liposuction recovery:

For most patients, Tummy Liposuction alone is sufficient to correct the problem of excess skin and may present a better option for some patients than Abdominoplasty. Not only is the procedure less invasive and less traumatic than a traditional Tummy Tuck, Tummy Liposuction requires fewer incisions, leaves less scarring and does not cause displacement of the belly button. The procedure is performed under conscious sedation, minimising all associated risks and side effects, allowing for a rapid recovery time. Below outlines the main differences:
| TUMMY TUCK | VASER LIPOSUCTION |
| Large scar across the abdomen | Tiny scars |
| Best for excessive loose skin | Will tighten moderately loose skin |
| General Anaesthesia | Conscious Sedation |
| Prolonged recovery (1 Month) | Quick recovery (1 week) |
| Tummy area only | Can treat whole body |
| Will repair abdominal muscle separation | Will not help muscle separation |
| Cost: From $12,000-$16,000 | Cost: From $4,400 |
