What is Lipomatic and How Does It Work?

Lipomatic is one of the most advanced techniques for localized fat removal. It uses vibration technology and 360-degree rotating cannulas to break up and extract fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia or deep sedation, and unlike traditional liposuction, the risk of nerve and vessel damage is very low.The mechanism of Lipomatic is based on rapid, synchronized vibrations that emulsify and release fat cells. This method is FDA-approved and is considered the gold standard in body contouring in many leading aesthetic clinics worldwide.

Applications of Lipomatic

Lipomatic can be used to remove localized fat from various areas:

  • Abdomen and flanks
  • Back (bra line fat)
  • Arms
  • Thighs (inner and outer)
  • Knees and calves
  • Double chin and jawline
  • Buttocks (in combination with fat transfer)

In some cases, the fat extracted via Lipomatic can be purified and reused for fat injection in the face or buttocks (a process known as fat transfer).

Advantages of Lipomatic Compared to Traditional Methods

  • Shorter recovery time (usually return to daily activities after 2–3 days)
  • Lower risk of infection, clots, and systemic complications
  • Higher precision in body contouring
  • No need for general anesthesia in most cases
  • Possibility to reuse extracted fat for enhancement of other areas

According to research published on ScienceDirect, patients report high satisfaction rates, especially in abdominal, flank, and arm regions.

Procedure Steps

Lipomatic is performed in a clinical, sterile environment. The steps include:

  1. Consultation and assessment to identify target areas
  2. Local anesthesia or sedation (depending on the patient)
  3. Micro-incisions and cannula insertion
  4. Fat extraction using the device’s vibration system
  5. Application of compression garments post-procedure

Pre- and Post-Procedure Care

Before the procedure:

  • Blood tests and anesthesia assessment if needed
  • Avoid blood thinners and smoking at least 2 weeks before

After the procedure:

  • Wear compression garments for 4 to 6 weeks
  • Take prescribed antibiotics and anti-inflammatories
  • Avoid intense activities and exercise for 2–3 weeks
  • Consider lymphatic massage to reduce swelling

Who Is a Good Candidate for Lipomatic?

  • Individuals with stable weight and BMI under 30
  • Presence of fat resistant to diet and exercise
  • Relatively elastic skin for better tightening post-fat removal
  • No uncontrolled underlying health conditions

Results and Longevity

Final results of Lipomatic usually appear within 1 to 3 months and can last for years with a healthy lifestyle. While fat cells removed are permanently gone, weight gain may enlarge remaining fat cells in untreated areas.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, over 90% of patients are satisfied with their post-Lipomatic body appearance.

Comparison Table: Lipomatic vs. Traditional Liposuction

Feature Lipomatic Traditional Liposuction

Recovery Period 2–3 days 7–10 days
Contouring Precision Very high Moderate
Bruising Level Less More
Fat Reuse Capability Yes No

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can the fat come back after Lipomatic? While the removed fat cells do not return, weight gain can affect untreated areas.
  • Is Lipomatic painful? With local anesthesia or sedation, pain is minimal.
  • Will the skin sag afterward? If the skin has good elasticity, it will tighten well. If not, complementary treatments like RF or surgery may help.

Consultation with a Specialist
