Full body liposuction experience in Korea - arms, abdomen, thighs
Liposuction SurgeryI am planning to get liposuction on multiple areas in Korea - upper arms, abdomen, flanks, and inner thighs. Has anyone had full body liposuction in Korea? What was your recovery like when doing multiple areas at once? How long did you stay in Korea for recovery? I am worried about the compression garments - how uncomfortable are they and how long do you need to wear them? Did you need any lymphatic drainage massages afterward? I am also wondering about the total cost when doing multiple areas together vs. separately.

Multi-area liposuction (arms, abdomen, flanks, inner thighs) in one session is feasible but has limits — surgeons cap the total volume removed for safety, so very large jobs may be staged. Most patients stay in Korea about 1–2 weeks; the first days involve soreness, drainage, and bruising, improving notably by week 2. Compression garments are worn ~3–4 weeks (often 2 weeks full-time then part-time); they feel tight initially but reduce swelling and help skin retract. Lymphatic drainage massage is commonly recommended and speeds the settling of fibrosis. Doing areas together is usually more cost-effective than separate trips; get a quote that lists per-area and combined pricing, and confirm the safety cap on total fat removed.
