Dr. Dana: A Leading Expert in Liposuction in Europe
Dr. Dana stands out as one of the most experienced physicians in the field of liposuction in Europe, with a remarkable track record spanning over 35 years. His practice, located in Calpe on Spain's Costa Blanca, serves as a hub for patients seeking thorough consultations to determine the most suitable liposuction method for their individual needs. Additionally, Dr. Dana explores alternative solutions for body contouring, including the fat-dissolving injection and weight loss programs utilizing fat burners, to address various figure-related concerns.

For more than half of the population, dissatisfaction with one's body shape remains a significant life challenge. Despite having tried numerous diets and engaged in daily exercise routines, many individuals face persistent frustration, as stubborn fatty deposits often resist conventional weight loss methods. This reality has led to an increasing interest in finding lasting solutions through medical interventions, particularly the option to surgically remove excess fat through liposuction.

It is reasonable to consider that liposuction could offer an effective solution to your body shape issues. Below, we provide an overview of the liposuction method and its evolution over the years.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The origins of liposuction can be traced back to the pioneering work of Italians Dr. Arpad and Dr. Giorgio Fisher, along with French Professor Dr. Illouz from Paris, who is credited with its official discovery. Dr. Dana received specialized training under Prof. Illouz, attaining a certification in liposuction techniques.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thirty years ago, Dr. Pierre Fournier revolutionized the approach to liposuction by introducing a new technique that utilized a syringe-based method. By replacing the mechanical suction traditionally used in fat removal with a gentle, manageable suction generated from a 60 ml disposable syringe, Dr. Fournier paired this method with a very fine suction cannula measuring less than 4 mm in diameter. This technique is further enhanced by the use of the so-called tumescent wet method, which prepares the tissue for fat extraction.

Dr. Dana's introduction to this innovative method came personally from Dr. Fournier in 1989. From that point, Dr. Dana has integrated this technique into his standard practice, successfully applying it to several hundred patients. As the first and most experienced German physician to adopt this method, Dr. Dana attests that it surpasses all other liposuction techniques in terms of safety, effectiveness, and precision. Unfortunately, few practitioners adopt this approach due to its labor-intensive nature and the limited opportunities available for training.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When considering modern liposuction, the journey begins with an in-depth consultation between patient and physician. Dr. Dana actively listens to the patient's desires and formulates a detailed treatment plan accordingly. Depending on individual cases and preferences, the choice between local anesthesia and general anesthesia is made.

The actual procedure typically lasts about one hour. Following anesthesia, small incisions are made discreetly situated within natural skin folds, rendering them invisible post-recovery. Subsequently, the tissue is prepared using a specialized fluid designed to stabilize the fat cells. After a brief waiting period, the targeted fat cells are gently and painlessly aspirated using specialized extraction instruments.

This advanced method allows for the removal of relatively large amounts of fatty tissue, although Dr. Dana adheres to a recommended limit of approximately 3 to 5 liters per procedure. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities within a few days following the operation.

Regrettably, Dr. Dana has not offered extensive liposuction procedures in recent years. This change arose from the closure of the affiliated clinic in Denia, where surgeries had been performed for three decades, resulting in the dissolution of Dr. Dana’s team. However, he continues to provide smaller-scale liposuction procedures targeting localized fat deposits, such as double chins. These outpatient procedures can be conveniently conducted at his practice, ensuring patient safety and comfort.

For those interested in exploring their options for body contouring, Dr. Dana's expertise and commitment to patient care make him a trusted source for professional guidance and effective treatment solutions. With his deep knowledge and experience in liposuction, prospective patients can feel confident that they will receive personalized care tailored to help them achieve their aesthetic goals.
